Donald Trump
Trump is the result and product made by countless stubborn decisions and ignorant politics in the past and present, ignoring Trump and his voters or for what he stands for is going to make it even more worse.
It's a typical cause and effect scenario, the more you steer left the more contra you're going to get from the right. Some call it a bad thing but i call it a necessary ballance. Corporate Globalism and Leftist Internationalism (so the basic anti-trump stance) works well together but it's a ruthless and interestingly enough at the same time a highly anti-social combination and there are just two profiteers in the end, in fact firstly the industry and then the leftist ideology and that all at the cost of the lower and middle-class. The best thing is always the happy medium, it's a good compromise for all and a often built on an solid societal foundation. (ps: Obama & co is in fact not the happy medium btw.) - Best Signature Ever - Last edited by BestUsernameEver#6698 on Apr 22, 2016, 8:04:46 PM

" Globalism as a whole? In short, the wrong part about it is that its been marketed as the best thing ever for all but the profeteers of globalism are "in fact" mostly just the elite and the industry. Let's take the European Union as a reduced scale example which had been always marketed as the best thing ever, but the profeteers here are not the people like you or me but rather the industry and the (political) elite, not to mention its actually also about to fall apart since people are about to realize that its not so great at all. Globalism and its ideology is and always was just the rich mans wet dream since its just all about their own profit and not really about global wealth or freedom. There are and there were already so many micro-examples out there why globalism is not going to work for the normal people. :) - Best Signature Ever -

Well put. The wage class is suffering under globalism and that's exactly why they want a nationalist like Trump.
GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.

@BestUsernameEver: but why is globalism to be blamed rather than the elites themselves? (you haven't really defined globalism, but I'll stick to google's definition, that means, global economy and planification). I mean, the history of humanity is about some shit elite doing bad stuff, so it doesn't really seem that different.
What's the difference between Europe (many states unifying under one government) and US (many states unified under one government in a even big territory)? Also, what globalism and the left have in common? I thought the right was the major proponet of free markets. You know, economic freedom. People like Maduro in Venezuela are pretty much anti globalization (specifically trade with first world countries, that they blame for their ills).

" We were talking about economy and politics. Anyway, I hear a lot of people complaining about multiculturalism in internet but never in home (maybe is a first world problem mostly). Wikipedia says this about multiculturalism: "Multiculturalism describes the existence, acceptance, or promotion of multiple cultural traditions within a single jurisdiction, usually considered in terms of the culture associated with an ethnic group." That seems harmless. Add a Forsaken Masters questline

"Existence and acceptance are harmless. Promotion isn't, assuming government is involved. The promotion of a culture associated with an ethnic group is racism; there is no feasible method for a government to truly promote all such cultures equally, nor should it even be attempting to. Generally speaking, multiculturalism manifests as anti-majority, pro-minority racism. The correct government stance is to ignore issues of race and culture completely - in other words, government shouldn't be racist. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.
