Second, we actually have global convergence. But not convergence 1989 style. We have convergence on a fascisised-neoliberal-monarchism which draws Western post-truth populists and authoritarians around the world closer together. Over time, Trumpism and its successors will become more like Putinism.

Friendship teaches us that humans accept themselves when they are accepted by others who love and see them. Friendship teaches us to be open to being surprised. Friendship teaches us to love without an excess of moralisation. 2/3
