I suppose the status quo is an inevitable consequence of technology expanding the practical spheres of influence of world powers. It sure would be nice though to have a world without globalization, still full of cultural diversity.
- nradov 2y agoBut only the good and inoffensive parts of cultural diversity, right? Not the parts that involve misogyny or patriarchy or homophobia or beheading apostates? When people advocate against globalization and for cultural diversity they're usually only in favor of the most shallow aspects: food, clothes, entertainment, architecture, etc. Not the stuff that actually matters for safety and quality of life in other countries. And to be clear I'm not advocating for forcibly imposing our cultural values on those other countries. But let's not have an overly romanticized view of cultural diversity.
