Anthony Mueller: The lockdown in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic has accelerated the implementation of long-held plans to establish a new world order. Under the auspices of the World Economic Forum (WEF), global policymakers are advocating for a "Great Reset" with the intent of creating a global technocracy. A consensus has emerged at the annual WEF/Davos meetings that the world needs a revolution, and that reforms have taken too long. The members of the WEF envision a profound upheaval at short notice. The change must be so swift and dramatic that those who recognize that a revolution is happening do not have the time to mobilize against it. Earlier totalitarian regimes needed mass executions and concentration camps to maintain their power. Now, with the help of new technologies, dissenters can easily be identified and marginalized. The nonconformists will be silenced by disqualifying divergent opinions as morally despicable. The 2020 lockdowns offer a preview of how this system works. The lockdown worked as if it had been orchestrated. As if following a single command, the leaders of big and small nations implemented almost identical measures. Not only did many governments act in unison, they also applied these measures with little regard for the consequences of a global lockdown. Months of economic standstill have destroyed the economic basis of millions of families. Together with social distancing, the lockdown has produced a mass of people unable to care for themselves. First, governments destroyed the livelihood, then the politicians showed up as the savior. The lockdown and its consequences have brought a foretaste what is to come: a permanent state of fear, strict behavioral control, massive loss of jobs, and growing dependence on the state. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
