Nel Bonilla

Nel Bonilla, a writer and researcher behind the Substack “Worldliness: The Threads Connecting Geopolitics,” dives into the complex web of elite networks shaping European geopolitics. She discusses how U.S. influence manifests through a 'uniparty' and suppresses alternative political voices in Europe. The conversation sheds light on powerful transatlantic connections and secretive meetings that drive military narratives and public perception. Bonilla also contrasts U.S. strategies in Europe versus Latin America, revealing a nuanced approach to global influence.

In this insightful discussion, Nel Bonilla, a researcher and Substack analyst, explores the complex dynamics of Western power projection. She argues that instead of retreating, transnational elites are reconfiguring their strategies towards multi-domain warfare. Nel uncovers colonial mindsets entrenched in NATO documents and highlights the urgent framing of competition as a perpetual battle. The risks of escalation, the militarization of society, and the benefits to elites are all critically examined, prompting a call for grassroots organizing as a countermeasure.
