Mix Mistress Alice💄<p>"In early 1964, Jean Ziegler, a young Swiss politician, received a phone call from a man claiming to represent Ernesto Che Guevara, the Cuban revolutionary and minister of industry. Che would be in Geneva in March for a UN conference on trade policy, and some comrades had suggested Jean might be his chauffeur during his stay. Was Ziegler available for the gig?</p><p>Today, in his tenth decade of life, Ziegler is Switzerland's most notorious public intellectual. That's because over the course of writing about 30 books, serving for close to three decades in the Swiss parliament, and relentlessly crusading for left-wing causes in his free time, Ziegler has made a career of unsparing criticism of his home country, and its outsize influence on the rest of the world.”—Atossa Araxia Abrahamian</p><p>‘Here lives the Monster’s Brain’: the Man who Exposed Switzerland’s Dirty Secrets &gt;</p><p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/news/2025/feb/13/here-lives-the-monsters-brain-the-man-who-exposed-switzerlands-dirty-secrets" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/news/2025/feb/</span><span class="invisible">13/here-lives-the-monsters-brain-the-man-who-exposed-switzerlands-dirty-secrets</span></a></p><p><a href="https://todon.eu/tags/JeanZiegler" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JeanZiegler</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/history" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>history</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/intellectual" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>intellectual</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>politics</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/Switzerland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Switzerland</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>author</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/UN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UN</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/TradePolicies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TradePolicies</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/coups" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>coups</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/Marxism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Marxism</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/revolution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>revolution</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>capitalism</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/criticism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>criticism</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/secrets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>secrets</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/mission" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mission</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/Congo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Congo</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/DRC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DRC</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USA</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/kleptocrats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kleptocrats</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/wealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wealth</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/Geneva" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Geneva</span></a></p>
