You can always tell when you’re hearing the words of an elite globalist that has likely never been anywhere where the real people live or work.

Clinton and Obama armed North Korea, China, and Iran.
And they tell us that we are on the brink of nuclear annihilation because a Republican is in the White House.

... the threat of irreversible climate change also looms large.No, once the Sun's magnetic activity picks-up again, the earth will again warm and the most recent Little Ice Age will be but a bitter memory.
It may take a generation or two or three, and billions may die, but it will end.

Why do liberals assume there can't be a populism of the people in plural cities?
Because liberals think that plural cities are perpetually divisible by sectional appeals (e.g., BLM), so that all popular movements can be suppressed there.

That’s some major league gobbledy-gook there.
But on the bright side, those oh so Pinko mega-cities will be the primary targets for nuke strikes.

If only we would let the sophisticated people of the Northeast and the West Coast control the country, we would be so much better off. [/sarc]
To combat this guy's mentality, the Founding Fathers created the Electoral College. The United States is meant to be ruled by all of the People, not just by those of certain regions.

This article was published just in time for the “Diversity” celebration in Manchester England.
To: Mafe
Many of the worlds cities are busily re-imagining politics, economics and environmental action from the bottom-up.
And driving out the overtaxed Middle and Upper middle class.

With people from everywhere every faith, language, culture living and working cheek by jowl, the stereotypes of the Other peddled by populism are refuted by everyday experience. At least until the 'Other' sets up no go zones where native women, children or even fire and police departments dare not enter.

I’m sure that the one place you should be is in one of those “elite plural cities” when SHTF .... just you and a couple million of your closest Progressive NWO buddies.

And cities produce nothing really. They can’t survive without people who live in areas outside of the city. Where do they get their food and energy. Mostly everything they need to survive is shipped into city. They’re a huge tax burden on everyone else in the state. Leeches.
