A soft skill refers to a personal attribute or characteristic that enables someone to interact effectively and harmoniously with others.

Soft skills are essential for success in various professional and social contexts, including the workplace, teamwork, leadership, and personal relationships.

Is Liberalism under attack?

I believe the answer may be yes. It's yes because two powerful states in Asia: China and Russia have consolidated authoritarian regime, that the end points may not be visible soon.  These two forces are working tirelessly to globalize oligarchy and authoritarianism.
