That’s such a big question Kimber! I don’t even know where to begin, so I’ll just say a tiny snippet. I think it’s somewhat inevitable and there are some obvious benefits trade wise etc., but at the same time I like the idea of different cultures, different customs, different beliefs etc., and I wouldn’t want globalisation to erode that. :)
This is all true, Michael! I'd honestly like to hear more of your thoughts about it.
I wonder, though, if there's a path or three where humans somehow manage forms of globalization that might strengthen the various ideas that you mentioned to where some aspects may get integrated while other aspects of cultures stay seperated and are kept within their cultural spheres?
Like, say hypothetically, a form of music that was originally part of one cultural becomes integrated globally and stays mostly true to its original form, but a physical thing (like how to make a specific color of paint) from the same culture stays within that culture?
(There's a lot of holes in this idea, but I currently can't think of another example right now, lol)
A very in-depth analysis Kimber.
I remember when I first started thinking about the pros and cons of globalisation and what a deep rabbit hole that was. You covered it well :)
Thank you Michael! It is indeed a rabbit hole full that leads to interesting paths😄
What are your thoughts on globalization?

That is a wonderful idea, Kimber. Integrating the good parts of globalisation while protecting against the bad parts. :)
Exactly! ^_^
