You'll have to define exactly what you mean by globalism Dana. The only globalism I know about is the crazy, unhinged crap Alex Jones rants about. Tell me, in your own words, what you think globalism is. You can't stop the world making advances in communications and travel technology, and so you can't stop the world from feeling smaller and more connected. Side: Yes.

Globalism, is a one world, government. OK, fair enough. That too is inevitable. Perhaps not until the distant future, but if/when we become a spacefaring species and begin to colonise other worlds it will be completely impractical and stupid for Earth to be bogged down in political squabbling and internal power games involving dozens of different leaders. You can't stop something which is inevitably part of our own evolution and you can't necessarily determine it is bad before it has even happened. A one world government can only be as good or as bad as its own members, so in that respect it will be just like every other government which has ever existed. I think your question suggests a paranoia about something you don't truly understand and are being persuaded to believe certain things about. Side: Yes.

Are you not concerned that power concentrated in the hands of one or a few, would lead to a dictatorship? I'm not concerned because that situation is no different to how reality has always been, everywhere in the world, if you pick out any country on the planet and use it as an example. Let's use America as an example. Power is concentrated in the hands of the few. Let's use Great Britain as an example. Power is concentrated in the hands of the few. And we can go on and on ad infinitum. Capitalism is a system which concentrates power into the hands of the few. If you don't like living in this situation, then your enemy are capitalists, not globalists. When you have a big problem with power being concentrated into the hands of the few what you are is a socialist Dana. Side: Yes.
This is an assumption that reality as it is is not something to be concerned about, because it is what it currently is. It is judging the situation by its own situation, which is a circular argument. The concentration of power to the few is inherited by humanity, not by the systems. Blaming the systems instead of the creators is pretty simple. Socialism, Capitalism, Globalism, they are all giving room for powerhouses and financial or social dictatorships. So only blaming capitalism for concentrating power is wrong, or at least blaming the symptoms for being the cause. Side: No.

No it isn't. That's a total misrepresentation of what I just wrote. Either your problem is that you are dishonest or it is that you didn't understand what you just read. When the human race eventually evolves into a spacefaring civilisation and has multiple planetary assets -- assuming it gets that far and trolls like you don't have your own way and destroy it first -- it will not be practically possible, as a matter of mere logistics, to sustain the current system of nation states. The civilisation will not be able to govern itself effectively if each individual planet cannot even agree with itself about the best course of action to take. Stop purposefully misinterpreting the things you read you silly troll and go ask your parents for some more pocket money. Side: Yes.

You don't know what capitalism, is. In a truly free market, everyone who is able is free to exchange labor for currency, and currency, for goods and services. The system you are refering to, is crony capitalism. I do agree with some of your points, though. I think you are quite, inelligent. Side: Yes.

You don't know what capitalism, is. Ahahahaha! Let me just make sure I understand you correctly here. You are insulting my intelligence? Lmao. Dana, that's priceless. Good one! 😆 In a truly free market Why don't you begin by explaining to us why you think a system literally rooted in the idea of power through private capital would ever produce a "free" market?? Are things usually free in capitalist systems? I think the problem we have here is the one we usually have Dana, in that you are literally so stupid you cannot separate fact from fiction. Everyone who is able is free to exchange labor for currency Hang on, you have that predictably backwards. Everybody who is able has no fucking choice but to exchange labor for capital because if they do not do that they will starve. The only two solutions to this problem are socialism or a rich parent. The system you are refering to, is crony capitalism. The system I am referring to is capitalism you pointlessly stupid bitch. You don't get to tell me what I was referring to. You have been indoctrinated with the false idea that capitalism is going wrong when it concentrates power into the hands of the few, but it is going right when it concentrates power into the hands of the few because that is the entire bloody point of the ideology in the first place!!!!! It is supposed to reward those who accumulate capital by bestowing them with more power than those who do not have capital. That is why it is fucking well called: CAPITALISM. Oh Dana, they really have done a complete number on you girl. Right down to the way you've been convinced that parroting their right wing propaganda is a sign that you are intelligent. 😆 Side: Yes.

I am not insulting your intelligence, you just want to be pissed off. Capitalism favors no one, and [rovides everyone the chance to earn money, and exchange it, for goods, and services. When favoritism is involved, it is not true capitalism. And yes, lazy people, should starve. If you are able to work but won't, you don't have the right, to someone else's wallet. If you can't work due to disability, that is a different story, so is age. Side: Yes.

Capitalism favors no one And to actually think you began by claiming I don't understand capitalism! 😆 Quite obviously to anybody with even half a functional brain cell, capitalism favours those who own capital!! Dana, you are very probably the single most stupid person the world has ever produced. You haven't got a clue what you are talking about 100 percent of the time, every question you don't know the answer to you simply ignore, every gaping hole in your argument you simply ignore, and when you respond you simply repeat verbatim the exact same nonsense I have already wasted time meticulously refuting. If you don't want to debate then go somewhere else because it bores the shit out of me the way you don't acknowledge anything anybody ever says back to you. Side: Yes.

Fair enough. I can agree that capitalism favors those who own capital, however, it otherwise, does not favor, anyone. Dana, this is a self-contradictory statement mate. If capitalism favours one group over another, it cannot then simultaneously not favour anybody. Do you understand hun? Both of those things can't be true at once. Capitalism is a dictatorship of the rich. Rich people own the media and the platforms which publish media. You are therefore getting all of your information about the world and its daily events from people with a vested interest in the continuation of capitalism. Capitalism benefits them, not you, not me, and not 95 percent of everybody else. Side: Yes.

Darling I never said that I don't want to debate. That would be a strawman fallacy And if you said you didn't want to be a bricklayer while you were in the process of laying bricks, would that be a strawman fallacy too??? You don't have to say that you don't want to debate. You evidence it every time you ignore the problems other people identify in your arguments, and continue repeating those same arguments as if they hadn't already been addressed and refuted. You evidence it every time somebody takes the time to explain clearly why you are wrong, and you write back: "Yes it is and I will never change my mind". As per usual, you are the one using fallacies. In this instance you are using an implied false dichotomy, by suggesting that unless you expressly and openly state that you do not want to debate, you cannot therefore not want to debate. That would obviously be false. Side: Yes.

I am debating You weren't debating. You ignored the questions I asked and the points I made. All except the last one where you tried to admit capitalism favors the rich while still maintaining your original claim that capitalism doesn't favour anybody. Writing sentences which contradict themselves has nothing to do with debate. Ignoring criticism of your argument is not debate either. I am still waiting for you to explain why you believe the market is free in a society in which the market survives by exploiting people for capital. Perhaps shut up falsely accusing me of strawman fallacies and start there, with the question I asked you a day ago. Side: Yes.

I will answer your question when you tell me why you socialists believe you have the right to everyone's, wallet. I support welfare for those unable to work, or those who have a legitimate need, but you selfish socialists and communists don't have the right, to everyone's wallet. THAT is capitalism. Side: Yes.

I will answer your question when you tell me why you socialists believe you have the right to everyone's, wallet. No chance you fat ignorant bitch. How dare you try to avoid supporting your own statements against precise criticism by deflecting to yet more lies. You fat dishonest pig, Dana. Your "question" is loaded with the false premise that socialists want to take everybody else's money. I don't have to disprove your false assertions, yet alone when you are using them to desperately change the subject from earlier false assertions you have made, which I have meticulously refuted. Telling lies and then deflecting to different lies when you are called out on your first lies is no form of debate you mad, thoroughly dishonest bitch. Side: Yes.

This free market you've been persuaded to incessantly heap praise upon as though it were some kind of beacon of light and hope in the darkness of captivity, does not exist. It isn't real. The reality is that you need a large chunk of capital to enter the market, and if you want to compete with all the other sharks in the tank you need a supply of capital which is even larger than that. Have you ever heard the saying, you have to have money to make money? Capitalism discriminates against people who have no capital, and because they are discriminated against they cannot acquire capital. Conversely, the opposite is also true. Capitalism rewards and favours those of us fortunate to own capital, and because it favours those people, they then find it easier to acquire more capital. That is the reality once someone tears off the big pink ribbon they've been putting on it for the last 200 years. Side: Yes.

I only heap praises on Yeshua, but I do mention capitalism, because socialists and communists, are braindead zombies Oh, OK. Lol. So you heap praises on a socialist, but socialists and Communists are braindead zombies. Gotcha. Ahahahaha! 😆 And you Dana, are one impossibly stupid bitch. What do you suppose Love Thy Neighbor means? Do you think it means selling them stuff for more than you bought it for so you can exploit them for profit? Ahahaha! You stupid fucking bitch. Jesus Was A Socialist https://www.huffpost.com/entry/ Jesus The Socialist: Why Christian Conservatives are Massive Frauds https://www.angelfire.com/ Socialism is Practical Christianity https://www.nyu. Socialism is sharing. It's caring. It's compassion. It's just people helping people. https://www.biola.edu/blogs/ Side: Yes.

That's Miss Bitch to you, and Yeshua is not bound by political ideology, or Party It is pretty fucking clear which political ideology Yeshua is bound by you cognitively dissonant madwoman. He fed people for free, washed their feet for free, and healed them for free. In capitalism that's called bankruptcy. Side: Yes.

Yeshua is God and Lord Almighty and therefore not bound by ideologies created by His creation He is bound by the implications of his own behaviour you fucking retard. How many times has God sold you a kitchen or a car? Do you put a quarter in your piggy bank to pay him every time you make a prayer? Stupid bitch. 😆 Side: Yes.

Yeshua is the Beacon of Light, capitalism is equal opportunity to earn, capital. 😆 You literally agreed yesterday that there is not equal opportunity because those who own capital are favoured, therefore it is easier for them to earn capital. I am genuinely curious about you Dana. How do you manage to live life holding simultaneous beliefs which directly contradict one another? Side: Yes.

capitalism is equal opportunity to earn, capital So equal opportunity to be shunned from the kingdom of heaven? Since, "It is easier to pass a camel through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven". Yeshua was a socialist so stop mutilating his ideas. Side: Yes.

I'm not concerned because that situation is no different to how reality has always been AKA "I've always lived under Capitalism, am not concerned about it, but will gripe about Capitalism anyway as I try to put a system in place that may be worse because I lack basic common sense and have feelings and emotions I need to emote." Side: Yes.

I've always lived under Capitalism, am not concerned about it Oh, you're not concerned about it? That's nice, Bronto. Only could you then maybe explain why you've written four posts in four minutes on four different accounts, all saturated with lies and/or distortions, and all in defence of capitalism? You're just a crook pal. That's literally what you are. And thankfully the American people saw through it this time. Side: Yes.

Lead to a dictatorship?? That happens all the time WITHOUT "globalism"! But then, a LOT of people seem to like that idea even in America. 70 million voted for it in the last election! Luckily, almost 80 million voted against it! Those countries that have it don't like it! Two things cause most wars, religions, and border disputes. Getting rid of both would leave us little to fight about. It couldn't be "the hands of a few", it would HAVE to be in the hands of many, and, as the masses spend more time mixing races without religions or borders to restrict them, they will see more "eye to eye". Good idea?? Side: Yes.

Is globalism, a good, idea? Hello y: I dunno if it's a good idea or not. It's just what we're gonna do. As a species, we started off wandering around. Then we joined into little groups.. I dunno if anybody thought it was a good idea or not, but as civilization progressed, that's what we did. We organized into tribes, then villages, then states, then countries, and finally superpowers. Nobody gave that any thought... The next step is obvious. And, it too doesn't matter what anybody thinks.. It's just what we're gonna do. My friend Al said, borders cause most of the worlds strife. He's right, of course. So, should we kill half of humanity to defend them, or get rid of them altogether?? Certainly, no one country is gonna give up their borders first.. But, imagine, if the whole world did it at once.... excon Side: Yes.
