  1. Yeah, what the colonists did to India. Burnt down libraries.

  3. Surrendering democracy to identity politics is like surrendering matrimony to prostitution. That’s also one of the things that is “wrong” with democracy. The central conceit is that informed voters vote based on enlightened self interest, and not under the sway of prejudices that indeed exhort self-destructive positions. Here in the US, poor whites vote for the Conservatives because, “the liberals are baby killers”, while the conservatives direct ever larger portions of child welfare monies to gas and guns mega-corporates. Women vote against planned parenthood, the young against public education, and Latinos against sensible immigration. Identity politics is poison in the elementary viscera of the body politic.

  5. Great analysis! Here, in the US, thanks to the idiotic Trump, were no longer called the “US”, but “you ass!” , by the rest of the world. Sadly, after stabbing the Kurds in their back, we deserve it.

  6. Trump mayn’t be the last of his ilk, nor the worst... I think he heralds a Trump 2.0, one who learns from Trumps’ failures and whose followers are better organized and more hardcore. Like Aussie cricketers. The route of MAGA lies in the accelerating change and social dislocation of the undereducated, conservative masses. The threat arises from something fundamentally cataclysmic, and our Brexiting, MAGA brethren are the canaries in the coal mines of time. The changes threaten more than their lives however— the changes threaten the Nation State itself. Hear me out. The Nation State, with its traditional pillars of strength is being weakened from within— (1) with free movement of nation-agnostic Capital across national borders, (2) with really free movement of “elites”— educated folk that can move over 100 miles away for work, and their resultant globalist attitudes (vs. MAGA views or Brexiteer views), (3) social media freeing public opinion and rendering the power-structure unable to construct opinion (leading to Hong Kong uprising, as also in Bolivia, France, Yellow Vests, etc., etc.) (4) financial system moving from currency based, market limited, bank-circulated monies, to include non-traditional, crypto- etc. based currency, merging of market with the World Wide Web, and delocalization of banking (think Apple Pay). ... all this is threatening the traditional “nation state”, the essential European project post reformation. The nation state is threatened from without by MASSIVE global scale challenges... AI, Climate Change, Population Decline, emergence of “G-zero” world order, and Rising risk of nuclear weapon trafficking ... ...problems that’ll force global rules of road, resources, policing, and coordination are here before the nation state was ready. The globalists think, “let’s remain in the Euro”, “give Hong Kong freedom”, liberate Kashmir, and impeach the MAGA MF. But the masses aren’t blessed with a globalist consciousness. They are tied to a zip code. They want to keep those from a hundred miles out of their zip code. They want to protect their kids from the internet, their church from the state, keep their daughters virgin, and their guns loaded. Their bigger worry is Christ not suffusing Christmas and the nig***s gettin uppity. Keep the Turks and Poles outta Great Britain. Keep the models busty and the Queen white. It’s tough when your race, the language, the flag, and your job, all get threatened in one generation. That’s when Trump comes. Fails. Then returns. As Trump 2.0. And the Aussies become world champs. Which is worse.
