Globalism is not an ideology. It’s not actually about “rules-based international order,” borderless utopias, or saving the planet. That’s the fig leaf. (Just look how fast they sprang to defend borders when Trump mentioned annexing Canada and Greenland.)
Trump gets it, and now I do, too. ‘Globalism’ is much simpler than we thought—and even uglier, if that’s possible. It’s all about money. It’s a global grift. Its entire goal is to preserve a rigged trade system, where the United States charges no tariffs, but every other country can slap tariffs, VAT taxes, currency manipulation, and non-tariff barriers on American goods. That’s it. That’s the whole scam. It’s not about international harmony.
It’s about keeping the U.S. market wide open (the “open borders”) while everyone else plants automated toll booths all along their borders. --------------- 全球化不是意識形態。它實際上與“基於規則的國際秩序”、無邊界烏托邦或拯救地球無關。那只是遮羞布。(看看當特朗普提到吞併加拿大和格陵蘭時,他們有多快地站出來保衛邊界。)
特朗普明白了,現在我也明白了。“全球化”比我們想象的要簡單得多——甚至更醜陋,如果可能的話。它全都是為了錢。這是一個全球騙局。它的全部目標是維護一個被操縱的貿易體系,在這個體系中,美國不徵收關稅,但其他所有國家都可以對美國商品徵收關稅、增值稅、貨幣操縱和非關稅壁壘。就是這樣。這就是整個騙局。它與國際和諧無關。
它是關於保持美國市場開放(“開放邊界”),而其他所有人都在邊境沿線設立自動收費站。
