Thanks to France we can finally put to bed the notion that people just need to vote harder.

Dude who's literally never read any sort of leftist news or theory smugging it up, using less-useful terminology than what we have, with a stupider worldview.

Hi dunk crew, before seeing this I didn't realize 'globalist' was specifically seen this way. In terms of referring to the global north extracting resources from and generally exploiting the global south, what's an easy to use and understand term besides settler/colonizer?

Imperialist, extractivist, capitalist, etc.

Although there's not really a 1:1 replacement for "globalist" seeing as the right-wing formulation is a flawed category to begin with.
