Not really. Supporting globalism doesn't implicitly lock you in to believing that every single item that a country makes should be produced in several thousand globe-spanning factories.
(Sidenote: globalism is a positive move for the proletariat and means that strikes are several orders of magintude much more effective (See: Marxism at the Millennium by Cliff, chapter four))
- deogeo 7y agoSo when China acts protectionist, this is OK and in tune with free-trade globalism, because globalism "doesn't lock you in to believing every item should be produced internationally." But when they accuse the US of that very same protectionism, this is not hypocritical, because of complex and nuanced reasons. Do I understand that correctly?
- fao_ 7y agoHow is producing a single pen using solely the labour of residents of China 'protectionist'. Can you explain where I have accused the US of being protectionist?
