At United Nations, Globalist Obama Condemns ‘Crude Populism’ Sweeping the Planet
Breitbart ^ | September 20, 2016 | CHARLIE SPIERING

Posted on 09/20/2016 11:57:03 AM PDT by maggief

In his speech to the United Nations, President Barack Obama defended the increased globalization of the world’s nations, condemning the wave of populist nationalism that was growing in the world in response. Obama says globalization will continue growing rapidly, signaling the unstoppable march of progress. But he warned that nations who allow the wealthy to enjoy the benefits of globalism face challenges from their populace. Those people, he noted, were falling prey to an “alternative” narrative, propagated to fuel opposition.

“Alternative visions of the world have pressed forward, both in the wealthiest countries and in the poorest,” he said. “Religious fundamentalism. The politics of ethnicity or tribe or sect. Aggressive nationalism. A crude populism. Sometimes from the far left but more often from the far right.”

He referred to a “collision of cultures” that was challenging each country and called for world citizens to reject religious fundamentalism and racism.

“That’s a truism. That global integration has led to a clash of cultures. Trade, migration, the internet, all these things can challenge and unsettle our most cherished identities,” he said, alluding to France’s burkini laws and Muslim clashes with France’s offensive cartoons.

He also urged each country to evolve towards progress, describing the conflicts as part of the old world.

“The world is too small. We are too packed together for us to be able to resort to those old ways of thinking,” he said.

This child needs to be spanked or, at the very least, sent to bed without desert. What a poser.

This qualifies as criticising America on foreign soil. Again.

Crude Populism = Defending ones nation from third world invasion and massive taxes to fund it.
Crude Populism = Not being down for white racial genocide
Crude Populism = Not submitting to Islam

Fine... I’m a deplorable crude populist. I can live with that.

How come we never hear about the need to “Whiten” Africa?

When someone told him “Presidents don’t criticize the US on foreign soil”, he took that as a challenge...

“The world is too small.”

It certainly IS with this POS and his ilk in it. Much too small for my tastes.

He should practice what he preaches ;invite dozens of Muslim young men and let him live on his property and share his wealth, he can relearn Arabic and let them have unlimited access to his own family . Setting an example goes much further than a narrative of empty unproven words ..

Well, Obama’s favorite nationalist populists are his bros, the Marxist/fascist Muslims, who are definitely globalists. Their goal is global conquest and world domination.

I think the mass-murdering, Jew-hating Muslims are the original Nazis.
