What we are seeing is the start of nationalism.

They keep saying we need to be on the “right side of history”.

Now that you mention it, that phrase is terribly nonsensical. What is the "right" side of history? How is it defined?

The old adage that history is written by the winners would seem to argue that whatever side we, the people, take is the "right" side.

Meanwhile, globalisation had already begun to destroy many traditional communities, jobs and ways of life. And when these forgotten men and women looked to their leaders for help, they found only laughter and scorn.

This has NOT been a pretty political season...
