If 92% of Americans wanted "globalism" this thread/conversation wouldn't exist.

This is closer to imperialism than globalism



More or less. Many will argue that the two concepts have merged. We hear or read terms like "neoliberal globalism" or "liberal imperialism" to describe how modern supranational structures deploy imperial methods (economic coercion, lawmaking outside local consent) under the globalist banner of international rules and integration.

Approval ratings don't equate to approval of a foreign government removing him.

There is a reason Mike Rogers and the Republican senate candidate in Iowa are distancing themselves from the Iran issue.

You didn't post that

Your link

quote:

92% of respondents saying they feel grateful to President Trump for the action.


Also this is why you don't look at random opinion polls as being indicative of anything substantial

quote:

The survey, conducted in the third week of April, shows a sharp drop in support for Trump among Venezuelans. While 92% of respondents in January said they felt grateful to the U.S. president following Maduro’s capture, that figure had fallen to 47% by April — a decline of 45 percentage points in just three months.

So you're stance is that the percentage of people who are happy the US removed him isn't relevant to whether or not the public wanted a foreign nation removing him?

But your low IQ attempt to try and inflated Trump's approval ratings to people wanting a foreign nation forcibly removing him is relevant?

Good one.

Have you finally moved beyond "Muh Globalism?"

Just curious.


PS - For once, an HONEST response would be appreciated.

This is a scenario of me responding to what others say

I'd love it if low IQ NPC slop like "globalism", "lawfare", and "corrupt political establishment" died out as common talking points on this board. It would mean we'd be discussing more in-depth topics again.

1) Yet, you wonder why I sometimes refer to you as Statist Mo Fo.

2) The poster who uses more memes and emoticons than anybody else here really shouldn't be passing judgment on the substantive posting merits of others.

Just sayin'

Statism (not that I am one, being a libertarian) has nothing to do with people using low IQ, NPC phrases

Opinion polls establish public opinion. In a democracy, whether pubic opinion is being followed is a sign of whether or not that population has control over their own destiny.

Control over your own destiny, effectively, = sovereignty.

So public opinion polls in a democracy are a great way to tell whether or not a nation (its people) is sovereign.
