You believe in fostering a global community where all human beings are equal and interconnected, promoting peace, understanding, and cooperation across cultural and national boundaries.
Cosmopolitanism is a political ideology that advocates for all human beings belonging to a single community based on shared morality. This ideology is often associated with the concepts of global citizenship and the belief that all individuals have duties and responsibilities towards each other, regardless of their nationality, ethnicity, or geographical location. Cosmopolitanism promotes the idea that political, cultural, and economic boundaries should not hinder the mutual respect and understanding between different cultures and societies.
The roots of cosmopolitanism can be traced…

How would the world change if every person truly believed that all humans are equal, regardless of nationality?
@9HH8FQT2yrs2Y
Society would be much more open, there would be less violence related to hate crimes and race. There would be little to no pay inequality in industry since everyone would be viewed as equal.
@9HH8N7SRepublican2yrs2Y
it would be more peaceful and quieter people wouldn't complain as much, both racists and unracists
@9HH98KG2yrs2Y
We could have more meaningful discussions of ontology without an underlying bias against the person supporting a particular view.
@9HH8KLQ2yrs2Y
Open borders, more general respect from all people.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Do you think global cooperation is realistic, or are cultural and national identities too strong?
@9H7VHCW2yrs2Y
i feel that national and cultural differences might be too strong and in the way for everybody to get along.
@9H7V634Independent2yrs2Y
I think in some cases global cooperation is possible but that does not mean it should be implemented every time
@9H7VRH9Women’s Equality2yrs2Y
World peace isn't possible. Cultures, religion, and national traditions are too different, infiltrated with people that have opinions that cannot be affected by other people. Along with war, territory, laws, rights, global cooperation is unrealistic and impossible.
@9H7VFJ4Women’s Equality2yrs2Y
I personally think that cosmopolitanism isn't realistic.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
If you could swap places with a teenager in another country for a week, what do you hope to learn?
@9JCWNQVRepublican1yr1Y
I would hope to better understand how USA is viewed.
@9JD53981yr1Y
This isn't an argument, its a statement of opinion, mine differs in the sense that I'd want to know how that teen experiences their own country, and its people.
@9JCWMMQ1yr1Y
I would hope to learn the concept of cosmopolitanism in their country and compare it to America's concept. What should we continue to do, what should we cease to do, and what should we prepare to do?
@9JCWR971yr1Y
Their concepts and ideas on anything and everything would be what I would try to learn to hopefully established relations to their country to be more prosperous.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Would you be willing to sacrifice some of your national privileges for the greater good of a global society?
@9H4SV5NLibertarian2yrs2Y
I am not willing to lose some of my national privileges for the greater good of a global society because America always claims what they do is for the greater of global society but most of the time it hurts other people and is propaganda and America does whatever benefits them.
@9H4S2WH2yrs2Y
No I would not be willing. I don't think it's a bad idea for all nations to stay separate, with different ideals, beliefs, religions, languages, and cultures that exist. The main issue is that people simply can't just be nice to each-other for whatever reason.
@9H4SXZC2yrs2Y
No since I believe everyone should remain their national privileges.
@9H4SWCZ2yrs2Y
I think America should remain outside of foreign conflict and work on governing itself before worrying about other countries
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Have you ever made a friend from a different country online, and how did that friendship change your perspective?
@9HW8L3V1yr1Y
I love meeting people from different countries and hearing life stories that change my perspective of life ( i am highly privilaged in the United States)
@9HW8CPJ1yr1Y
I have not made friends in other countries online.
@9HW8QWGIndependent1yr1Y
My dad is from a different country and him speaking about how much more spacious as well as less costly America is has helped me understand why many people move to America.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
If you could create an exchange program for students worldwide, what would be its main goal to foster cosmopolitanism?
@9HH6Z7Y2yrs2Y
Make them feel like they are home and help them learn new tings and experience things they haven't before.
to encourage multiple regions like south africa, and switzerland to be able to come together and share different cultural and governmental ideas.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What might be the risks and rewards of identifying first and foremost as a global citizen?
@9KDL7KN 1yr1Y
That would require co-operation of the globe which does not seem possible. That is why there is individual nations for people of shared interests.
@9KDKZLGRepublican1yr1Y
The fact they can use it as an excuse to escape any wrongdoing and instead continue shady practices.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Do you believe a sense of global responsibility could diminish local community bonds, or might it strengthen them?
@9H5LW5DProgressive 2yrs2Y
yes it can help planet and get together people who can teach other people how reduce plastic
@9H5MBL42yrs2Y
I think increasing global responsibility creates a greater sense of community and builds on local bonds
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Imagine you're drafting universal laws for humanity; what's the first law you'd propose and why?
@9HGRH3P2yrs2Y
We provide free or very cheap healthcare, because everyone deserves to be taken care of.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What's the most significant lesson you've learned from an experience with another culture?
@9KDKKCSLibertarian1yr1Y
One thing I learned about other cultures is to clarify the name of their languages.
All individuals have reasoning for what they believe and seeing from other viewpoints is very important.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What personal belief of yours aligns with the idea that all humans have equal worth?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How might your local community benefit from a more global perspective?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
If you could solve one problem that affects people globally, what would it be, and why?
@9KT3YXV 1yr1Y
I wouldn't solve any issues, as for the most part solving a single issue just creates a void that a new issue could fill, also I believe that many issues are inherently because of humanities nature and to fix most of them would need a change to inherent human nature itself.
@9KT3VXJ1yr1Y
I would solve sexual assault on everyone, no one deserves to be traumatized by that or the consequences. The assaulters should have a harsher punishment than it is now.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
If you could connect with a student your age in another part of the world, what would you want to learn from them?
@9HX59CZ 1yr1Y
About they’re systems of healthcare and traditional remedies
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Is it possible to maintain strong national pride while also embracing global citizenship?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How could embracing global issues in your local community make a difference?
@9L2R45B1yr1Y
I do not agree with Cosmopotitanism. It could lead to bigger issues. Not all problems need to be dealt with by those who have nothing to do with the current issue. If a war were to arise not all countries around should have to get involved with the issue.
@9L2QQWF1yr1Y
Embracing global issues in your local community makes others sees problems that are not shown, and helps them understand the issues with global issues so that they can make a change in the world.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Do you think global events or crises impact your life, even if they happen far away, and why?
@9HJS5RXWomen’s Equality2yrs2Y
Everyone can see what happens even if it’s far away. with current technology everything is recorded and most times shared online so it involves everyone who sees it. yes my life has been affected by global events
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
If language barriers weren't an issue, who would be the first person you'd interact with from a different culture and why?
@9J3JGNZ1yr1Y
I would interact with anyone because language barriers shouldn't be stopping me from doing so.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How would you approach a conversation with someone who holds a strong nationalistic view opposing cosmopolitan ideals?
@9HJS79N 2yrs2Y
I would shake their hands for being a normal person with common sense.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What's an example where learning from a different cultural perspective led to a better outcome in your community?
@9JDXJN21yr1Y
It is not possible to unite all people under one community besides having to fight together against something important.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How do you feel about the balance between going outside your comfort zone and preserving your cultural norms in a cosmopolitan world?
@9H6SWC82yrs2Y
I like the city, lots of diverse people with different beliefs.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Why do you think cultural exchanges are important for global understanding?
@9KSR8Z21yr1Y
Cultural exchanges proves we aren't all from one community (cosmopolitanism), as there are many different cultures and we are all different in our own ways. We all adapt differently and have different beliefs and live in different places.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What's something valuable you've learned from a culture different from your own?
@9KV8RZ31yr1Y
People think different things based off of family beliefs.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Have you ever been influenced by an international news story, and what personal action did it inspire?
@9KTLJWCRepublican1yr1Y
not really have I been influenced by an international news story unless if its a worldwide issue. It inspired the ability to share with others and warn others about certain dangers.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
If you were to volunteer abroad, what type of project would you choose and why?
@9LG45FZ1yr1Y
One that helps people around the world, so we can have a better place on earth
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would understanding the struggles of others around the world influence your daily decisions?
@9KTLCP51yr1Y
I feel like I do understand many people's struggles but that's only if I already have prior knowledge about it beforehand. Other than that, I realize I don't really think about others' struggles like that but I think knowing people's struggles will definitely influence me to be a lot more empathetic and whatnot.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do you believe international friendships can change our understanding of the world?
@9L4BNJP1yr1Y
International friendship opens your eyes on what the rest of the world may look like. It can form better judgement and perhaps mix the best of government and rules of 2 countries, to make them better collectively
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Have you ever been influenced by a cultural practice or idea from another country that you've incorporated into your own life?
@9JS98QN1yr1Y
Yes I have! In Africa they talk and treat their neighbor's as their brothers and sisters!
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
In what ways can technology both unite and divide people from around the world?
@9LG7T7X1yr1Y
Communication unites people, but communication is not always good. Wars can starts over that and language barriers.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What's one way you could make a difference in someone's life halfway across the world?
@9L7XXVB1yr1Y
The USA has such prominence in the world that it's leaders, policies, ideologies, and wealth will almost inevitably affect more than itself. To take part in (or abstain from) the political process here as a citizen can change the world in often unanticipated ways.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Do you feel a responsibility to people in other countries suffering from crises, and why or why not?
@9L3JDKG1yr1Y
not really, but if I am capable of then should I help
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
What's one action you can take today to contribute to a sense of global community?
@9J6TFYC1yr1Y
Let the lgbtqia+ be they are like you just think different then you.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What's one tradition from another country you'd like to adopt and why?
@9L4PXC5Republican1yr1Y
The highland games from scotland but with american sports.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What role do you think empathy plays in understanding the struggles of people in distant parts of the world?
@9JDXS8K1yr1Y
I'm not 100% sure but I do know I don't like the whole new world order, global citizen stick. It sounds like a bunch of kami gobbledygook to me.
