Globalism is an Americanism

Globalism is an Americanism
Source: National interest
Capitalist globalization presents itself, upon closer inspection, as American-centric essentially for two reasons: first, because it universalizes the American subculture of nihilistic consumption and individualistic fragmentation linked to the cool and trendy project of hedonistic liberal-libertinism, the new glamorous and permissive totalitarianism.
Globalism is nothing other than the universalization of the American way of life, so, the material and immaterial Westernization of the planet. Secondly, Globalization is American-centric because it finds its vector of expansion wherever it encounters resistance in the military power of the Stars and Stripes. Read More

Trump is devastating the Middle East with his unpredictable actions

Trump is devastating the Middle East with his unpredictable actions
Source: counterinformation
It no longer makes sense to talk about Donald Trump or US foreign policy. It simply doesn't exist. Effectively, Trump's 'presidency' is as real as 'Palestine'. Both deserve inverted quotes even though the first fantasy would clearly represent white and largely American evangelical Christians seeking to make their country great again at the expense of lesser creatures, while the second – which is not even a state – obviously qualifies as a Trump says ** * a black hole country”; its people aren't exactly white, it is largely Muslim and many seek asylum from the slavery of the longest military occupation of modern times. For Norway, Obviously, read Israel.
So, in the crazy mind of the “booby” ​​who thinks he is running the United States, there isn't much to do, Surely, at peace between a modern and much loved ally and the third world forced to live in the muck further east and south. Jerusalem is therefore the capital of Israel, the Oslo of the Middle East, built on the “distant green hill” – although in the hymn it is supposed to be “without a wall”. What the hell?

Beware of Trump: spacca the globalist elite and mandates in crisis the EU
Source: Marcello Foa
The Trump we saw in Davos is perhaps managing to split the globalist establishment, using the most surprising tool: the fiscal one, which is putting the European Union in crisis, which , after Brexit and Trump's victory, it had been indicated as the shield of the globalist elite. Former Obama advisor, Kupchan, he had been explicit writing That:

United States and Great Britain will be, at least temporarily, fugitives when it comes to defending the international liberal order, Continental Europe will have to defend the position. At a time when the internal cohesion of the European Union is being tested by the same populism that must be defeated, this is not a good time to ask it to fill the void left by the Anglo-American disengagement. But at least for now, European leadership is the best hope for liberal internationalism.

trump davosLet me explain: the scheme promoted by the globalist elite envisaged, until today, the creation of a single bloc in the EU, with the progressive eradication of national identities and structures, with the corresponding transfer of executive and legislative powers to supranational entities, with the consequence of favoring large multinational groups. The CETA Treaty between the EU and Canada, which takes up several salient points of the defunct TTIP treaty, and approved in the silence of public opinion, aims on the one hand to get rid of national legal constraints, conferring to private individuals and not to a Supreme Court, the last resort in the event that a large company feels damaged by national laws or measures, on the other, that is, emptying one of the pillars of our democratic system, on the other, promoting not competition but tax harmonization between EU countries, with a double standard: increasing tax levels for citizens and local companies, loopholes with subsidized regimes (publicly blamed but actually permitted) for large multinational groups.

And Barilla announces its membership of the UN LGBT club
by


In the 2013 Guido Barilla, president of the company of the same name, in a radio broadcast he declared that the positioning of Barilla products was not compatible with possible commercials featuring homosexual people and pseudo-families. He was pilloried. Since then the process of Maoist re-education of the company's LGBT beliefs has seen no setbacks.
A recent note from the company explains that there are many initiatives "implemented by Barilla to combat homophobia and intolerance in the workplace to prevent and raise awareness among people on the issue of diversity and inclusion, which has long been particularly dear to the company. The Barilla Group is committed to promoting and maintaining diversity at all levels of the company. Being a family-run business this is a fundamental part of the company's DNA. This includes ensuring that the item, the perspective and individuality of each employee, partners and customers are respected. As evidence of the concrete commitments Barilla has obtained in 2017, for the fourth consecutive year, the score of 100% nel ‘Corporate Equality Index’, a system of comparison on company activities aimed at lesbian employees, gay, bisexuals and transsexuals developed by the Human Rights Campaign" which is the most influential agency for the diffusion of LGBT thought in the world.

Hurray! The Catholic parliamentarians are back

Only in the last legislature, laws have been passed civil unions, on the living will – which is equivalent to saying euthanasia – on the short divorce. Not to mention any initiative promoted in favor of birthrates and against abortion, which is the real cause of the crisis the country is in.

Italians evicted from hospitals to treat illegal immigrants: here are the shocking data, healthcare on its knees
by

Image results for healthcare koReport F.F.
Healthcare, regions increasingly indebted to pay for treatment for illegal immigrants
Free healthcare for all costs the local health authority and consequently the state and citizens a lot. Here are the mind-boggling numbers
Urgent treatments, such as the emergency room or hospitalization. And more vaccinations, prophylaxis and remediation for infectious diseases. Without forgetting the protection of the health of minors and pregnant women: all free. Italian law says so. And free healthcare even for illegal immigrants. Free for them but for us it's a drain.
The costs for the local health authorities and for the state
The figures are very high. A deep wound in the national health system from which money leaks. There are many millions that local health authorities pay out every year for expenses for illegal immigrants. Costs that weigh: many local health authorities go into debt, I end up in the red and am forced to pay for personal pay and beds. Furthermore, they are forced - suffocated by the weight of expenses - to ask the State for help.
The situation has two crucial points. And they go hand in hand. The state reimburses only part of the costs, fishing for money from the National Health System, clearly fueled by Italian taxes. The reason? Thus we arrive at the second problem. The costs are due to irregular immigrants and “not refugees, landed or asylum seekers, inserted in some way into a reception system, supported, at least in part, from Europe", as underlined by La Verità.

The “porcellum” was better: these elections are the negation of politics
by

ImageReport Linkiesta
We will end up regretting the worst electoral mechanisms. This is why the “rosatellum” (net of complaints about who was nominated and who wasn't) sums up the worst, and turns people away from politics

Ten minutes and we will also miss the Porcellum, with its blocked lists and the Cencelli Manual of the currents that yes, maybe it was a little’ shabby, but it forced the parties to be parties and had only one, main flaw: it prevented voters from punishing or rewarding individuals. Now that the lists are almost completely stripped away, it can easily be verified that Rosatellum has not solved that defect ma, On the contrary, he added the limitations of all major known electoral systems.
You can reward the commendable anti-Camorra personality and, for the game of multiple leaders and options, However, you find yourself chosen as the one who builds consensus with fried fish. You can punish, by not voting for him, the manager who disappointed you and he will be elected anyway, thanks to the parachute that was guaranteed to him elsewhere.
As in the dry proportional, the parties - especially in the South - have had to bow to the major bearers of preferences. As in pure majoritarianism, the establishments escape judgment by taking refuge in armored polling stations.

The new law seems to guarantee only one thing: total control of the leadership over those elected with the possibility of post-election agreements without too much effort, and to hell with everything else

Let's be clear: the complaints of the excluded cannot be entertained here, which are part of the "color" of each pre-electoral phase. Here it only happens that after a five-year period of very authoritative warnings on the need to go to the vote with new rules – rules that would reconcile the country with politics, would restore symmetry to the House and Senate, erase the sarcasm about the "Parliament of Nominees" – the new law exists and seems to guarantee only one thing: total control of the leadership over those elected with the possibility of post-election agreements without too much effort, and to hell with everything else.
«From the bond of mandate to the bond of servitude», the witty people write on social media, commenting on the absolute privilege given to the "loyalty" element in the allocation of safe places, and the exclusion from the lists of any possible suspect of Frondist animus. But this is only the surface breeze, the most visible data, which causes discussion especially in the PD house given that that party – compared to FI and the Five Star Movement – up to now it has prided itself on having protected a certain internal pluralism.
The profound phenomenon is another and it is the progressive homogenization not only of programs but also of "faces" and biographies. Once the bearers of a "line" have been eliminated, of some autonomy and a specific personal reputation, what remains are absolutely interchangeable figures. The beautiful Mediaset journalist who makes her debut as a candidate by specifying "a woman in politics is credible even if she wears a sheath dress" is on Berlusconi's lists, of Renzi or Grillo? And the passionate counselor who displays the "Executioner who gives up" to encourage her students is with Salvini or with Meloni? (Ps: both with the Democratic Party). And again, the "children of art" that dot all the price lists, we are sure that they have skills and visions in line with the parties that nominate them? Or they were caught only for the solid preferential packages guaranteed by their fathers?

Once the bearers of a "line" have been eliminated, of some autonomy and a specific personal reputation, what remains are absolutely interchangeable figures

At the end of the most troubled legislature of the last twenty years, who passed three electoral laws, a constitutional reform, the relay between a re-elected President of the Republic and an elected one, many had predicted, right on the basis of the Rosatellum, a return to the First Republic.
Now we know that this is not the case. If there was a founding fact of that ancient season it was the existence of well-fenced parties, strongly differentiated, hierarchical but not leaderistic, of a right and a left divided by an abyss, where no one – not even a singer, not even an actor, let alone a journalist or a local ras - he could have placed himself here or there.
The political experience that is opening up now is the exact opposite: a Republic without parties and without reference coordinates, where personal ambitions take root around the leaders and form a system of their own’ while “political ideas” – those "ideas" that seemed to be the indispensable basis of every action in the Polis, and they made us argue a lot – they fade into the background, like ghosts.
