Our education system has given us a politically illiterate majority in our population. Marxism is now the objective and that feeds right into China’s hands.
What is communism? What is fascism? What is globalism?
You can crack a textbook and read out some textbook definition of each. Personally, I “know” what they are. But no one in the real world lives by textbook definitions. It’s all fuzzy all the time.
I think it really comes down to a binary world: Control vs Freedom.
The CCP isn’t about “communism”. It’s about Control. Their “ideology”? It’s “whatever works”. Could possibly be some sort of centrally planned economic effort at home. Possibly. Could be bribes to foreign politicians. Could be military threats here and there. It’s “whatever works” so that they can have more Control.
And it’s the same thing in America. Build Back Better? Vaccines and masks? Loose immigration enforcement? Election fraud? That’s the current “ideology” of the American government. Because “it works”. They want Control and they know how to get it.
I support anything which helps the cause of Freedom. And that doesn’t mean US troops invading Iraq or Afghanistan or wherever to support “freedom” around the globe. Ive seen that movie. It doesn’t work.
I don’t know what “populism” is. Yes, yes, yes. I can crack a textbook and read a definition of “populism”. In the real world does that mean anything? I’ll support a “populist” is he wants to limit the Control that others have over me and if he wants to increase my personal Freedom. That’s literally the only thing I care about now.

I think the “populism” label is misapplied at this time.
Earlier populist movementsl were leftist in origin. Not Communist, but leftist.
Global Totalitarianism is the worst possible form of government. And an entire world under that boot would be hell on earth.
Satan himself would rule it.
