The Delay Of Globalistic Efforts

The era of COVID-19 has seen a massive level of open claims of conspiracies from the political left and right.  One misguided faction might assert that all police officers are secretly racist against non-whites, while another misguided faction asserts that there is a global government run by tyrants that will be manifested any day unless "patriots" fight back against this enemy they cannot even knowingly interact with.  There is no way to prove these things even if they were true, so each side is only assuming things that fit their preferences or goals.  In the case of the latter, the idea that globalist tyranny will soon seize the world, there is actually a great deal of evidence that if such a world government was about to arrive, it would be delayed by a host of factors defining the past two years.

Conservatives assumed (as they could never prove this) that the global turmoil of the pandemic was somehow going to automatically make it easier for a supposed group of influential, rich people the chance to bring about a world government that preys on its citizens and possibly give a platform to the antichrist.  Hell, some of them even mistake a vaccine shot in the upper arm for the mark of the beast that Revelation 13 says goes on the right hand or forehead, and others actively go out of their way to think of random, assumption-based reasons to claim there is some deadly conspiracy afoot to destroy everything they love--which in some cases would actually lead to a more rational and just population anyway.  Whether or not such a conspiracy is truly in operation, the current state of the world does not facilitate globalism by any means.

A pandemic that has been reacted to with absolute stupidity, extreme controversy, and varying local or national approaches from most factions along the political divide is not exactly something that would make global unification, either of a genuine or superficial or deceptive kind, any easier.  Travel restrictions and lockdowns, not to mention general animosity, do not lend themselves well to dissolving distinct nations into a single super-government that presides over the entire planet.  To simplify unification, there would need to be ease of global travel, much less local travel within countries or continents, and a general eagerness to transcend former national borders.  Countries like America and China have done the opposite at varying times during the pandemic.

From officials in some countries like China and Kazakhstan reportedly welding citizens inside their living areas early on to bans on international flights to the political clashes thriving in America, there has been an enormous amount of discouragement for even unity of local communities since the outbreak of COVID-19, so to think that different nations with conflicting, philosophically exclusive ideologies and norms are on the verge of rallying under a global political body is idiotic.  Other than international cooperation among some scientists, there is nothing at all about the events of the last approximately 24 months that would specifically benefit a hypothetical globalist conspiracy.  If anything, momentum towards globalism would be lost as far as practical unification is concerned.
