You'll Own Nothing and Be Happy... Or Else

Thought for the day: Totalitarians never view themselves as totalitarian.
Utopians believe fervently that what they are forcing upon others is for their own good.
Such is the content of this article.
If you’ve not heard of the World Economic Forum, I’d urge you to pay extremely close attention because they’ve been driving much of the mayhem you’ve experienced this year.
Klaus Schwab, who is the founder of the World Economic Forum, and Thierry Malleret featured an article accompanying the launch of a co-authored book entitled “COVID-19: The Great Reset”.
The following is a rebuttal to Klaus, and all technocrats like him.
Original text in bold. My input is not.
A Rebuttal to Klaus Schwab’s Article on the Covid-19 Crisis
Chris MacIntosh | Capitalist Exploits:
Already, in barely six months, the COVID-19 pandemic has plunged our world in its entirety — and each of us individually — into the most challenging times we’ve faced in generations.Incorrect. The virus is simply a virus, similar to other viruses that humans have overcome throughout our history as a species.Indeed, here are the CDC’s numbers themselves so that we may put things into context.Survival rates by age group:
- 0-19: 99.997%
- 20-49: 99.98%
- 50-69: 99.5%
- 70+: 94.6%
It was Klaus, our governments and institutions that have plunged the world into “the most challenging times we’ve faced”, through their idiotic draconian tyrannical policies that have been forced upon the world with zero room for debate.
Highly credentialed professionals (see the Great Barrington declaration) across the world are simply censored when pointing out the madness.
It is a defining moment — we will be dealing with its fallout for years, and many things will change forever. It has wrought (and will continue to do so) economic disruption of monumental proportions, creating risk and volatility on multiple fronts — political, social, geopolitical — while exacerbating deep concerns about the environment and also extending the reach of technology into our lives.
On this we agree. We will indeed be dealing with the fallout for years. And yes, the economic disruption is of monumental proportions.
Take, for instance, suicides, Klaus, which in Japan are now 8.5X the number of deaths from covid.
At this point those officials still locking down, since we know the virus is nothing more than a bad flu should be summarily fired and brought to justice for crimes against humanity.
At this point it would be worth listening to Dr Roger Hodkinson, the ex-president of the pathology section of the Medical Association and formerly certified by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada as a general pathologist in 1976 and a Royal College Fellow.
Take a look at Dr Roger Hodkinson addressing the Edmonton City Council Community and Public Services Committee meeting on Nov. 13 about the city’s move to extend its face-covering bylaw.

There is utterly unfounded public hysteria driven by the media and politicians, said Dr. Roger Hodkinson, explaining, Masks are utterly useless. There is no evidence base for their effectiveness whatsoever. Paper masks and fabric masks are simply virtue-signaling.
Moving right along to your statement Klaus of “concerns about the environment”.
Is it not time you simply dropped the mask and revealed that yes, this is what it was all about from the get go? Agenda 2030, after all, was conceived before the manufactured pandemic.
One would have thought that after Al Gore’s ridiculous and demonstrably false “Inconvenient Truth”, the junk science behind “anthropogenic global warming” would have deservedly been ridiculed and discarded on the trash heap of history.
But instead it’s been re-birthed as a mask to implementing Communism 3.0. under the guise of “the Great Reset”. We see through you.
No industry or business will avoid the impact of these changes. Millions of companies risk falling behind, and many industries face an uncertain future; a few will thrive.
Those that have thrived are unsurprisingly the very same clutch of folks that are your buddies from Davos.
Enormous corporations that benefit from the tyrannical lockdowns. It comes as no surprise that Bezos’ Amazon, Zuckerberg’s Facebook and Dorsey’s Twitter have all sucked up more power, influence, and market share while SMEs have been squashed by — again — policy and not the virus.
Amazingly you’ve the gall to talk about equality while ensuring all of this takes place. And then there’s your buddy, Bill.
On an individual basis, for many, life as they’ve always known it is unraveling at alarming speed. This said, acute crises favor introspection and foster the potential for transformation.
The only thing we can transform, without unintended consequences, is ourselves. Nature does the rest. This is because the world is complex, far more complex than anyone — certainly you — can imagine.
And in believing “we” (which we know means you and your fellow accomplices complicit in this crime) can transform it implies a belief you’ve a handle on the infinite amount of data points each second that occur in the world and furthermore how each of those data points may react to any change in any other data points.
In short, you’ve the same misguided belief that centralised planning works. It doesn’t.
This “opportunity” is manufactured to amass enormous attention and force feed your Marxist neo-feudal agenda of reshaping the world in a centralised approach.
It is worth noting at this point that EVERY single time mankind has embarked on “reshaping the world” to meet the objectives of a small group of intolerant people it has ended in genocide.
Every. Single. Time.
Systematic ConnectivityA new world could emerge, the contours of which it is incumbent on us to reimagine and redraw.
There you go again with this notion that you and you're out of touch friends know what is required for the rest of us.
The sudden and violent nature of the shock the pandemic is inflicting can make the scale of this challenge seem overwhelming.
Yes, you’re quite correct on the violent shock to society.
As my friend Doug Casey remarked, “Masks, social distancing, lockdowns, and non-gathering are doing immense damage to society at every level—health-wise, socially, and financially. This nonsense is rupturing the social fabric everywhere. That’s extremely dangerous.”
This impression is due in no small measure to the fact that in today’s interdependent and hyper-connected world risks amplify each other: Individual risks or issues harbor the potential to create ricochet effects by provoking others (like unemployment potentially fuelling social unrest and impoverishment triggering involuntary mass migration).“Unemployment potentially fuelling social unrest…”
Really?
“Involuntary mass migration” is all due to policy, especially that of the EU, whether it be to create social justice or creating conflict.
So far, all the trouble you refer to has been created by policy makers and influencers, not the average Joe. And here you are telling us to put our faith in — deep breath — policy makers.
The defining feature of today’s world is systemic connectivity: In such a world, silo-doing and silo-thinking have no place because risks converge. All the macro issues that exert direct and daily impacts on our societies, the global economy, geopolitics, the environment and technology do not evolve in a linear fashion.
If by “systematic connectivity” you mean the organised effort by the WEF, the world’s central banks, and the world’s governments to abandon sovereignty and cater to protecting international interests of a small elite, then sure.
Surely, if you’re against “silo thinking,” censoring dissenting voices via the mainstream media and social media would be something you’d be dead against.In the immortal words of Homer Simpson, “Lord help me, I’m just not that bright.”
They play out as complex adaptive systems, and as such, share a fundamental attribute: susceptibility to matters cascading out of control and in so doing producing extreme consequences that often come as a surprise. COVID-19 has already given us a foretaste of this phenomenon.
Translation: Globalists have implemented policies they do not understand, cannot pay for, and cannot control.
A fake pandemic is now being used as the catalyst to wipe the slate clean and steal all the assets and subjugate the world to full technocratic control.
