One thing that absolutely savages my mind is the fact that those on the nominal left-wing have abandoned this obvious truth and focused on an ideology that benefits some sort of global majority versus their own theoretical constituents.

The perfect example is Bernie Sanders going from "immigration is obviously bad because its a tool capitalist's use to undercut American labor" to generic racial grievance "progressive" guy.

I feel like you’re confusing free movement of goods/capital with free movement of people.

The two can have different policies applied to them. It’s a bit silly to use “globalization” to mean both.

I'm not confusing anything, so your comment ended up being useless noise.
