Argentine thinker Agustín Laje surgically exposes the foundations of globalism, which he describes as “the most ambitious political project ever seen.”
When I read CocotteMinute (which is every evening) I am often reminded that our friends in Europe and South America have been subjected to the same brand of woke/DEI totalitarianism that we are here in the States.
But we may be turning the corner and that is point of this article, isn’t it?
Ridicule is your most important weapon. Make woke jokes, make it uncool and socially unacceptable to be woke. The globalists deserve to be the butt of everyone’s humor.
But Russia has its "oligarch" power faction, and while there are other forces within the country that may (its qualified, the military sorts would stand to gain by playing the roles Western ones do) oppose these, those big business interests are super for it, in fact, they and their Chinese counterparts have been hosting conferences in Africa that are just like Western Globalist ones recently, they seem to want to just replace one for another just like it there. Also, China has been economically and politically centralizing in recent year, we'll see where that goes, maybe they'll fail, but if they dont, well, the people behind it, Very Big Biz and Very Big Finance etc., and their propaganda spokespeople (Political Scientists from Fudan University, etc) look just like their Western Counterparts. And Javier Milei is super in bed with big transnational corporations and big international finance, who are ultimately the structural core of the Globalists. And that goes on and on.
There is a solution, return capital controls and inwardly focused economic polices, if done well, we can get a better version of the original post war Bretton Woods which had both capital controls and cooperative protectionism written into its design. But as long as economics is completely removed from domestic public politics (and do mean "public", the local branches of Globalism still break the rules for themselves, of course) and there is no capital flow inhibitors or variability in policy and no protectionism then there will be a semi-cartelized global economy and global economic semi-central planning and if there are those things then there is Globalism and most all people in almost every country as well as civilization as a whole are much worse off

Yes, and their media doesn't report our opposition to woke/DEI totalitarianism, and our media their opposition to woke/DEI totalitarianism.
Maybe the corner we are turning is to bypass the leftist gate-keepers?

Ridicule can be very effective. Saul Alinsky described how leftists should use it in his book Rules for Radicals.
