I love examples of why it's wrong to equate the actions of a faction with the whole people. Israelis are not Netanyahu, Palestinians are not Hamas, Russians are not Putin, and Americans are not Trump. We can argue about culpability of citizens in the actions of their leaders, much as we can argue whether a person's parents are responsible for their behavior, but whether they're effective or not these protestors, and people like them, restore some of my faith in humanity.
It's always the young adults who are fighting against the evils of the old leaders, isn't it? I'm telling you, the world needs Carousel.
