Nonsense reductionism. France and Germany maintain separate cultures despite having a shared open border. Philadelphia and Pittsburg have different cultures despite being in the same US state.

The difference between Globalism and Nationalism is that Nationalism hides behind arbitrary borders and trade taxation, to protect some temporary resource amongst it's internal, often Democratic majority, refusing to yield it to the efficient Global free market.

All Nationalist states are short-lived because there is no long-term benefit to nationalism. "Strong borders" are a waste of money in a prosperous world. An economic net-negative. If France and Germany ever militarized their borders again, no positive economic or social benefit could come from it.

Implying that Philadelphia and Pittsburg have some significant cultural differences is grasping at straws. Yeah, sure they're different because they're not the same...lol. France and Germany have only recently had free exchange between borders. They're not some paragon to use as an example either.

And, I'm sorry but this literally makes very little sense. It's like you concocted several erroneous and weak statements with bold assumptions to form some forgone abstract point.

All Nationalist states are short-lived because there is no long-term benefit to nationalism. "Strong borders" are a waste of money in a prosperous world.

All long lived states have been Nationalist, when a state ceases to have borders it is then no longer a state. Do you really need this explained? Strong borders does not equal a lack of trade or a lack of prosperity. This flimsy argument of yours does not follow.

And everything you've said is just strange all around. Either you're genuinely out of touch or your purpose is to push a not so well thought out narrative.

Are you from Pennsylvania by chance?

no shit, but how long until it actually becomes that way? and why are you morons defensive about viewpoints that are against it being that way?

the truth? you want it that way because you're a globo homo bugman who has no identity or heritage
