Private censorship? You bet!

Come back to earth, please.

Good, I support that.

   > People all over the world are angry, and it is not their fault entirely
I've lived long enough to see how all this came to pass. People are angry at the wrong people and the wrong things.

Please put line breaks between what you quote and your comment. Sometimes it's confusing to parse what you wrote vs what they wrote.

I'm curious, how does globalism benefit everyone, at all scales economically, equally?

Each state of the USA is large enough to be its own country. It doesn't work equally well for all states, but there is a high degree of freedom of movement, and free trade between states. If every state were indeed its own country, it seems unlikely there would only have been one war between them since 1861.

It is an interesting train of thought on your behalf. Could you provide some more detail about what you have seen in your time?

And by the way, are you familiar with the writings of Richard Coudenhove Kalergi, Practical Idealism ?

EDIT: care to explain the downvotes?

How are we done? If you are going to provide absolutist statements at least please show us your reasoning.
