All for primetime they do is re-broadcast american shows like the simpsons, family guy, american dad and malcomb in the middle.

It's exact meaning, however, varies depending on who you ask among the following: An ideology which broadly supports free trade, international markets, and freer movement of capital and people. An ideology which supports divesting power from national institutions into international institutions or multinational agreements. Examples include the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, European Union, the Eurozone, the United Nations, as well as agreements such as the Montreal Protocol, the Iran Nuclear Deal, or the Trans-Pacific Partnership. An ideology secretly pushed by George Soros in an attempt to impose global dictatorship, strip citizens of sovereign nations of rights, take your firearms, track you with vaccines, flood a county near you with Islamofascist Mexican cartel refugees, and establish a new world order.
