We should ease tensions and bring back globalism, capitalism efficiency, and drop those lame nationalistic and protectionist policies.

We have nothing to gain, anywhere on the planet, from more and more closure.

It's so sad that we're still stuck globally with so many dictatures and non-representative quasi democracies like presidential and semi presidential republics, all waiting for the right strong man to push it.

America's founders fucked up with their presidential approach of making a single, hard to remove person, hold executive power.

Say what you want, but it hasn't been since Sri Lanka 50 years ago that a parliamentary republic turned authoritarian. Every single others have been presidential and semi presidential ones.

Electing kings seems worse than having ereditary ones, they can even claim popular mandate...

I’m 100% for globalism, but you cannot outsource your sovereignty. The US has proven time and time again that it is fine with using its embedding into nations as a bargaining chip, and has proven highly unreliable.
