In right wing social media activity I often see statements like “the globalists will fail” or

Globalists are evil

These terms are often associated with global-trade, liberal free-trade and open international travel. Also there is a often protested or controversial conference in Switzerland “World Economic Forum”, where rich and powerful people meet in Davos. It seems like the right opposes such internationalist conferences more than the left.

Do leftists oppose globalism?

    Is the European union viewed as an internationalist & globalist project by Marxists or is is it labeled as something else?

      Imperialist. It’s international, but is an alliance of imperialist states that plunder internationally. Internationalism in a progressive manner requires undermining imperialism.
