What Is Inherently Wrong With Globalism?
    #24345246 - 05/24/17 07:03 AM (6 years, 10 months ago)

I see this term thrown around a lot on here, and is almost always used in a derogatory sense. Why?

Because standards of living are so vastly different and globalism seems to want to correct that? Ok, granted. Us lucky ass rich fuckers in the West dont like the idea of a lowered standard of living.

But its happening regardless. So yeah. Discuss.

Describe globalism?

People have too much sex in my opinion.  First born is always or maybe usually the best kid.  After that parents still care in some cultures and others they don't.

The world is smarter. There are lot's of good programs.

Trump wants to kill all these and everyone else so he can think strait for Once.

Nothing is wrong with it. It's pretty unavoidable, as well.

I think China is more buisness focued on the world.

Russia wants oil

The US wants war and to foster child everyone.

Everyone wants the same stuff.  Too many people.

Russia has oil. They just can't get a decent price for it.

Than neither can anyone.

Read a story about Russia with a base on anartica because of oil down there.

The world always fights for natural sources but oil is a huge addiction.

War takes lot's of oil at this point.

We just can't secure a future or see where the future is heading.  Make a move or do something and consequence is invisible until it's past.

It lowers the value of labor to the lowest common denominator and benefits the economic plutocrats. Protectionism is the way to go!

"always used in a derogatory sense. Why?"

Because it has hurt the majority of people in Western nations, they lost their jobs/wages to globalism. It also created the largest wealth and income inequality in 80 years.

"But its happening regardless"

That's true, but there's a major backlash taking place and policies can change. 

"What is INHERENTLY wrong with globalism?"

Well, trade deals are designed to pay the lowest wages to the poorest people without allowing market forces to change that pattern.  It's called profiting from slave labor.

Globalism has also brought unskilled and skilled labor into Western nations, hurting wages and jobs for those people and creating more income inequality. As a result, the governments of the Western world have been forced to go to the debt markets to make up the difference to support the native populations.

Globalism has benefited some workers in the emerging markets and the elite in both parts of the world, the losers are the people of Western nations and the entire global economy.

Globalism reduces political choice, and pits the world's poor against each other in a race to the bottom.
The intended final product of globalism (united world government) is a bit scary too.
Maybe i just don't have enough imagination, but given the realities of human existence, I can't imagine a single government capable of effectively representing the interests of every kind of group in the world.

Exactly sovereign people and globalism( one world government) are oxymorons


Everyone speaks about the troubles of Rome and Great Britain when they over extended their reach



Oh how short their memory must be it's only thinning them out for us

Enlils true purpose is to get us off topic and to cast enough logical doubts so that outsiders viewing this would be more likely to side with his fake opinions rather than our or sometimes controlled opppsotions opinions.


You see if you are too skilled at not falling for their traps and stating logically sound debunks then other accounts who purposefully agree with 90% of the truth join in and get the entire topic off the main points.

It's their 1960s version of damage control and diversion but man it's painfully obvious in 2017

"but given the realities of human existence, I can't imagine a single government capable of effectively representing the interests of every kind of group in the world."

Well said.  Diversity of life on Earth should be appreciated and saved at all costs.  This includes all of the cultures of the world. 

Globalism seeks to engender a more controllable populace with the highest number of active participants as possible.

The only government I think that would be the best at running the world would be the old style British empire. They ruled with a light hand and allowed lots of local autonomy.

Don't get me wrong, i also think that some methods of governing are inferior.  I just think that they should die out naturally through obsolescence and choice rather than being "put out of business' by globalism

:archiebunker:

I don't know that all parties would agree about the light hand aspect of your analysis.
Although the british were highly effective for some time in their colonial goals, they eventually succumbed to strategic overreach in the face of sustained widespread opposition, just like everyone always does.

They were alot better than the French or the Dutch. I was kidding but it would be pretty damn badass to have a single monarchy run the planet.

that may happen one day if there is ever a common threat great enough to override the world's disparate interests.  I don't think that terrorism or climate change are likely to get us there, but maybe an alien invasion could do the trick, like in an Orson Scott Card novel.

If aliens can travel here we are likely of little interest, perhaps mild concern.
