Doesn't 1 side support globalism politically though?

"Both sides" have anti-globalists, and both have globalists, and despite an interesting few years globalism is still the establishment norm for most mainline parties in liberal democracies.

"globalism" isn't one thing. Both communism (international workers movement) and libertarianism (free markets) have globalist aspects.

You can believe in geographical borders while also having foreign relations.

Don't you mean 2 sides? Both parties have gone off the globalist cliff.

There are far more than 2 sides.

I certainly hope so, it seems everyone in our leadership nowadays is too busy squabbling rather than focus on actually important issues.
