Are we having the deeper debate? Discussions on social media are many and loud these days, and the polarization between pro-Trump and anti-Trump groups is significant. In the wake of Zelenskyy’s visit to the White House, perspectives are, to put it mildly, divergent.

In the heat of the moment, many are focused on scoring cheap points and sometimes even smearing their opponents. Even Christians frequently use caricatures and stigmatizing stereotypes. Sometimes, ugly nicknames are given to those considered misinformed or even "deceived."

I myself have been more or less excommunicated by the orthodoxy that insists Trump is a "narcissist" and a "dictator"—yes, you heard that right—and I am apparently also a terrible person simply because I question the support for Ukraine’s celebrated "freedom hero."

MEDIA NARRATIVES

Mainstream media narratives are largely responsible for these divisions, as they set narrow premises for the public based on a black-and-white, either-or mindset. This is classic manipulation that splits the population in two. While the fire of outrage is continuously stoked so that the dust never settles, we are prevented from discussing more fundamental matters.

THE ESTABLISHMENT'S ROLE

To me, it seems that the liberal globalist world order—the establishment—is trying to paint the devil on the wall by maintaining the desired images of enemies and heroes that suit their game. After all, they still control mainstream media and can largely influence narratives and public opinion. The exception is where people primarily get their news from X (formerly Twitter) or other alternative and critical media sources.

A WORLD IN RAPID CHANGE

Geopolitically, the world is changing rapidly. The Cold War is practically over, and some well-established institutions now seem to have outlived their usefulness. The EU, the UN, and NATO are governed by bureaucracy, bias, and supranational agendas. In many cases, these programs go against the wishes of the people in Europe and many other parts of the world.

TECHNOCRATIC OVERRULE

Many believe that multinational corporations and special interests control political decisions and that the people are shut out from influencing real politics, both ideologically and practically. Decades of technocratic overrule and outright disregard for people’s livelihoods and moral values have led to the rise of new political movements.

Most notably, a value-conservative wave is sweeping across Europe and the U.S. Trump, Meloni, and Orban are some of the leaders of this paradigm shift. Not surprisingly, the establishment’s ideologues label them as far-right, extremists, racists, Islamophobes, and fascists/Nazis.

MASS IMMIGRATION

Labels are eagerly handed out to discredit people who love their nation, their flag, their faith, their family, and their livelihood. Increasingly, they oppose mass immigration, especially from Muslim countries. The reason? Islam’s view of humanity is perceived as barbaric in contrast to the Judeo-Christian core values upon which Western societies are built.

1,400 years of Islam have often shown that wherever this Arab religion gains dominance, parallel societies are created first, then Sharia law is introduced, and minorities are persecuted, erasing their cultural identity markers. The result is the destruction of civil rights and economic freedom. Western societies have seen what totalitarian ideologies and regimes entail and no longer want to pay the price.

NEW POWER BLOCS

Not only nations like the U.S., Russia, and China form today’s power blocs—India and Nigeria are also gaining increasing influence. The narrative of East versus West is therefore difficult to maintain. Compared to the dramatic shift in power dynamics, such a concept is outdated and inadequate. This creates increasing headaches for the old world order.

SOROS AND THE NEW WORLD ORDER

Globalists like George Soros believe that Russia must be weakened because this superpower stands in the way of the new socialist world order (New World Order) that they want—where a small elite has total control over resources, the economy, and population growth.

Conservative and nationalist Russia prevents this vision from being realized. The U.S., with a strong conservative leader like Trump and his movement, MAGA, is also a thorn in the side of the globalists’ NWO and their Agenda 2030. This dystopian agenda is largely based on the earlier plan, Agenda 21, which was authored by, among others, Gro Harlem Brundtland.

DELIBERATE DESTABILIZATION

There is much to suggest that the war in the East was intended to result in a large-scale war, where the West, led by NATO and the U.S., would break Russia’s power. The goal of a totalitarian world state would then be easier to achieve. However, we now see that the plan has been seriously weakened, especially because both Trump and Putin want peace.

An incredible and unlikely alliance is now taking shape, as these previously incompatible superpowers strengthen their diplomatic cooperation and try to lay the framework for a peace solution. The two old superpowers seem to prefer diplomacy and peace over a catastrophic World War III. The reasons for Trump and Putin’s stance are pragmatic: They both put their nations first and want flourishing economies.

THE GREEDY WAR MACHINE

The EU and Europe’s left-wing elite, who were previously critical of Trump’s demands that they contribute more to NATO, now suddenly want to pour billions into Ukraine and Zelenskyy to keep the war going. For them, it is apparently better than allowing Trump to broker peace, even though they risk a dangerous escalation and a global Armageddon. The UK has also given Zelenskyy financial guarantees, as well as a promise of boots on the ground.

NORWAY OPENS ITS WALLET

Even energy-rich Norway is suddenly ready to open its Oil Fund for Ukraine and the heroic Zelenskyy. Norway’s political aristocracy does not care about pensioners who cannot afford their electricity bills or schools that are being shut down in a mismanaged homeland. Like their ideological counterparts in Europe, they continue to ignore their voters and their national and economic welfare.

They are already used to that. In their hubris, they fail to see that they are contributing to political contempt and sawing off the branch they are sitting on. They will hardly be able to forcibly draft European soldiers to fight on foreign soil.

AFTERWORD

My hope and prayer are that the new conservative world order, led by the upcoming U.S. administration, manages to achieve a lasting peace solution, despite the recent setback. And no, I am not a Putin lover or a Zelenskyy hater. Trump is also not my hero, savior, or idol. I am a so-called concerned citizen and truth-seeker. Time will tell whether I was just naïve or if my gut feeling was right.


A Philosophical Overview: The Shifting Paradigm of Power, Truth, and Sovereignty

At its core, this article presents a fundamental clash of worldviews—a struggle between globalist ideologies and nationalist movements, between technocratic control and popular sovereignty, and between manufactured narratives and genuine self-determination. The ongoing geopolitical tensions and media wars reflect deeper philosophical questions about governance, freedom, and the nature of truth in the modern age.

The Nature of Power: Centralization vs. Decentralization

One of the key themes is the centralization of power by an elite group versus the resistance of sovereign nations and individuals who seek to reclaim control over their destinies. This is an age-old debate: should power be concentrated in the hands of a few (as seen in globalist structures like the EU, UN, and NATO), or should it be decentralized, with independent nations and individuals shaping their own futures?

From a libertarian or classical liberal perspective, the current push for a globalized, technocratic world order is seen as an existential threat to human freedom. It mirrors Orwellian fears of a homogenized, controlled society where economic, political, and even moral decisions are dictated from above, leaving little room for authentic cultural and national identities.

On the other hand, proponents of globalism argue that supranational governance is necessary in an interconnected world facing shared crises—climate change, pandemics, and international conflicts. Yet, as history has shown, centralized power often leads to corruption, inefficiency, and detachment from the will of the people.

The Role of Media and the Struggle for Truth

The discussion also touches on epistemology, or the nature of truth—who controls it, how it is shaped, and how it is perceived by the masses. Mainstream media, once considered the gatekeeper of truth, is increasingly viewed as an instrument of ideological control, crafting narratives that serve the interests of an elite establishment.

In this context, alternative media and decentralized information sources (like X/Twitter and independent journalism) represent a new phase in the struggle for truth. This aligns with postmodern critiques of power structures—who determines what is "true" and why? The growing mistrust in official narratives suggests that many believe truth is being manipulated for political ends rather than pursued objectively.

Nationalism, Identity, and the Rejection of Cultural Homogenization

Another key theme is the preservation of national and cultural identity in the face of mass immigration and globalist policies. The concern over Islamic influence in Western societies is framed not merely as an economic or social issue, but as a philosophical battle over values—Western societies built on Judeo-Christian ethics, democracy, and individual rights versus Islamic doctrines that may not always align with these principles.

From a philosophical standpoint, this raises questions of cultural relativism: should all cultural systems be treated as equal, or are some more compatible with the ideals of freedom, self-governance, and individual rights? The globalist perspective often argues for multiculturalism as an ideal, while the nationalist-conservative view warns of the erosion of foundational values that hold Western societies together.

War, Peace, and the Realpolitik of Global Power Struggles

The discussion also touches on realpolitik—the practical and strategic maneuvers of nations in a multipolar world. The Western interventionist approach, which has long dominated international relations, is being challenged by emerging powers like Russia, China, India, and others. The article suggests that the old Cold War framework of East vs. West is outdated, and new alliances are being forged that challenge the traditional power structures.

The opposition to Trump and Putin, therefore, is not merely political but existential for the globalist agenda. Both leaders, in their own ways, advocate for national self-interest over globalist integration. Whether one sees this as a return to sovereignty and realism or a dangerous resurgence of nationalism depends on one's philosophical viewpoint.

Conclusion: The Future of Civilization and the Human Condition

The broader philosophical implication is a struggle for the future of civilization:

  • Will humanity move toward a centralized, controlled world order where nation-states dissolve in favor of global governance?
  • Or will there be a revival of national self-determination, where cultural and political autonomy are preserved?

The current ideological conflict is not just about Trump, Putin, Zelenskyy, or NATO. It is about whether power remains with sovereign nations and individuals or is ceded to a global elite. It is about whether truth is independently discovered or dictated by those in control.

From a historical and philosophical perspective, centralized systems of power have often failed due to their inherent detachment from the people they claim to serve. The rise of populist movements suggests that people yearn for autonomy, identity, and genuine representation—values that are increasingly threatened by globalist agendas.

This moment in history is a test: Will the world submit to a centralized technocratic order, or will a new paradigm emerge that reclaims the principles of freedom, national sovereignty, and self-determination?
