Roughly 18 months have passed since New York Magazine published a cover story
declaring that, in the age of President Trump, all the new "it" kids in
Brooklyn (we use the term "kids" loosely; most are well into their 30s)
are avowed socialists.
As the reporter explains, the new generation of Brooklyn cool kids
have blue check marks on twitter and low-paying editorial jobs at
digital magazines like the (now defunct) Outline, Deadspin (a media
outlet ostensibly dedicated to sports but realistically covered whatever
its reporters and editors felt like writing about on any given day) or
Jacobin, a magazine that has been described by some as "straight up
Marxist" in its editorial slant. Almost all of them were white women,
the most oppressed class.
One year later, a staff uprising at the NYT exposed just how deeply
embedded these new crypto-marxist values have become in the modern
American media environment. Staffers successfully ousted Opinion Page
editor James Bennett over his decision to curate an essay from Republican Sen. Tom Cotton
despite the fact that the opinion page is supposed to be an entirely
separate editorial entity from the NYT's newsgathering operation.
This week, the NYT has published a story about a handful of wealthy
heirs who have embraced the socialist credo, and who see their massive
piles of inherited wealth as a symbol of shame, not a blessing for which
they should be extremely grateful.
Take 25-year-old Sam Jacobs, for example. Described as "a socialist
since college", he reportedly sees his family's "'extreme plutocratic
wealth' as both a moral and economic failure".
"I want to build a world where someone like me, a young person who
controls tens of millions of dollars, is impossible," he said.
Fortunately for Jacobs, his grandfather was one of the founders of
Qualcomm, the ubiquitous chipmaker. And even if he gives $30 million
away, he'll still have another $70 million or so coming to him over the
course of his lifetime. And what's more, he's not alone. As the NYT
reports, for all their kvetching about student loans, American
millennials will soon become the beneficiaries of what social scientists
are calling "the great wealth transfer": tens of trillions of dollars
are expected to pass from the hands of baby boomers to their millennial
and Gen X spawn over the coming decade.
However, most American millennials won't inherit anything, except for
"debt, dim job prospects" and a "figment" of the social safety net
(that seems like an exaggeration, especially considering that literally
every single American citizen who reaches the required age will receive a
monthly check from the federal government, part of a program called
"social security", not to mention medicare/medicaid).
But as both a "trust-fund kid and an anticapitalist", Jacobs "is in a
rare position among leftists fighting against economic inequality". And
he's hardly along in trying to navigate "what it means to be with the
99%, when you're the 1%" - embracing the type of reductive, us-vs.-them
thinking promoted by Bernie Sanders and his allies.
30-year-old Rachel Gelman is another example. Her wealthy family gave
generously to liberal causes growing up. Now, as a 30-year-old
preparing to inherit millions from her parents, Gelman is trying to find
a way to give back since most of her family's money "comes from
stocks...which means it comes from underpaying and undervaluing
working-class people, and that’s impossible to disconnect from the
economic legacies of Indigenous genocide and slavery."
Of course, no story about modern day socialism would be complete
without a quote from professor Richard Wolff, an "economist" who
currently teaches at the New School in Manhattan (an overpriced
university dedicated to serving the overprivileged elite who could score
high enough on their SATs to get into NYU).
As Wolff, known to millions of millennials for his guest appearances
on the left wing podcast "Chapo Trap House", explains, all the money
being inherited by today's millennials came from "a mammoth
redistribution away from the working masses, creating a super-rich tiny
minority at the expense of a fleeting American dream."
Later on in the story, one of the heirs whose wealth comes from a
chain of strip malls, said the business model just reeks of
"intersectional oppression".
Heirs whose wealth has come from a specific source sometimes use that
history to guide their giving. Pierce Delahunt, a 32-year-old
"socialist, anarchist, Marxist, communist or all of the above," has a
trust fund that was financed by their former stepfather’s outlet mall
empire. (Mx. Delahunt takes nongendered pronouns.)
"When I think about outlet malls, I think about intersectional
oppression," Mx. Delahunt said. There’s the originally Indigenous land
each mall was built on, plus the low wages paid to retail and food
service workers, who are disproportionately people of color, and the
carbon emissions of manufacturing and transporting the goods. With that
on their mind, Mx. Delahunt gives away $10,000 a month, divided between
50 small organizations, most of which have an anticapitalist mission and
in some way tackle the externalities of discount shopping.
In reality, most of the wealth held by baby boomers wasn't
redistributed, but was in fact created during the 20th century during
the post-war economic boom - an economic movement that generated more
prosperity, and dragged more people out of poverty, than any earlier
period in human history.
PS I
predict a growing industry of setting up "charity" scams to swindle
these kids that are so ignorant they won't know they are getting
fleeced. Think how many people at least twice as smart as them get
scammed by Madoff and such.
Troll them in a chat room, invite them out to your poverty center
with a dozen accomplices playing the victim roles and schedule a monthly
distribution. Use the same setup with a different name to swindle
other hipster dufuses. Farm as many subsidies as they can.
The globalist
technocracy is using the COVID-19 pandemic to bypass democratic
accountability, override opposition, accelerate their agenda and to
impose it on the public against our will
The Great Reset
refers to a global agenda to monitor and control the world through
digital surveillance. You’ll be tied to it through an electronic ID
linked to your bank account and health records, and a social credit ID
that will end up dictating every facet of your life
The Great Reset
is about getting rid of capitalism and free enterprise, and replacing
them with technocracy, publicly referred to as “sustainable development”
and “stakeholder capitalism”
There’s not a
single area of life that is left out of this Great Reset plan. The
planned reform will affect everything from government, energy and
finance to food, medicine, real estate, policing and even how we
interact with our fellow human beings in general
Privacy
protections are a major hurdle in this plan, which is why every effort
is made to get people to loosen their views on the right for privacy. In
the U.S., we also have the Constitution that stands in the way, which
is why efforts to undermine, circumvent, ignore or nullify it are
increasing
What is this “Great Reset” we’re now
hearing about? In a nutshell, the Great Reset refers to a global agenda
to monitor and control the world through digital surveillance.
As explained by journalist James Corbett in his October 16, 2020, Corbett Report above,1
the Great Reset is a new “social contract” that ties every person to it
through an electronic ID linked to your bank account and health
records, and a social credit ID that will end up dictating every facet
of your life.
It’s about getting rid of capitalism and free enterprise, and
replacing them with “sustainable development” and “stakeholder
capitalism” — terms that belie their nefarious, anti-humanity intents.
As noted in the book, “Technocracy: The Hard Road to World Order”:2
“… Sustainable Development is Technocracy … The Sustainable
Development movement has taken careful steps to conceal its true
identity, strategy and purpose, but once the veil is lifted, you will
never see it any other way. Once its strategy is unmasked, everything
else will start to make sense.”
The Grand Plan
In her blog post “The Great Reset for Dummies,” Tessa Lena summarizes the purpose behind the call for a global “reset”:3
“The mathematical reason for the Great Reset is that thanks to
technology, the planet has gotten small, and the infinite expansion
economic model is bust — but obviously, the super wealthy want to
continue staying super wealthy, and so they need a miracle, another
bubble, plus a surgically precise system for managing what they
perceive as ‘their limited resources.’
Thus, they desperately want a bubble providing new growth out of
thin air — literally — while simultaneously they seek to tighten the
peasants’ belts, an effort that starts with ‘behavioral modification,’
a.k.a. resetting the western peasants’ sense of entitlement to high
life standards and liberties (see awful ‘privilege’).
The psychological reason for the Great Reset is the fear of
losing control of property, the planet. I suppose, if you own billions
and move trillions, your perception of reality gets funky, and
everything down below looks like an ant hill that exists for you. Just
ants and numbers, your assets. Thus, the practical aim of the Great
Reset is to fundamentally restructure the world’s economy and
geopolitical relations based on two assumptions:
One, that every element of nature and every life form is a part
of the global inventory (managed by the allegedly benevolent state,
which, in turn, is owned by several suddenly benevolent wealthy people,
via technology).
And two, that all inventory needs to be strictly accounted for:
be registered in a central database, be readable by a scanner and
easily ID’ed, and be managed by AI, using the latest ‘science.’
The goal is to count and then efficiently manage and control all
resources, including people, on an unprecedented scale, with
unprecedented digital … precision — all while the masters keep
indulging, enjoying vast patches of conserved nature, free of
unnecessary sovereign peasants and their unpredictability.”
Global Asset Reallocations Will Not Benefit ‘the People’
These new global “assets” can also be turned into brand new
financial instruments that can then be traded. An example of this was
given by Vandana Shiva, Ph.D., in my interview with her.
In it, she explained how India is headed toward Zero-Budget Natural Farming
— a brand-new concept of farming in which farmers must trade the
carbon rate in their soil on the global market if they want to make a
living. They’ll get no money at all for the crops they actually grow.
There’s not a single area of life that is left out of this Great
Reset plan. The planned reform will affect everything from government,
energy and finance to food, medicine, real estate, policing and even
how we interact with our fellow human beings in general.
Privacy protections, of course, are a major hurdle in this plan,
which is why every effort is made to get people to loosen their views
on the right for privacy. In the U.S., we also have the Constitution that stands in the way, which is why efforts to undermine, circumvent, ignore or nullify it are increasing.
“To sum it up, the desired end result is a giant, joyless,
highly controlled global conveyor of everything and everybody where
privacy is tremendously expensive, dissent is unthinkable, and spiritual
submission is mandatory.
It’s like a 24/7 medicated reality, except the medications are
both chemical and digital, and they are reporting you back to the
mothership, which can then punish you for bad behavior by, say,
blocking your access to certain places or by putting a hold on your
digital bank account — perhaps without any human intervention at all,” Lena writes.4
Stakeholder Capitalism
An October 5, 2020, Winter Oak article5
addressed the “technocratic fascist vision” of professor Klaus Schwab,
founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum who wrote
the book on the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Schwab announced the World Economic Forum’s Great Reset Initiative in June 2020, which includes stripping all people of their privately owned assets.
In addition to being a staunch technocrat, Schwab also has a strong
transhumanist bend, and he has spoken of a near future in which humans
merge with machines and in which law enforcement will be able to read
our mind.6
Winter Oak — a British nonprofit social justice organization —
points out that Schwab and his globalist accomplices are using the
COVID-19 pandemic “to bypass democratic accountability, to override
opposition, to accelerate their agenda and to impose it on the rest of
humankind against our will.”
This is no conspiracy theory. The plan is out in the open. As noted by Time magazine,7
“The COVID-19 pandemic has provided a unique opportunity to think
about the kind of future we want.” The same statement has been
delivered by a number of politicians and organizations around the world
in recent months.
Schwab’s book,8,9
“COVID-19: The Great Reset” also urges industry leaders and decision
makers to “make good use of the pandemic” and “not letting the crisis
go to waste.” Incidentally, the owner of Time magazine and founder of
Salesforce, Mark Benioff, is also a board member of the World Economic
Forum,10 so he’s clearly familiar with the reset plan.
The problem is that while the plan is being sold as a way to,
finally, make life fair and equitable for all people, the required
sacrifices do not apply to the technocrats running the system.
Ultimately, the Great Reset will result in two tiers or people: the
technocratic elite, who have all the power and rule over all assets,
and the rest of humanity, who have no power, no assets and no say-so in
anything.
While technocracy is not a political system but an economic one, in
practical terms it does resemble fascism. None of it is being sold
under the banner of fascism, of course. Instead, they use financial
terms like “stakeholder capitalism,” described by Forbes magazine11
as “the notion that a firm focuses on meeting the needs of all its
stakeholders: customers, employees, partners, the community and society
as a whole.”
In that same article, Forbes points out that this strategy has
already been tried and failed. It failed because balancing conflicting
stakeholder claims was near-impossible and only led to mass confusion
and poor returns. The failure of this strategy is what led big
businesses to focus on maximizing shareholder value instead.
Now, at a time when big business finds itself under attack for
“single-mindedly shoveling money to its shareholders and its executives
at the expense of customers, employees, the environment and society as
a whole,” the answer, they say, is to return to stakeholder
capitalism. But if it didn’t work before, what makes us think it will
work now?
Great Reset Plan for Big Food
A November 9, 2020, article12
in The Defender, a new media platform by the Children’s Health Defense,
also points out the problems with the World Economic Forum’s Great
Reset plan for the food industry:
“The architects of the plan claim it will reduce food scarcity,
hunger and disease, and even mitigate climate change. But a closer look
at the corporations and think tanks the WEF is partnering with to
usher in this global transformation suggests that the real motive is
tighter corporate control over the food system by means of
technological solutions.”
Aside from the food industry, partners13
include data mining giants, telecommunications, weapons manufacturers,
finance, drug companies and the biotechnology industry.
Looking at that list, it should come as no surprise that the World
Economic Forum insists the future of food and public health hinges on
genetically modified organisms (GMOs), laboratory-grown protein, drugs
and industrial chemicals.
The EAT Forum and the Rise of Food Imperialism
To further the fake food takeover, the World Economic Forum has
partnered with the EAT Forum, which will set the political agenda for
global food production. The EAT Forum was cofounded by the Wellcome
Trust, which in turn was established with the financial help of
GlaxoSmithKline.
EAT currently collaborates with nearly 40 city governments across
Africa, Europe, Asia, North and South America and Australia, and
maintains close relationships with imitation meat companies such as
Impossible Foods, which was cofounded by Google, Jeff Bezos and Bill
Gates.14
As noted by The Defender, the ultimate aim is to “replace wholesome
nutritious foods with genetically modified lab creations.” To this end,
EAT is working with the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) to
establish global dietary guidelines and sustainable development
initiatives.
The “Planetary Health Diet”15
developed by EAT is a diet that is supposed to replace all others.
Federic Leroy, a food science and biotechnology professor at University
of Brussels told The Defender:16
“The diet aims to cut the meat and dairy intake of the global
population by as much as 90% in some cases and replaces it with
lab-made foods, cereals and oil.”
Vandana Shiva, Ph.D., has raised harsh critique against the proposed
diet saying it “is not about nutrition at all. It’s about big business
and it’s about a corporate takeover of the food system.”17 The Defender adds:18
“According to EAT’s own reports, the big adjustments the
organization and its corporate partners want to make to the food system
are ‘unlikely to be successful if left up to the individual,’ and the
changes they wish to impose on societal eating habits and food ‘require
reframing at the systemic level with hard policy interventions that
include laws, fiscal measures, subsidies and penalties, trade
reconfiguration and other economic and structural measures.’
But Shiva said this is the wrong approach, because ‘all of the
science’ shows that diets should be centered around regional and
geographical biodiversity. She explained that ‘EAT’s uniform global
diet will be produced with western technology and agricultural
chemicals. Forcing this onto sovereign nations by multinational
lobbying is what I refer to as food imperialism.’”
The Future of Food and Health Care
You can get a feel for where the future of food is headed by analyzing the World Economic Forum’s strategic intelligence map.19
As you can see, this top-down approach ties food production to a wide
range of sectors, including biotech, the chemical industry, artificial
intelligence, the internet of things and the digital economy.
For more details on Schwab and the World Economic Forum’s strategic intelligence plan, see Covert Geopolitic’s article,20 “Breaking Down the Global Elite’s Great Reset Master Plan.”
If any of this raises your concern, you’re probably not going to
like what the World Health Economic Forum has in store for health care
reform either. As detailed on their website:21
“Our current capital intensive, hospital-centric model is
unsustainable and ineffective. The Platform for Shaping the Future of
Health and Healthcare leverages a data-enabled delivery system and
virtual care, integrated across the continuum of care from precision
prevention to personalized care delivery …”
Aiding the World Economic Forum in this health care transformation
are the biggest corporate criminals in the history of the modern world,
including Bill Gates, AstraZeneca,22Bayer,23 Johnson & Johnson,24 Merck,25 Pfizer,26 Novartis27 and a host of others.28
These companies have at various times been found guilty of all sorts
of crimes that they have paid tens of billions of dollars in fines
for. They are also loaded with conflicts of interest in nearly every
venture they are involved with. Yet we’re now supposed to believe these
companies are going to put aside their profit incentives and fix the
whole system?
Build Back Better
As noted in a July 21, 2020, World Economic Forum article,29
the economic devastation caused by COVID-19 pandemic shutdowns “has the
potential to hobble global prosperity for generations to come.” The
answer is to come up with stimulus measures, such as infrastructure
development, that can allow countries to move forward.
But while at it, countries are urged to make sure the economic
system is “built back better.” Make no mistake, this catchy slogan is
part and parcel of the Great Reset plan and cannot be separated from
it, no matter how altruistic it may sound. As reported by Fox News:30
“A radical movement called the Great Reset embraced by some
Democrats poses a grave threat to liberty and free markets in the
United States and around the world … The Great Reset is perhaps the
biggest danger to capitalism and individual rights since the collapse
of the Soviet Union …
It would destroy the current capitalist system and replace it
with progressive and modern socialist systems, with a special emphasis
placed on eco-socialist policies … Policy ideas offered by ‘Great Reset’
advocates include government-provided basic income programs, universal
health care, massive tax increases and the Green New Deal …
For example, at a campaign event on July 9, Biden said we need
to end the ‘era of shareholder capitalism,’ a major part of the Great
Reset proposal that would alter how companies are evaluated, elevating
social justice causes and climate change concerns over property rights …
The Build Back Better plan comes straight from the Great Reset’s
playbook … As recently as July 13, the World Economic Forum promoted
‘building back better’ through ‘green’ infrastructure programs as part
of the Great Reset …”
Part of the “building back better” is to shift the financial system
over to an all-digital currency system, which in turn is part of the
system of social control, as it can easily be used to incentivize
desired behaviors and discourage undesired ones.
An August 13, 2020, article31
on the Federal Reserve website discusses the supposed benefits of a
central bank digital currency (CBDC). There’s general agreement among
experts that most major countries will implement CBDC within the next
two to four years.
Many uninformed people believe that these new CBDCs will be very
similar to existing cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, but they would be
mistaken. Bitcoin is decentralized and a rational strategy to opt out
of the existing central bank controlled system, while these CBDCs will
be centralized and completely controlled by the central banks and will
have smart contracts that allow the banks to surveil and control your
life.
The Great Reset Psyops Guide
It goes without saying that to achieve the kind of radical
transformation of every part of society has its challenges. No person
in their right mind would agree to it if aware of the details of the
whole plan. So, to roll this out, they had to use psychological
manipulation, and fear is the most effective tool there is.
As explained by psychiatrist Dr. Peter Breggin,
there’s an entire school of public health research that focuses on
identifying the most effective ways to frighten people into accepting
desired public health measures.
By adding confusion and uncertainty to the mix, you can bring an
individual from fear to anxiety — a state of confusion in which you can
no longer think logically — and in this state, you are more easily
manipulated. The following graphic illustrates the central role of
fearmongering for the successful rollout of the Great Reset.
Social Engineering Is Central to Technocratic Rule
In closing, keep in mind that technocracy is inherently a
technological society run through social engineering. Fear is but one
manipulation tool. The focus on “science” is another. Anytime someone
dissents, they’re simply accused of being “anti-science,” and any
science that conflicts with the status quo is declared “debunked
science.”
The only science that matters is whatever the technocrats deem to be
true, no matter how much evidence there is against it. We’ve seen this
first hand during this pandemic, as Big Tech has censored and banned
anything going against the opinions of the World Health Organization,
which is just another cog in the technocratic machine.
If we allow this censorship
to continue, the end result will be nothing short of devastating. We
simply must keep pushing for transparency and truth. We must insist on
medical freedom, personal liberty and the right to privacy.
One fight in particular that I don’t see us being able to evade is
the fight against mandatory COVID-19 vaccinations. If we don’t take a
firm stand against that and fight for the right to make our own choice,
there will be no end to the medical tyranny that will follow. As noted
in the Covert Geopolitics article:32
“As you might have guessed, ‘the most important anchor of
recovery’ is for a COVID-19 vaccination … The implication is that
without a vaccine the world will be unable to return to any sense of
normality, particularly in terms of open interaction with your fellow
man …
You can actually participate in the global efforts to cripple
the Deep State organized criminal cabal's ability for genocide, while
enjoying healthcare freedom at the same time, by boycotting Big Pharma
for good.”
Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada, has just come out publicly
confirming now that Trump is out of the way, they will bring about the Great Reset.
They will achieve equality by reducing the wealth and employment of the
middle class while the superrich will become the overlords of this new
normal. They are deliberately destroying the economy to create economic
chaos for they believe they can rebuild it GREEN and
end the disparity of income which is Communism 3.0. There have been
leaked letters many say are fake because Trudeau had come out and had to
deny them three times. They have said what he is saying just with more
detail.
There is a great risk that they will seize all assets and you will
own nothing precisely as Klaus Schwab has been telling these leaders
when they come to his World Economic Forum at Davos.
Schwab and Thomas Piketty are out to conquer the world and force Marxism
once again by sheer authoritarianism/tyranny. They have used this fake
pandemic to terrorize people in order to collapse the economy. These
politicians no longer represent us – they have crossed the line into
despots. They do not believe in capitalism, freedom, and human rights.
We are the great unwashed, unworthy to be considered for we are too
ignorant to know what is best for us or our family.
Their promises of utopia even Lenin knew were false claims. They wish
to strip us of all freedom, keep us locked down to destroy our jobs and
the fossil fuel industry, and then for survival hand us basic
guaranteed income. If we dare to object, they will cut off all funds and
starve us to death.
Trudeau has confirmed that Canada is on track for the 2030 Agenda following the World Economic Forum.
Those who foolishly voted for Biden will soon realize they voted
against their own self-interest, employment, their families, and their
posterity. Listen to the words of Trudeau, then listen to Schwab’s 8
predictions for 2030 that Trudeau has just endorsed.
All the European leaders are also on board as are the Democrats in the
USA. Biden will declare a national lockdown in February and it will not
be for just 4 to 6 weeks.
For those who think this is all BS, you better start opening your eyes and your mind or you WILL lose EVERYTHING! We do not have a lot of time left. They will suspend elections next come 2022.
I live in Canada. Our PM had our former finance minister take the
fall for their blatant corruption, is blocking and tackling every move
to bring it to light and is turning our parliamentary government against
the people, working to crush the economy, impose lockdowns, raid our
government-mandated employment insurance funds to provide universal
income under different guises, even congratulating Biden, pushing
vaccines, masks, etc. exactly following the globalist gameplan. The
government here is doing whatever it can to push the boundaries of
freedoms supported by the media everywhere here, and unlike the US –
Canadians still put too much faith in government.
What’s ongoing around the world (marxism/socialism/communism
‘revolution’, WEF, ID/vaccine tagging, Covid, control, loss of freedoms,
indoctrination of the youth, MSM manipulation, etc) let alone in the US
is very disheartening. Many of my friends and family remain oblivious
to the larger picture. I see it, albeit without the full picture – I
see some of the moves, countermoves and manipulation playing out.
You’ve mentioned repeatedly that from a cycle perspective, you have
never seen cycles altered, however, you have seen the amplitude affected
and cycle inversions. What do you believe can be done by whoever
(myself, people, groups, agencies) to minimize the negative amplitude of
this draconian decline so we can moderate a hard fall, possibly push
forward a bloodless revolution and steer towards a future we want to
live in?
The US particularly has only really been around for one
309year/224year cycle (if memory serves). However, we have instances of
prior civilizations/empires surviving multiple rounds largely intact
before their eventual decline – what are some key differences and
attributes we can look to moderate? Is there anything that can be done
to push forward a cycle inversion and prevent the worst-case scenario
from playing out? I see President Trump’s plans are starting to play
out, possibly with a climax in the coming weeks/months although that
also remains uncertain.
I appreciate any thoughts you could provide.

ANSWER:
Those elitists have wrongly assumed that war takes place between
governments and as such eliminating competing governments and creating
just one will eliminate war. This is the entire theory behind creating
the EU as even the former French President clearly states in the EU
Parliament. Socrates has been warning that (1) the peak in Western
government took place in 2015.75. One year before, the European Central
Bank (ECB) moved to negative interest rates in 2014 destroying their
bond markets and undermining pension funds. That was the beginning of
the end for after 6 years, all the creation of money by purchasing
government debt has failed to provide any stimulus and as a result, the
ECB has lost all power and is trapped. I have offered a solution that
preserves our way of life but reduces the power of the politicians. They
prefer Schwab’s solution – seize all assets with Communism 3.0 and
default on debt.
There is no question that Trudeau has met with EU leaders ahead of the U.S. election to reinforce support their real agenda to push for a Great Reset that will destroy businesses. Biden will impose a nationwide lockdown probably by February 2021. The Canadian politician who is said to have leaked the new COVID lockdown plan and ‘Great Reset’
dictatorship stating that Australia has signed on to this I have been
unable to verify that it is authentic. However, everything it says from
the IMF saying all property is to be surrendered in return for wiping
out all personal debt is very much what is being said behind closed
doors in Europe. Hence, the Canadian leak is not inconsistent with what I
know from other sources.
Biden will impose a lockdown on the entire country
when he takes office destroying countless small businesses. This is all
part of a plan to destroy jobs making people dependent on the state
with Guaranteed Basic Income and the bourgeoisie which in Marxism is small businesses. Marx saw the bourgeoisie as
the social class that came to own the means of production during modern
industrialization and whose societal concerns are the value of the
property and the preservation of capital to ensure the perpetuation of
their economic supremacy in society. He never considered the employment
they provided but instead they would have nothing without labor. This is
the objective of the lockdowns. You can see it already in London.
The U.S. presidential election of 2020 confirms the general trend
rushing into the arms of Schwab because they cannot continue to sell
debt and they cannot ever pay off what has already been accumulated.
Pensions of state workers are insolvent. Even in the United States
Social Security is insolvent for it invests only in government bonds and
earns next to nothing.
We are looking at these measures as their only way out and the vast
majority of people are oblivious to reality. This will lead to the
dissolution of nation-states such as Canada and the United States. In
Canada, it will take the form of war between the west v east. In the USA
it will be the South & Mid West against New England and the West.
The world population is going through a crisis of civilization and is
inexorably heading inexorably towards a new civil war that will break
out in many countries that should logically lead to the partition of the
countries. This instability should result in the end of the West as a
super-power.

I
seriously doubt that we can reach a bloodless resolution. There is a
far greater risk that we have crossed the Rubicon. The politicians have
turned to hate-politics to win. Even unleashing racism just to win the
election was a huge mistake. They will not be able to put that back in
the bottle again until the next election.
Human Rights Attorney, Leigh Dundas, delivers current updates from the Trump election campaign team and attorneys regarding the battle ground states' election results status.
Because of censorship by BIG TECH, I am sharing this important info on the attempted theft of the presidential election. NOTE from the author: The evidence is overwhelming: here is the short version of where this is going.
But as with everything else which these elements of the left and
their allies in the media push, this is simply false. While the overlap
between white people – that is, people of European descent and some
Christian populations in the Caucasus
– and Western culture is undeniable, it is likewise undeniable that
Western culture is no longer the exclusive domain of whites. What we can
call, without the slightest bit of stretching the truth, Western
culture is present not just in Western Europe, North America and Australia, but also in former British colonies such as Israel, Singapore and Hong Kong.
What’s more, a country simply being part of Europe does not make it
“Western” in any meaningful sense. While there is a certain Western
cultural continuum based around Christianity that extends from Lisbon to Vladivostok, it would be overly simplistic (and indeed, a bit demeaning) to label the post-Soviet countries as “Western.” They have a similar set of cultural values rooted in Christianity, however, even the introduction of democracy
has not made many post-Soviet and post-colonial nations more liberal in
the true sense of the word – open markets, an emphasis on free speech,
strong private property rights, an independent, impartial judiciary, and
the primacy of the individual over that of the group.
Throughout this article we will provide some terms to define what we
mean by “Western culture.” We will also make the case that Western
cultural values have a universal aspect in the sense that they can be
applied with success anywhere in the world, that these values are
objectively superior to other value sets at maximizing human freedom, quality of life,
and potential, and that the belief in this superiority has nothing to
do with “racism” in the sense that it is commonly understood by ordinary
people.
One demonstration of the proof that these values are objectively
superior is that "people vote with their feet", as Dr. Jordan Peterson points out:
"The fundamental assumptions of Western civilization are valid. Here's
how you know: Which countries do people want to move away from? Not
ours. Which countries do people want to move to? Ours! Guess what, they
work better. And it's not because we went around the world stealing
everything we could get our hands on. It's because we got certain
fundamental assumptions right - and thank God for that."
What Are Western Values?
Before going any further, it is necessary to define what we mean by
“Western values.” Indeed, what we mean by this is very specific and has a
basis not in the West at large, but specifically in Anglo-Saxon culture.
Virtually all of the values that we will identify in this article as
being “Western” are perhaps more accurately termed “Anglo-Saxon values.”
However, as the former term is more concise, succinct and in greater
general use, we will use “Western values” throughout this article.
So what are these values? What is their origin? Where do they come from?
Again, it is our belief that what we call “Western values” are rooted
firmly in the Anglo-Saxon tradition above all else. The formalization
of these values can be found in the Magna Carta,
but this simply codifies values that had been practiced in long
standing in post-Anglo-Saxon Britain and likely long before it in some
sense, going back to the days when the Angles and Saxons roamed the
border regions between what is now Germany and Denmark.
While the Magna Carta is a complicated document, for our purposes it
means something succinct and simple: it means that the king is not above
the law.
There are a number of principles that flow from this general
recognition that form the bedrock of Western civilization: Legal norms
apply to everyone regardless of social class. The right to a fair trial
by a jury of one’s peers and the right to face one’s accuser in open
court. The right to one’s own property and the right to defend that
property using deadly force. While these rights have all been hemmed in – in extreme ways in some cases, particularly since the events of September 11, 2001 – the point is that they form the bedrock of our legal structure and value culture in the West.
To boil this down to a single sentence: the West believes that men have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
and that these rights can only be deprived through due process of law.
Both national constitutions and prevailing moral attitudes prevent angry
mobs or powerful oligarchs from systematically depriving unpopular and
powerless minorities of their rights.
Are Western Values Universal?
Western values are not universal in the sense that they will
eventually be arrived upon by all cultures given enough time. They are
not, contra Francis Fukuyama, an endpoint of history, a teleological
goal post that all of humanity has been moving toward for its entire
existence. It comes out of a very specific lineage, the Anglo-Saxon
culture of yeoman farmers, freeholding lords, restive barons and, more
than anything else, a total rejection of the notion of authoritarian
kings who could rule at their whim without, at the very least, the
consent of the men providing armed bodies for their war efforts and
paying the lion’s share of taxes.
But perhaps Western values are universal in another, different
respect. Consider what we said earlier: These values are by no means
limited to the Anglosphere, though they do seem to be strongest
in former British colonies – North America, Australia, Israel,
Singapore, Hong Kong. These values manifest in different ways in each of
these places and it would be more than a little odd if they didn’t.
Property Rights
However, the basic notion that there are a set of legal norms applying to everyone and, perhaps more importantly, that property rights are as important as other rights such as free speech,
seem to have a universality about them. By this we mean that everywhere
they have been put into practice, they have yielded impressive results
in allowing human society to reach a greater potential while also
providing better results for greater numbers of people.
Why does this matter? Well, Communist nations have historically
raised living standards dramatically. Compare Russia during the waning
days of the Romanovs to the Soviet Union in the 50s, 60s and 70s, or
China today to China 70 years ago. But this is only impressive if you
ignore the failure of Communism with regard to the rights of the
individual and the rather sterile record of Communists with regard to
innovation and invention. Sure, the Soviets beat America in the space
race by putting a few dogs and satellites in the air – and then promptly
did nothing else. Similarly, China is known far more for stealing
Western intellectual property than it is for innovating its own.
Quality of Life
Innovation is necessary for both maintaining quality of life for
large and growing populations, and for increasing quality of life.
Again, China presents an important test case in what happens in a
growing economy without transparency, an emphasis on the rights of the
individual and the freedom to innovate that comes with an open, liberal
economy: China’s one-child policy, which has been demographically
disastrous beyond the humanitarian considerations, as well as its
environmental degradation are both symptoms of a society that has become
aggressively anti-liberal, stifling innovation.
Indeed, the results are plain to see: Of the ten countries in the world with the best quality of life,
three of them are former British colonies – Canada came in at number
one, Australia and New Zealand. One was in personal union with Britain
(the Netherlands), four are Nordic countries with a similar emphasis on
the rights of the individual and due process (Sweden, Denmark, Norway
and Finland), and one is arguably the country in the world with a value
system most closely resembling that of the Anglo-Saxons (Switzerland).
Former British colony Singapore comes in at number 20, behind only Japan
and China (which includes Hong Kong – and we wonder how much lifting
that former British Crown Colony is doing for the People’s Republic) in
Asia. Malaysia and India, both former British colonies, come in the top
30, beating out even a number of European countries outside of what we
have defined as “the West,” such as Russia, Bulgaria and Slovakia.
Quality of life is an important metric because it includes
non-material and non-economic factors. How subjectively happy are
people? Are they satisfied with their lives or are they simply awash in
money? Do they want to have children? Are they invested in society
through mechanisms such as home ownership? All of these questions will
yield a far more accurate picture of a country’s quality of life than
simply looking at their GDP or per capita income.
Nobel Laureates
There are other ways of demonstrating the kind of cultural
superiority that we are talking about. One of these is by looking at the
countries who have produced the most Nobel Laureates:
Despite the prize being of Norwegian extraction, two Anglosphere
countries, the United States and the United Kingdom, absolutely dominate
the rest of the world with regard to winning Nobel prizes: Of the 866
individuals who have received Nobel prizes as of 2020, 516 of them
(nearly 60 percent) have been from these two countries.
All five of the top five slots are occupied by Western nations, with
these five countries (the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany,
France and Sweden) making up a whopping 83 percent of all recipients.
Within the top ten, we see an additional three Western countries
(Switzerland, Canada and Austria) and the share of Western countries in
the top ten expands to fully 92 percent of all Nobel prize recipients.
This achievement is so lopsided that it must be discussed by anyone seriously considering this topic.
Technological Achievements
Technological achievements are difficult to quantify. What one
considers to be an important technological achievement might be rejected
by another as insignificant. However, this list created by The Atlantic
is not a terrible representation of the most important technological
achievements since the invention of the wheel. While nearly all of these
were invented somewhere on the continent of Europe, what is more
striking and important is how many of them were created in the West
in the way that we have defined it – i.e., those cultures most
embracing the values summarized in the Magna Carta and its
extrapolations.
Corruption and Transparency
Finally, there is the matter of corruption and transparency in
government. The Corruption Perceptions Index ranks 180 different nations
around the world in terms of transparency, accountability, general
fairness and other important factors. Of the top ten countries for 2019,
nine are in Europe. The one that is not is the former British colony of
Singapore, a country that is light on democracy but heavy on freedom,
transparency, accountability and the rule of law. Former British crown
colony Hong Kong – thankfully ranked separately from the People’s
Republic of China – comes in at number 16, ahead of Japan, Ireland and
Belgium. Indeed, the two Asian former British colonies come out ahead of
the United States according to the terms established by the Corruption Perceptions Index.
One of the reasons for America’s low rank among Western countries is
because Americans often watch in disbelief as top government officials
leave public service and cash in on their expertise in the private
sector, regardless of the crimes they committed while in office –
whereas in a place like Sweden, when a politician is caught violating
the public’s trust for even minor infractions like drunk driving, they immediately resign. Consider how Edward Snowden and Julian Assange are fugitives facing charges while General David Petraeus
(who provided his illicit lover and favorable biographer information so
secret it defied classification, including the names of covert
operatives and the president’s private thoughts on matters of strategic
concern), former director of the NSA General Keith Alexander (who lied under oath to Congress and the courts about the NSA spying on U.S. citizens), and former CIA Director James Clapper
(who also lied under oath to the Senate Intelligence Committee in order
protect his agency from oversight) all breathe free air.
Are Western Values Superior to Other Value Systems?
Whether
or not Western values are “superior” to other value systems is entirely
reliant upon what one considers to be the ideal results for a society.
Honest and good people have disagreements on this topic. However, we
believe that in the West, there is a general, broad agreement on what
constitutes a “good” result for society best summed up by two
principles: freedom and fairness.
Freedom and fairness are, in fact, two ideas that are in tension with
one another because they are often mutually contradictory. What makes
one man free might be unfair in a meaningful sense to another. Indeed,
the left-right spectrum in the United States and the Anglosphere might
be described as the Party of Freedom (for example, the Republicans)
versus the Party of Fairness (in this case, the Democrats).
Both of these values are important to everyone to varying degrees.
The resolution of this tension – drawing the line at some point between
fairness and freedom – is effectively what our entire civilization is
about. It is about maximizing results for the greatest number of people,
creating a society that is as fair as it can possibly be while
minimally infringing on the rights of individuals.
In a word, Western values can be described as “liberalism” in the sense that John Stuart Mill and John Locke
would have understood the term. While there are coherent and important
arguments about the limitations of liberalism on both the left and the
right, both sides of the political spectrum have thus far failed to
offer an alternative to classical liberalism that provides the same
degree of generalized prosperity and individual liberty that Western
civilization has provided using classical liberalism as its de facto political ideology.
If one believes that freedom and fairness are not important, this
doesn’t mean much. However, most Americans and most Westerners believe,
whether they are aware of this specific description or not, that freedom
and fairness are important and perhaps the most important values that a society can aspire to.
What’s more, we believe that these values are directly responsible
for the material prosperity and plenty that characterizes these
societies. Individuals are able to pursue happiness in their own way
and, for the most part, retain the fruits of their labor. This creates
motivation for innovations that raise the standard of living across the
board, from top to bottom.
Is It Racist To View Western Values As Superior?
When the superiority of Western values is touted, the retort is often
that prizing these values above all others – indeed, recognizing them
as “superior” in some way – constitutes “racism.” We believe this is not
an unreasonable response to the claims that we are making and that it
requires specific attention. Ultimately, however, we find that the
argument that Western cultural superiority is racist to be lacking.
Before we go any further, we wish to clarify that we will only use
the terms “racist” and “racism” in the sense that they are commonly
understood by the average person: racially motivated hatred, domination
and subjugation. We will not use the Marxist-influenced definition,
which effectively defines entire groups of people as “racist” regardless of their views, actions or motivations.
We have already discussed above that there are a number of countries
that have adopted Western cultural values outside of Europe. This is not
an insignificant point when it comes to defending the viewpoint of
Western cultural superiority against racism.
There is also the small matter of generalized racial, ethnic and
religious tolerance that characterizes the West. Western nations have,
on average, the greatest degree of tolerance and pluralism in the world.
Much of our public discourse in the West is about how to best balance
tolerance with the above mentioned principles of fairness and freedom.
Western nations often include in the upper echelons of their
academic, cultural, economic and political structures, prominent members
who are of non-European extraction, either the descendents of African
slaves or more recent immigrants from other parts of the world. This is
not to be hand-waved away – can, for example, Arab nations boast of
black politicians, entertainers and entrepreneurs? Is there a similar
phenomenon of Asian achievement within the African cultural sphere? Put
simply, there is no equivalent to the social mobility that Western
nations offer diasporic, immigrant and formerly enslaved populations
anywhere else in the world. This speaks to the universal quality that we
mentioned previously – Western values do not advantage or disadvantage
any specific group.
We would also be remiss if we did not recognize the institution of
chattel slavery and the degree to which it has largely been ended in the
West – and indeed, throughout the world, thanks to the efforts of
Western nations. Chattel slavery is flagrantly incompatible with Western
cultural values, which is why it has largely been eradicated in the
West and its former colonies. It’s largely a legal non sequitur
throughout the world today. And while there are forms of bonded and
unfree labor, they are aberrant and concentrated in areas where Western
influence is at its weakest. Enslaving another human being is generally
seen as the worst crime a person can commit, dwarfing even rape and
murder in its magnitude, being in roughly the same category as war
crimes and genocide.
The role of slavery in the West is a complicated one, but it is worth
noting that while Western nations did not invent slavery, an
institution as old as recorded history at the very least, they have done
more than anyone else to end it. The British Empire abolished slavery throughout the empire in 1833.
The United States fought one of the bloodiest wars in human history to
end bonded labor within its borders. Each of these together acted as a
one-two punch that effectively ended slavery in the West. Where slavery
persisted in Europe, it did so largely under the auspices of the Islamic
Ottoman Empire and the Orthodox Russian Empire.
Finally, a significant portion of Western discourse in the
intervening years has been about how to increase participation,
toleration and pluralism throughout Western societies. Greater and
greater inclusion is a hallmark of Western civilization as part of its
generalized emphasis on freedom and fairness. None of this is
representative of Western civilization being “racist,” thus prioritizing
the values of Western civilization above that of other cultures is not
racist.
What of Multiculturalism?
“Multiculturalism”
is one of those words that is often bandied about with very little
thought as to what it actually means. Being a multiculturalist does not
mean that one finds something of value in other cultures. It means that
one considers all cultures to be of equal merit and that cultural values
and practices become beyond reproach simply because they are cultural
practices.
Like many things that the left pushes, multiculturalism is not a good
faith position. No one, for example, argues in earnest from a position
of multiculturalism that Confederate monuments ought to remain standing
because they are a part of Southern culture. Indeed, those most loudly
touting the multiculturalist line are those least respectful of the
cultural norms and mores of Appalachia, South Boston or Deer Lodge,
Montana. Multiculturalists are quite vocal about their distaste for the
cultural practices of unwoke whites, and this distaste is by no means limited to outbursts of violent racism. See, for example, the current cultural jihad against debutante balls in the American South.
What’s more, the multicultural appreciation of other cultures tends
to be very shallow and performative. The affluent and educated like to
“travel,” but largely spend their time cooped up on resorts or at pubs
and restaurants catering to tourists such as themselves. One can
scarcely get ten seconds into a conversation about immigration without
hearing a multiculturalist moan about who will make our tacos. Much
rarer is the person who speaks Arabic, has read Proust in the original
French, or has spent a summer living with a Cuban family in Havana. The
average multiculturalist generally doesn’t even know the capital of
Zimbabwe or the chief export of Vietnam.
There is certainly much to appreciate about and learn from other
cultures, but the same types of people touting multiculturalism are
generally opposed to this, lambasting it as “cultural appropriation.”
Whites, we are told, are not allowed to have dreadlocks or wear hoop earrings.
No word on whether or not non-whites are allowed to get vaccines or fly
in airplanes, but we do see a growing consensus among the left that “there’s no such thing as white culture.”
Multiculturalism must be understood for what it really is: it is a
form of weaponizing the Western sense of “live and let live” and fair
play for the purpose of subverting and attacking that culture. One
manifestation of this phenomenon is the No Go Zone,
a place where law and order has broken down and the area is effectively
governed by parallel powers openly hostile toward Western cultural
norms.
No Go Zones happen because those in power don’t believe in the
primacy of Western cultural values, and don’t want to insist on those
values being “imposed” on newly arrived immigrants from other cultures.
They selectively celebrate multiculturalism in their own country, even
when those cultures are acting in ways they find abhorrent in their home
town.
Against Western Cultural Cringe
So what does all of this add up to? A call for pride in the West?
Not necessarily. But consider the inversion of pride – shame and
guilt. White guilt is a popular sentiment in the United States and the
West, whereby one is supposed to feel directly responsible for any
crimes committed by or in the name of Western civilization. This is a
patently absurd view. If one is responsible, for example, the trans-Atlantic slave trade, then one is equally responsible for vaccines, toilets and antibiotics.
What we would call for rather than Western cultural chauvinism is,
instead, a call for Westerners to end their cultural cringe against
Western values.
Cultural cringe
is where one feels embarrassed or uncomfortable about their culture,
seeing it as somehow “less than” others or emphasizing its shortcomings
over its achievements. The West as a whole seems to be suffering from
widespread cultural cringe, though it is worth noting that this
sentiment is largely inorganic. Rather than being a natural outgrowth of
prevailing cultural attitudes, it’s instead manufactured by the media
and academia, which incessantly propagandize about the evils of white
men, the nuclear family, Christianity and Western values.
The assault on our cultural institutions is largely successful
because of historical illiteracy. While many Americans are embarrassed
about America’s slaveholding past, few know how limited slave ownership was throughout the country,
the degree to which it was opposed while it still existed, and barely
think about how slavery is an institution extending all the way back to
the dawn of human history, and is thus not a uniquely American invention.
America simply did what the rest of the world did at the time and what
virtually all of the world had done since the beginning of time.
Lacking a proper historical context, it’s easy to convince anyone of anything.
One need not become a braggart about Western culture to combat this.
Indeed, doing so might well be counterproductive. However, one certainly
should refuse to feel guilt about the color of one’s skin or the
broader values of Western civilization. It is important to remember that
the people who seek to weaponize guilt
about historical crimes of the West – which are certainly a matter of
historical record, but by no means exclusive or unique to the West and,
as we have pointed out above, have been aggressively combated by the
West more than anyone else – do so out of a position of bad faith. They
are not seeking to make the world a better place or reflect thoughtfully
on the sum total of the West’s history. They simply seek to weaponize your guilt for their own personal political gain.
It is the West’s insistence on equal treatment and fair play that
makes this so easy for anti-Western leftists. Because, as a culture, we
strive to make men equal before the law, it is easy for us to be guilted
and shamed when we fail to live up to our values. Leftists do two
things when they attack Western culture: First, they say that because we
have not always lived up to our stated values, that we have failed as a
society. But then they commit a rhetorical sleight of hand, declaring
that because of this, our values must be bad, then attempting to
substitute a radical, alien and totalitarian set of values in their
place – the values of radical equality and social leveling.
This is the most important part to remember: virtually none of the
people demanding that you hate yourself and your culture’s values have
anything better to offer in its place. Replacing cultural cringe with an
honest cultural confidence does not require looking down on other
cultures. It simply requires you to acknowledge that, when compared to
all of human history, the West has done a great job of increasing human
freedom and human prosperity, as well as encouraging an overall sense of
fair play.
