Is this a growing backlash that is bound to get bigger? Especially with O'reilly jumping into the debate. (He doesn't debate actually.....he preaches and much of his audience bows down at his feet)

Is Nationalism coming back....and is it a good thing if it does? Deepak Chopra says the biggest threat to our future is just that..Nationalism. I waver back and forth. If we don't revert back to taking control of our own resources, or own labour force, or own growing corporate elitist.....how can we possibly help the developing countries thrive?

If you want to reach me in the future, please send me a personal message rather than starting a thread. You can do this by clicking on the little envelope icon next to my name. We try not to start threads with the names of other babblers in the title.

I am the "moderator" of this forum, which basically means I can close or move threads. That's about it. If you want to go over my head, or you have a complaint about another poster that I can't handle, you can email audra williams who is the administrator of the board. Her email is audra (at) rabble.ca.

If you want to have a public discussion about babble rules or policies, start a thread in the Rabble Reactions forum.

If you really want me to reopen the other thread, I can do so, but I think the other thread pogge linked is on topic and not too long. Usually we let them run about 100 posts before we start a new one.

I am locking this thread now, but please feel free to send me a message if you want to talk about this further.

EDIT: Actually after having read the other thread a little further, I can see your point. I'll reopen your earlier thread. If you have any concerns in the future, though, please follow the steps above. Thanks.
