There is a temporary conservative backlash to liberalism. That is natural as change is hard, but generations change and progress moves on.

I'd like to see us with something quite different to our current centralised governments. Decentralised democracy and government is our future IMO. 

And before you dismiss it out of hand, at one point democracy and universal suffrage was a pretty far out idea. Change occurs, and technology facilitates change.

The erosion of nationalism and focus on globalisation has made Europe and the planet as peaceful and prosperous as it is now.

Is your post satire? or just a blatant joke?

I'm not sure what planet you're living on but it seems to differ greatly from the one I currently inhabit. 

You say the planet is peaceful and prosperous? Really. Last time I looked there were countless conflicts raging on and the gap between the haves and the have nots is ever increasing. There has never been peace on this planet and there never will be. Humans interacting with one another always leads to some sort of tension, Just look at this message board for starters.

Also I expect more than a temporary backlash when millions economic migrants start trying to illegally enter erstwhile stable countries . Just saying :)

The brand of liberalism we see in 2017 is a toxic as it is hypocritical and only those living in some sort of liberal echo chamber fail to see this.

I prefer the solidity of nation states to the the wishy washy idealism of liberalism, where there are no borders, everyone gets a free unicorn and a gender fluid, non binary hug for passing go. 

globalism can kiss my ass
