Ah, the technique of distracting from the point by bringing in an irrelevant point that cannot be debunked. Nice try.

As opposed to dismissing the points in the article with merely a wave of "globalist website"?

You may be right but you offer no evidence, only shoot the messenger.

You are the one using the word “globalist” as a pejorative. The opposite is isolationists and FP is a geopolitics magazine. So where is the isolationist’s geopolitics perspective you seem to claim is missing?
The opposite of globalist is not isolationist. If I could coin a word, I would choose “localist”.
The US is too big for that definition to make sense. Unless people are proposing cutting off the border and trade with Florida. On the other hand, having far-right beliefs like “anti-globalism” (whatever that means) is heavily correlated with a short distance between where one lives now and where they were born.
