Munk debate on populism: Bannon vs. Frum

https://www.munkdebates.com/The-Deba...se-of-Populism

"The Autumn 2018 Munk Debate will move the motion: Be it resolved, the future of western politics is populist, not liberal..."

Steve Bannon:

Quote:

"I want to bring everything crashing down and destroy all of today's establishment."

David Frum:

Quote:

"We are living through the most dangerous challenge to the free government of the U.S. that anyone alive has encountered."

How is is possible that the year is 2018 and we have to ponder whether populism is a good or bad thing? Populism is taking its toll on Venezuela, the Philippines, Europe and America. I don't think this is the start of a new political era, I think its a temporary spasm and backlash against globalization and a rapidly changing world and some respond to these changes with a idealization of a past that really wasn't all that great to begin with. Make America Great Again!
