Does this Crisis echo the Glorious Revolutuon?

I have come to favor the the term Internal Cold War for the USA's present 4T.  One difference between now and the War Between The States-there is no issue quite as inflammatory as slavery was back then.

One issue that is salient is the populist revolt against globalization.  Peter Zeihan (zeihan.com) has pointed out that the rejection of globalization now includes both the Democrats and Republicans; or to put it another way, a broad lack of support of this across the political spectrum, including groups that strongly disagree regarding domestic issues.

I don't think globalization is the real issue.  I think the real issue is loos -- loss of status, free time, abundance or whatever other personal lack people feel in this economy and society.  Globalization is just an easy target, but less true apropos than most people believe.  In fact, I doubt you can find 5% of the population who can describe globalization in accurate terms.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
