It wasn't just Nationalism that led to the troubles with Nazi Germany.

No, it was the conditions imposed upon Germany after they lost a war, that led to the national "moral vaccume" that Hitler filled... What happens when we get to that point? Are we there now? W. is up there preaching the "one big happily family speech" Folks dig that shit... |

I don't think a Nazi type organization could happen here, but I doubt the Germans thought it could happen there either.
 I do see globalism as a huge problem, but also one that we can't stop.The black/white thing I don't see a problem with, meaning I don't think we'll ever have that type of battle. Isolated riots maybe, but not some open warfare deal between people simply over race. I could be wrong though. It's happened many times before.

PLEASE can we just hurry up and get on with it... all this waiting and speculating is getting old. For once I want a legitimate reason for all the "tactical" and "mil-spec" purchases. |

Well the US is (generally) full of Nationalism. we've got great national pride. That's what pisses off so many Europeans, they are tending towards Globalism. It's also why so many other countries think of us as arrogant.
But taken to an extreme, yes, Nationalism could lead to tribalism. |

Well, with the Nazi's you've got a whole slew of issues in the rise. You could write a book. Many have.
Anyway, I think all -ism's are like whiskey. Living without it is bad. Bad bad bad. You need some to be a real honest to god human being. But too much is also bad and you'll wake up with strange things. |

This was on 5850 mHz around 0100 UTC, IIRC... ETA: They said the transmitter was in Maine, but to QSL to an address in Indiana... trying to Google different calls to see what I come up with... ETA: Found it... program linky |

Part of the reason the Nazis came to power was the extremely weird political structure that allowed the Nazis to co-opt (yes I know, only liberal professors use that word, bite me) enough of the vote to get their foot in the door. There were 4 or 5 major partys that split the vote in Weimer Germany.
Also, the Nazis used a paramilitary organization (SA) to violently obstruct leftists from the polls. Then they got lucky when Hindenberg asked Hitler to be Chancellor. |

Given that the global economy and the exchange of goods and services across national borders is a fact, those countries that "Try" and protect their home-grown (Efficient or not) industries through prohibitive import fees and tariffs will just get left further and further behind.

But it's always been a global economy, with exception of the years "in between" the wars where the US was isolationist... No, the Globalism today isn't the marketplace, it's the control of national policy across the different nation-states... ETA: And the only goal of that flavor of Globalism is to make it easier tomorrow to assume more control and further erode the concept of "national soverignty" |

Well I'll respectfully disagree NW. Whatever the aims of individual states are as far as exports go the very fact that a given product is available to whatever percentage of the market is able to access it WILL effect those that attempt to gain political advantage "In-House" by restricting said access. The genie is out of the bottle, ain't no-one gonna put her back in at this point. You either get competetive or you die. |
