Psalms 2:1, Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? .... verse 4, He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision....
2 Chronicles 2:14 If my people, who are called by my name, shall humble themselves & pray ---- Then, I (YHWH) shall hear from heaven and heal their land....
Socialists overreaching? Unheard of.
Because you can’t fool all the people all the time?
I think it might have worked but for their open door immigration policy.
Wrong, Obamass was right about Americans being to lazy. We’re too lazy to give up the greatest country on earth.
Kinda screws up their plans.
Same thing with converting us to muslim, pray five times a day??! FU!
>> those who see the upside of globalism have become a distinct and often embattled tribe.
Of course there are upsides, otherwise why would it ever have become policy?
The issue is that the downsides outweigh the upsides. When proposing open borders and massive “climate change” agreements, when are the costs ever discussed? They are presented as unalloyed positives. In other words, the people have been lied to.
I’ll keep saying it, don’t let them place nationalism as the antidote to globalism. It’s not. Patriotism is.
They went into overdrive with Obama and exposed themselves while giving *some* legitimacy to people considered nuts.
Because globalism only enriches the pinnacle of our society and the Government that assists them. Manhattan and DC are rolling in cash.
They have strip mined American jobs from coal to manufacturing to agriculture, and now even defense contracts. They flood in tens of millions of snarly and often dangerous immigrants.
And they say it benefits us because we get cheap process on crappy products at Walmart and smartphones.
Somewhere along the line people got tired of a constant state of war, of crappy low paying service jobs, of everything we called “America” being uprooted and laughed at, and at Mexicans and moslems and Africans running wild here and demanding we bend to their will.
Trump is our big middle finger.
Look you globalist dupes the countries we trade with are all using nationalism to take jobs from us. Fair trade is not fair.
Big kickback stuff...grants - help from 'friends'... BIG money on the line... The globalist don't give a damn about anything beyond graft. Notice how none of them are feeling the starving children in South America? No kickbacks - no help.
Drivel
“But he sought to deny the inevitability of tension between globalism and nationalism, pointing to the example of a program he recently visited that was building nanosatellites at Morehead State University in eastern Kentucky. Kentucky benefits from the program, but so, he argued, might Kenya, where the satellites could, for instance, detect and help combat the trade in phony medicines.
When opportunities are increased in one part of the world, Mr. Clinton said, there are often positive effects where you might least expect them.”
Gosh, Bill Clinton pointed out how wrong I’ve been. That nanosatellite program must emply tens of thousands!! The jackass.
Engagement in an honest dialogue with the other side does not actually appear to be an option despite the repeated calls for dialogue, that term itself having been twisted to mean "we speak, you listen and agree and oh, by the way, apologize as well". It would mean honesty toward those they have dishonestly derided as "right-wing extremists" at every opportunity. That simply isn't in the cards.
We are now informed that the old drive for world government under an unelected and unaccountable elite has been cast under the new rubric of "Clinton Global Initiative", soon likely to be retitled "0bama Global Initiative" so that its opponents can be dismissed as racists as well as Nazis, and, with Mrs. Clinton hopefully looking for work by then, misogynists also. We can hardly wait.
There are, to be sure, real problems to be faced, but the concentration on only those that tend to accumulate more power for the globalists - the soi-disant "Climate Change" for one - has become a little too obvious. And the denial to face any that threaten that power - the current murderous racist oppression in Zimbabwe and South Africa, for example, are conveniently ignored as irrelevant, which they are if power to the globalists is enhanced by that oppression - that too has become a little too obvious. The people calling for One World seem inordinately fond of playing one part of it against another, do they not?
Many on this forum would call anyone talking about "globalists" or "globalism" a conspiracy kook only a few months before Trump entered the race and opened the subjects of immigration and bad trade deals like no one since Buchanan.
The globalist issues have been there for at least 25 or 30 years and half or more of Americans have been increasingly dissatisfied with the direction of the country. It just took the right sort of big personality and fearlessness to those issues them into the public debate more effectively than anyone ever has.
Once the media monopoly went away, people were able to easily come into contact with large number of people who thought JUST LIKE THEM.
And they discovered that the media is densely populated by people WHO ARE NOT REALLY FROM THE USA.
“The reason is simple——God’s people ARE PRAYING AGAINST YOU. “
None of us could top your answer!
I would not mind seeing every last globalist hanging from a gallows.
However I would like to propose a parallel idea. Remember the "try it, you'll like it" cereal campaign? When it comes to globalism, we tried it, we DON'T like it.
The globalists aren’t besieged yet. I long for the day when they are hiding in the wilderness feeding their children worms.
