Excellent read on the downfall of US push for Globalism

“A new global fault line has thereby emerged: that of ideology versus civilization.
This turn of events has had profound repercussions for how the American ruling class perceives the world today. One implication of the American establishment’s liberal-universalist compulsion is that as civilizations around the world abandon ideology, America, her people, and her core interests, are being left behind. As culture and civilization reassert themselves, ruling classes in Washington, London, and Brussels insist on turning Ukraine (and, in time, Taiwan) into ground zeroes for an apocalyptic fight to redeem the world for their ideology.
As for the rest of the world, peoples to whom the dogmas of Protestant-inflected liberal millenarianism are wholly alien, this view appears entirely quixotic and nonsensical. For many of them, the demise of Pax Americana presents a historic opportunity for cultural renewal and national rebirth—something that has eluded them for decades but which requires a pragmatic and circumscribed approach to power politics and real-world strategic calculations, not utopian projects of world domination and missionary wars.”

People realizing the global New World Order wants them dead. Starting to resonate.

Globalization is ending because the US navy isn't going to protect the world anymore. We won't be protecting trade routes and forcing historical archenemies to play nice with each other for the sake of the world economy.
So many countries have no military or naval presence and they couldn't hope to secure what their country needs to survive without another more powerful country securing it for them.
Saudi Arabia
Iran
Southeast Asia
China
Russia
Etc.
Are going to have to police themselves for the first time since WW2. No US military there to do it for them. How can they secure shipping routes, raw materials, and get enough energy to sustain their modern standard of living?

You are exactly right. The US Navy controls all oceans of the world, therefore it controls world trade. Globalism is an elitist dream of the moneychangers.

Why do you think this will stop

What do you mean? It's already been happening.
The reason we've even been policing the seas in the first place was because of the threat of the Soviet Union after WW2. We agreed to protect Europe and allow them to rebuild and access the American markets in exchange for their help against the Soviet Union if it became a hot war. Look up Bretton Woods agreement, where we also removed ourselves from the gold standard.
After time other countries started to join in on the agreement for economic access and this became globalism as we knew it spanning 1980-2015. The most insane economic and societal growth in world history.
Eventually the US has slowly pulled back from world affairs (don't focus on headlines, focus on troop counts).
The US has fewer troops abroad right now than they've ever had since before WW2.
If you don't believe just look around the world, see how other countries are trying to build up their militaries (they'll need a military presence to go out and secure resources they can't get in their own geographies), they're making agreements with neighbors.
Globalism is already done. Even Larry Fink of Blackrock said it and by the standards of this place he'd be the globalist of globalist.
Russia-Ukraine war is ending globalization
China is having a massive demographic implosion and won't have enough workers to maintain the insane growth they experienced over the last half century.
Corporations are slowly reshoring their manufacturing or getting out of China entirely.
Why do you think there's a massive chip factory being built in Ohio by IBM?
Why do you think Samsung is building a massive factory in Taylor, Texas?
It's 100% happening and it's not a debate. It's a matter of how long does it take before other countries can't get along.

It seemed like you were saying it was a conscious decision on our part. I don’t think that’s the case. The hand is being forced because of terrible leadership

All true.

It is though. We are pulling our military out from policing the world. Obama, Trump, and Biden have been doing the same thing. Ignore the surface level differences.

Memo:
Like the rest of the US military & intel communitah, The US Navy has been a military chess piece of NATO since Bubba Klinton was sworn in as fake President in 1993.
Btw -- IF the US Navy was a serious "Global Force For Good" (it's absurd past actual advertising spiel that gave away The Game), ZERO Somali Pirates would have hijacked ANY ships during the last 20 years.

You cannot be serious.
Larry Fink/Blackrock is engaging in the usual inverted truth. Just like the rest of tPTB.
The Globalists (or NWO/Reset Monsters) have already scripted out their Global Utopia.

I concur on that general timeline of escalated Globalism, but what's happening now is tElites just attaining the Final Stage, reshuffling the deck. They have virtually buttoned up their goal of One World Control (except for a few isolated national tantrums and minor rebellions that will fizzle.)

As one form of universalism—liberalism—eliminated its competition for world domination, it paradoxically lifted the mental fog of ideology, permitting the return of particularity—rootedness, locality, community, and civilization. Hence, the conditions unleashed by unipolarity proved salutary for concrete instantiations of life in the world’s most prominent cultures and civilizations, allowing these culture-complexes space to reanimate and revive themselves in their particular spheres.
The archetypes of our past loom over this present darkness, but stand ready to accommodate a bright future in which they are reinvigorated by the agency of living men.

I'm not going to argue with you. Everything I've said is accepted knowledge and has been known for some time now.
What you're saying is more conspiracy than reality.
You give elites way too much credit. Just watch the chaos of the world unfold. Globalism was the exception and not the norm for the history of humanity. We're going back to "normal".

The OP’s article is a good one and I think it could turn out to be prescient. But globalism is absolutely not done yet and there’s going to be a titanic battle to determine its survival. The liberal world order is not going down without a fight. See everything they have done since Brexit and Trump as evidence.

The funny thing about "conspiracies" -- sometime they are obvious and in your face; and yet STILL some can't see it.

A lotta fancy words to say nations prefer sovereignty and the west is on its own.

Wrong. Its over. Look at the data.
Look at demographics. Most of the countries in Asia are going to suffer massive workers shortages and loss of labor.
Our boomers had tons of children to supply the work force, South Korea, Vietnam, Japan, etc. Didn't have any kids and their workforce is going to be too old to maintain.
Not only that you'll have major security concerns trying to conduct trade in hostile territories.
Reality is reality. Unless these countries can magically come up with hundreds of millions of people in their 20s and 30s these countries are fricked. Their economic paradise is coming to an end.
Why do you think Bezos founded Altos Labs?
Why do you think the Saudis have ensured billions in funding for their Hevolution Foundation?
These companies are researching a cure for aging.
There will be a rocky transition in the US over 4-5 years because our corporations are stubborn idiots, but they have no choice.
