Festering piles of globalist shit, such as this, don&#x27;t just disappear. Everyone deluding themselves into believing TPP isn&#x27;t going to withstand the &quot;scrutiny&quot;(I think we can all agree I&#x27;m using this term VERY loosely) of partner nation&#x27;s respective legislative bodies needs to take an HONEST look at geopolitical history. They didn&#x27;t negotiate this deal for 5 years, cloaked in secrecy, to let a little thing like feigned democracy stop it. The era of (somewhat)open access to information and free speech that we&#x27;ve enjoyed in North America seems to be drawing to a close.<p>I realise this is a very cynical comment, but I honestly don&#x27;t believe even a sufficiently motivated populace would have any recourse at this point.
