More and more I get frustrated about the increase in nationalism in the entire political spectrum. Tribalism of all kinds sounds silly to me. I see all humans as just that, humans. I don't care where you were born. I don't care if you were born close to me either. I don't care which geographic region rules me. Ideally it should be the entire world. And yet when I tell people this, they think I am insane. Think I don't care about people at all. I don't get this thinking. Why did we all lose the dream of something like Star Trek? The dream of a world government? In which we identify as human instead of American or whatever? Why did seemingly everyone lose track of that?

Generally because it lets capital do its crimes where it won't be punished squeezing the third world for their lives and the first world for their income.

for capitalism, immigration and offshoring of labor is about increasing exploitation which leads to immiseration of many domestic workers projects like the EU and the euro demonstrably lead to less sovereignty and democratic input of workers, since it is primarily driven by the interests of capitalists. see: greece 'nationalism' is a capitalist response to these problems since it appeals to domestic workers who are immiserated or are worried about these issues because these issues are actually immiserating them or causing economic anxiety, but it redirects the anger away from the capitalist system and celebrates the capitalists as the savior

also where nationalism refers to the belief in the superiority of your people over others, the vast majority of western liberals are nationalists and generally see no problem with the west constantly couping, bombing, and genociding nonwestern peoples even if their bleeding heart spews otherwise see: juan guaido, bolivia, ukraine, yemen, libya, syria, etc.

Can it be done with a truly internationalist approach? Or a global approach? Anything that makes people stop seeing each other as different?

Globalism as executed is bad for the reasons stated above., But the idea of an integrated, internationalist system of equal players is great. The principle isn't bad at all, and it's better to have international laws than not, but sadly capital captured internationalism. (or more likely, always had it outside the communist sphere). See also: imperialism. So, shrug. But to the right, it just means Jews and immigration ("bad!") Love Rat has issued a correction as of 23:00 on Jan 21, 2023 |

rightwing workers are economically concerned. the "problems" with their concerns are the bad capitalists, liberal/socialist control, immigrants, and foreigners. liberalism is symmetric. the "problems" with their concerns are the bad capitalists, conservative/rightwing control, and those drat racist rightwing workers. of course it's important to keep in mind, the rightwing barbarity of immigrant concentration camps magically turn into the logistical bureaucratic concern of influx centers on a dime

AceOfFlames, in some respects, rightwing workers are less delusional than some liberals. they recognize the capitalist mode of immigration and offshoring are actually abysmally terrible for a lot of domestic workers. right next to the demagogues pinky-promising to fix this are the liberals on the other side of the overton window championing this very exploitation. it's really easy to see why people would get swept up in rightwing movements. i've met some liberals that refuse to recognize this exploitation of domestic workers and argue it helps them. but on the whole, it's mostly the well-to-do, politicians, and capitalists that push this rhetoric. but this causes this hilarious and comedic tension that you can see in the male hillary vs female trump clip. liberal workers in general hate the offshoring exploitation, so the liberal politician is trying at the same time to be for and against it, looking the fool standing next to the rightwing nationalist.

AceOfFlames posted:Why did we all lose the dream of something like Star Trek? The dream of a world government? Joe Rogan asked Alex Jones what his ideal future would look like and Jones said he hopes we make Star Trek a reality. Joe did not follow up with a question about Earth having one government in Star Trek, let alone the United Federation of Planets, those commies.

i like these pieces on the question of nationality + the left. they don't come to a definitive answer, which is probably the real answer. https://www.peacelandbread.com/post/how-should-socialists-approach-nationality https://www.peacelandbread.com/post/how-should-socialists-approach-nationality-1
