I heard it the same way as Galloway – an unabashed celebration of five hundred years of Western colonialism and imperialism, otherwise known as “Western civilization.”We also learn in George’s monologue that the person supposedly making a statement in a hearing from Ghislaine Maxwell’s prison in Maxwell’s voice was not Ghisl
