Pope Francis Rebukes JD Vance, Exposing MAGA’s Hypocrisy
J.D. Vance wrongly asserts that the “far left,” or cosmopolitan liberals, prioritize foreign concerns over national interests. Cosmopolitanism, however, emphasizes a balanced approach, recognizing strong obligations to both those closest to us and to global citizens, unlike the MAGA approach which disregards this crucial balance entirely. This tradition, as detailed by Martha Nussbaum, fosters patriotism while simultaneously acknowledging broader humanitarian obligations. Vance’s criticism thus misrepresents the cosmopolitan perspective’s nuanced approach to global and national responsibilities.
