NY Times: Besieged Globalists Ponder What Went Wrong

When I saw this headline, I swear I thought this article was from The Onion:

“Until recently, you didn’t hear people being referred to as “globalist” very often. But in a time of rising nationalism, those who see the upside of globalism have become a distinct — and often embattled — tribe.

Last week, the globalists had a big family reunion in New York. The gathering was focused on the United Nations General Assembly, but a growing array of side conferences and summits and dinners also attracted concerned internationalists of every stripe: humanitarians, leaders of nongovernmental organizations, donors, investors, app peddlers, celebrities.

But an absence haunted the week. Almost by definition, nationalists and localists are underrepresented at these global gatherings. Their paucity was especially notable this time, because the rising signs of nationalism — whether in the form of Donald J. Trump’s winning the Republican nomination, the British vote to leave the European Union, or the German backlash against Angela Merkel’s welcome to refugees — hovered like a specter over many of the discussions. …

Mr. Clinton spoke of the globalist vision of a “nonzero-sum” world in which everyone wins together and of how that idea was under attack by “zero-sum” tribal politics.”

What went wrong with neo-liberal globalism?

I don’t know … could it be the fact that it was oversold and had a negative impact on the White working class? Maybe it was the reaction of the average White guy in Middle England to Rotherham or the average White guy in the Rust Belt to routine terrorist attacks, shuttered factories and a heroin epidemic? What has Germany gained – aside from a fleeting warm fuzzy feeling among self-righteous, pampered elites – from absorbing a million raw Muslims from the battlefields of the Middle East?

  1. The Anglo-American Establishment has been busy these past hundred years scheming out their schemes, enjoying a large measure of success at World Dominance. What went wrong, is that the question? The answer is that for the past thirty years, since the end of the cold war, power has been slipping away, the competition got tough while we got fat and soft. you can add the fact that the West is morally and spiritually bankrupt and there you have it.

  2. All politics in a diverse society is a zero sum game. Even if all groups benefit (a very big if), those groups will not benefit equally relative to the other groups. It does not matter how rich a society is or how comfortable the standard of living enjoyed by its lowest rung, its elites will rule that society and disproportionately benefit from the wealth created by that society.

  3. A Hindu lawyer gets out of his Porsche at the mall in Houston walks into the Nordstroms pulls out a pistol and kills nine white people.

    Where is the romance in Globalism?

  4. What went wrong with neo-liberal globalism?

    What went wrong with neo-liberal globalism? That’s about as insightful as hoping that the sidewalks are wet after it rains. Nothing can go wrong with neo-liberal globalism, because it fundamentally is wrong.

  5. What went wrong? Why don’t you like us? Yes it’s true that your wages go down (assuming you can get a job), yes it’s true your communities are being systematically destroyed, yes it’s true you’re being demonized as the cause of all the world’s problems and attacked by all the “diversity” we are bringing into your country. Yes all these things and more may be true, but look at what you gain! Why ethnic restaurants and uh..uh…well lots of things! Such ingratitude for all we have done to…I mean for you.

    • The global economy has blessed us with crappy, chink-made toothbrushes and Somalis “necklacing” each other in Maine and Minnesota. You ungrateful goyim!

  6. One has only to see a Muslim woman in summer wearing that damned hijab to know they will not assimilate in Western societies. How uncomfortable that must be in 90 degree heat. But they have to wear it because a woman who doesn’t wear it is provoking mens’ lust. Thats how they think, all of them, men and women. Western women are all trash and sluts for not covering their hair. “Purdah” and some hindus have the same mentality.

    Thats the mentality we should take in? They are more tolerant of homosexuals than they are of women, truth be told.

  7. The source of globalism, the NWO and one world government is the Jew’s Babylonian Talmud. What do they do now?? Kill Trump??

  8. Globalism can only end in nihilism, chaos and despair for all save the billionaire/anti-White class behind it.. It might have worked if our race had been an integral part of it. If a policy of, dare I say, White supremacy had prevailed instead of White Genocide.
