A conservative talking point that takes anti-Capitalist sentiment and twists it into Reactionary crap. (i.e., “The Wealthy Elites do stuff at the expense of everyone else worldwide” turns into “DURRR THE WOKE GLOBALISTS WANT TO ERASE STRAIGHT WHITE PEOPLE REEEE”)
My guess is that it diverts attention away from the Bourgeoisie and instead turns it into Chauvinism (which the Bourgeoisie can more easily handle)
Also the “Globalist” rhetoric reactionaries like to use is loaded with antisemitic dogwhistles iirc
globalists, iluminati, whatever are the current iteration of the international jew.
since ww2 being openly antisemitic isn’t so accepted anymore, so they changed the vocabulary a little, but content wise is the same shit.
Who the fuck are ‘‘globalists’’? This is the exact same talking point idiots here in Serbia have, literally word for word copied and pasted…
globalists = cultural marxists = judeo-bolsheviks = jews
they mean the jews
