Flags, Symbols, and Statues Resurgent As Globalism Declines

As the forces of globalism retreat after numerous defeats in the United States, the United Kingdom, Turkey, and other nations, there is a resurgent popularity in national, historical, and cultural symbols. These include flags, statues of forbearers, place names, language, and, in fact, anything that distinguishes one national or sub-national group from others. The negative reactions to cultural and religious threats brought about by the manifestations of globalism – mass movement of refugees, dictates from supranational organizations like the European Union and the United Nations, and the loss of financial independence – should have been expected by the globalists. Caught up in their own self-importance and hubris, the globalists are now debasing the forces of national, religious, and cultural identity as threats to the “world order.” 

Around the world, statues of historical figures are being defaced and removed by contrarian groups who bear ethnic or political grudges. They include Confederate General Robert E. Lee throughout the United States, Captain James Cook in Australia, Father Junipero Serra in California, Christopher Columbus in New York, King Kamehameha in Hawaii, Hugo Chavez in Venezuela, and Marthinus Pretorius and Paul Kruger in South Africa. 

This all represents the trend toward dissolution of the nation-state. 

Nation-state flags, monuments of past political and religious figures, and other nation-state symbols are not only being questioned but, in some cases, ignored or cast aside completely. The world is “going tribal” and there is little the governing globalists and elites can do about it. They brought this situation upon themselves with their aloofness and ignorance. 

The UN General Assembly will soon welcome 193-member state leaders to its plenary session in New York. 

The UN may do well to plan for future sessions at which 300 or more member-state leaders, from Åland to Zanzibar and Baltistan to Mthwakazi, converge on New York.

Peak Empire   

Empires collapse under the financial weight bearing the cost of world domination – control – is impossibly expensive.  The U.S. is at the top of the mountain with no other direction but down leaving behind its peak empire receding slowly from the world stage.  Leaving behind the American empire’s status quo; allowing tribal groups within nations the real possibility of forming new countries.

American world Dollar dominance is drawing to a close as the list grows for countries such as the newest Venezuela, throwing off the reserve currency petro-dollar chains.  However, this will not be the demise of the U.S. nor will it cause hyper Weimar inflation.  What is happening is an acknowledgement of America’s debt – [government, corporate & private] - and spend economy has debased her currency fewer countries wish to hold a depreciating asset.  This is why the barbarous relic – GOLD – reported for years in the alternative media and now is a stable among many main stream media outlets – is being implemented by Russia and China.

Also the Bretton Woods Accords that was signed by the Allies in 1944 American’s would provide the majority of the cost and man power in securing Europe’s defense plus protecting all sea lanes and accepting unlimited imports.  The idea behind this was obvious who ever controls the sea lanes controls the world – unfortunately this had a tragic flaw.  In order for countries to earn dollars they needed to under cut, first based on price then quality, gutting our industrial base.  These countries were simply playing by American rules much to our demise.  With the rise of Trump he has said enough is enough the rules must change.  This would have happened eventually – no matter who was President – as the U.S. simply can no longer afford to play the world domination game.

 Technology 

Alvin Toffler author of the book Future Shock coined the phrase “demassification” known more commonly as decentralization; technology is a disruptive force not only for industry but government itself, empowering the individual.

Instantaneous and ultra low cost communication – internet – has reduced significantly employment migration among 1^st and 2^nd world countries.  Business movement with people has been supplanted – except for top management – by advanced technology.  This increases the tribal effect within regions of various countries.  Catalonia a region within Spain since the 1990’s has been advancing their desire to form their own country.  The U.S. is not immune as our cultural regions become more pronounced due to lessened internal migration.

California from time to time has flirted with the idea of succeeding from the union.  What is more telling is the States movement to invoke article V calling for constitutional amendments - such as the Balanced Budget Amendment - with the sole purpose to “reign in” or decentralize the Federal government further solidifying our cultural nations.                  

Energy

• The Unsung hero of energy – energy efficiency – from LED light bulbs to gas sipping autos – the U.S. has reduced its energy foot print significantly.  Businessmen all look to reduce their costs and one place is in energy usage.  Despite any ups or downs of the economy this trend is here to stay will only improve over time. 
• Fracking…Love it or hate it drillers are becoming more and more efficient in its usage extending the life of existing fields along with known shale deposits.  This has driven natural gas prices down to low prices along with moderating the price of oil.
• The development of thorium molten salt nuclear power.  Amazing as it is this is it is an old technology.  The reason it was displaced by the so called standard reactor was not electrical generation but the by products for nuclear bomb making [world domination].  Thorium is unusable for bomb making and as such is shunned by the major powers.  As energy usage has sky rocketed world wide development of thorium power is being ramped up significantly.  Thorium is very plentiful so much so it is not considered a strategic mineral.  Once developed and standardized a new thorium molten salt reactor will be at the same cost as a coal fired plant.  This will moderate significantly the cost of electricity bringing up point four.
• Coal liquefaction…Conversion of coal into liquid fuels technologies that have been around since WWII with many countries such as South Africa using the process for decades.  What is required is energy – such as abundant nuclear power to make the conversion process profitable.

The cross current of technology, energy independence and world domination overreach U.S. foreign policy is in transition from controlling ALL major and minor sea lanes to those who benefit American imports AND exports.  With energy independence manufacturing will have a rebirth turning America into an export nation.  So…America will become disinterested of other countries (unless they have nuclear weapons) outside of our major trading partners.  A new world disorder will occur as America will shun entanglements – out of cost [world domination] and non-necessity of trade – many regions such as the Mid East will fall to the way side.  America will not become isolationist will simply become far more selective in its use of foreign power whether political or militarily.  These trends will magnify the splitting off of many countries cultural regions.   All of this is within the time table of geopolitics which is to say this trend will increase proportionally year by year over the next two decades.
