    Why do you think “globalists” is a scare word these days? The idea of centralizing any decision making globally would impact profits in the US.

    Of course you don’t want a one-world authoritarian government, but I think the world could benefit greatly from a more organized way of distributing food for one thing.

      Non-rhetorical question: Would people worried about “globalists” care if it was the US that was in charge of the globe?

        Yeah probably, I don’t know though. I’m not one of them.

        I think that being mindful of global fascism rising is important, but I don’t believe that any and all decision-making on a global level is that.

        Also, that if a person is feverishly pro or anti globalism that they haven’t thought too much about it.
