'Globalization is the disease; localization is the cure.' Please keep hammering this! We get annihilated until we embrace LOCAL governance.

Thanks, Robin. I agree this is a strong point to reinforce.

Great post.

I largely agree: "Centralized governments are the disease; localization is the cure".

Lol somehow I thought you might agree with that maxim.

haha yes, I do. I just (annoyingly, I know) had to stress that I am against centralized governments, not "globalization". Because I don't want to let the WEF highjack the word, let alone the concept!

And these WEF types deliberately want to confuse the two things by proposing a global/centralized/unique government hell and calling it "globalization". This project and these people must be treated like cancers, really.

But globalization can also mean global freedom (of ideas, services, goods, etc.): You are free to buy from or sell to whoever you want in the world, talk to whoever you like, etc. Or not. But you decide, not them. Pure free trade agreements are good examples of real globalization. And the EU is the perfect example of a WEF cancer.

The WEF wants to do with globalization exactly what the the democrats do with racism: Create a bunch of racist policies, then call everyone racist if they oppose this nonsense. I say fuck both of them.
