I'm anti pure democracy because I know what happens when everything is majority rule. I'm also against the media and universities in general. College is being used as a government brainwashing center. Why should we listen to the majority if the majority wants stupid policies? If the majority wants globalism too damn bad.
I think this 4T isn't just a cultural war but also the decline of a society and what is the best way forwards. It is interesting to note that the nationalist BRICs are doing better then the globalist West in this paradigm. So if the West does abandon globalism and retreats more into nationalism, it is going to be a cultural shock for the millennials in particular.
Aspie,
You cannot save the West at this point as the globalist policies are too entrenched into the system just like Communism was in the USSR. I can tell you exactly what will happen to the West and it ain't a pretty picture.
Right now , you can see the current elites are flirting with nationalism but they don't want to go the entire distance of restricted borders and actually building a national economy for people to live in. They aren't actually challenging the politically correct status quo. Donald Trump is like Mikhail Gorbachev. A hated man who the entrenched elites refuse to listen to.
What will happen is more crises will appear on the horizon and the elites will eventually lose faith with globalism. They will quickly switch to nationalism, sell off what they can to save themselves and this itself will bring about the collapse of the West. When they simply cannot hold the system together anymore. It's the same story that happened in the USSR. I'd argue in essence that Trump has sort of established his very own glasnost. Same with Boris Johnson.
Trump and Johnson represent the elites and the system, and they do so on steroids.
