11. ‘Abuse of power’ is a legal term. They still think they’re gonna take the house, and ‘abuse of power’ will be a charge during their impeachment proceedings. It’s a pipe dream! It has zero chance of happening; however, far leftists aren’t dealing in reality.
My main criticism of that thread would be the absence of big capital, which IMO is the driving force behind the globalist project. Many of the things mentioned might not serve the US public, but they're a huge boondoggle to the moneyed class which funds Washington.

I would argue that the main motive for globalists isn't starry-eyed utopianism about a stateless society, it's a cynical financial calculation that is packaged and sold with lofty rhetoric (which they may or may not actually believe).

While money is of course a motivation, there is a basic ideological underpinning for globalists. They view themselves as the rightful rulers over the rest of us - in all things. That is a strong strain of Marxism - cultural and otherwise.

I don't think it's primarily ideological. I see it mainly as an emergent property of corporate and finance rationally following their best interests. I'd say ideology serves as a rationalisation for certain individual actors.
