"You're talking out of both sides of your mouth right now."
This is true. Is that a problem? Is it necessary to resort to binary thinking, which always means buying a whole package of ideologies at once just because you agree with one aspect of it? I won't do that. I actually think this is a source of a lot of evil.
"That is simply not true. Pointing out the fact that globalism actually does cause the quality of life (in the short term and sometimes long term) of certain demographics to suffer is a true statement."
My issue is that I agree with you on this. So I am not even sure what we are arguing about. I actually thought this got clear even in my post.
But acknowledging the downside of globalization does not automatically lead to the conclusion that the way to fix the problems is to go back where we came from. Or does it for you?
