Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Knowing PropagandaU, this feels like "why you should be a racist and stand in favor of protectionism".
Well I guess he was a socialist. /s
I didn't know there was a need for such a thing.
A market is only as efficient as big it is.. The smaller you make the market, the lesser innovation there will be, cos there will be fewer people working on the problems.. This Youtube video describes it best.. Its insane that the so called free market capitalists are advocating for smaller markets..
PragerU did a great video on why the American Civil War was about slavery. Everything else is trash.
I'm a globalist for life
I think this whole shtick is a right wing hot take based on the lose definition of the word.
Hot take as in something that both is novel and triggers the libs.
You can define nationalism to be something sensible, and then mock the libs for being triggered by it.
To me nationalism meant the national standing and power was the main directive of the governing bodies, and the nation not needing justification.As oppose to governing bodies that serve the welfare of the society, and nation is justified on the basis of values.
The most extreme example of this that I can think of is Mao. Someone who did not hesitate at the idea of sacrificing million, to advance Chinese national power. He consider the Chinese people in as far as thy served to strengthen the nation.
With this prism you can explain anti trade stance and zero sum thinking, because it doesn't matter that it helps people in both sides, because your goal is not to help people, but to increase power asymmetry.
But in the end it is just playing with definitions.
"Nationalism has nothing to do with isolationism"
Also
"Nationalism believes the extent of the nation stops at its borders"
It wouldn't be nationalist propaganda if they didn't hate on the Catholics. I find it funny that you can take today's headlines about Muslims destroying America, swap Muslims with Catholics, and have a headline straight out of the 1900s.
Also I lol'd hard at the Hitler wasn't a nationalist
This is conservative intellectualism?
