Everyone's confused about the Great Reset. Why is the 1% insisting on insect diets, smart meters and digital ID/currency? Why were they so adamant on emergency shots for the most prosperous societies? Most of us know things are bad, but very few can put all pieces together. /1
Plenty of people know that key resources involved in running modern civilisation are strictly finite. But ask yourself why almost none of them connect the emergence of a broad emissions-reducing, low-consumption agenda directly to the finite resources they already know about. /2
Quite simply, because the climate/environmental narrative has over decades become supremely pervasive, and resources-aware people are overwhelmingly not into conspiracy theory.
They are forced to believe in coincidence: that peak resources coincide with climate emergency. /3
And they would never buy that the opening gambit of the Great Reset, a theatrical novel virus, would enable future justifications for shutting down economic activity in cities or regions.
It ensured that humanity would be overwhelmingly convinced of future pandemic potential. /4
50 years ago, those at the top of the power pyramid knew that an energy crunch would occur with billions more aspirational eaters at the table.
Anyone who didn't believe the climate story had to be persuaded that resource limits were also a hoax. Or they'd see that 2+2=4... /5
This was relatively simple. First, alongside the birth of the environmental movement, given life by the UN, shady-named groups such as the Club of Rome and Sierra Club began to voice sustainability concerns.
However, unlike climate, talk of resources would soon be phased out. /6
It was clearly not astroturfed when the Peak Oil movement gained considerable steam in the 2000s, with corporate media paying almost zero attention.
At that point, decline of discoveries was indisputable. But an unexpected unconventional oil boom killed off the PO movement. /7
Recent oil discoveries amount to only weeks/months of global demand. "Deeper" is the only way for the industry, meaning a continuing decline in return on energy invested.
Similarly, mining of minerals is also facing steeply diminishing returns. And so Net Zero reveals itself. /8
The only way for the 1% to have their miracle resource cake, eat it, then expand their power as 8+ billion humans either die or eat bugs, is obvious:
Take credit for saving the planet and all benefits deriving from deindustrialisation. Generate endless division + distraction. /9
Currently, the media is freely citing "peak oil demand" which perfectly muddies the water and ensures web searches for "peak oil" don't turn up anything useful.
Future humans will think we voluntarily gave up oil & opted for smaller families. Many truths are being concealed. /10
This real-world, app-based model of "viral" spread was generated in 2018 as part of BBC efforts to prepare the intellectual & popular ground for control measures to be proposed in early 2020.
Models can say almost anything you want - or what the people funding it might want. /11
Unsurprisingly, the BBC is very keen to brand conspiracy "trolls" as violent, hateful and right-wing.
"This conspiracy ... began with false allegations about 5G [and] coronavirus." But who seeded that 5G nonsense? And was it also intended to quell concerns over 5G roll-out? /12
The Green Evangelicals (A) vs. the Fossil Dinosaurs (B).
A: Younger, on-narrative, supporters of control grid.
B: Older, conspiracy theorists, resisting control grid.
Roughly half of society vs. the other half, all unprepared for scarcity and destined to submit to the grid. /13
Every means of inconveniencing drivers (and there are many) is part of the same agenda: to encourage people to give up their ICE and EV cars.
With so many narratives at play - safety, congestion, cycling, climate & community - the goal of reducing consumption is concealed. /14
Like clockwork, the Dino resistance falls into the trap of identifying the basic agenda of control but entirely missing the crucial point.
It is not Marxists but the capitalist elite who see no option other than to power down the economy before scarcity forces the issue. /15
Leaders may step back but never reverse course. They take orders from capitalist masters whose fathers planned for this critical period 50 years ago.
The central goal is to maintain sufficient support for sustained economic decline, while keeping the Dinos equally ignorant. /16
What happened to the Club of Rome? In 2023, they are talking much less about resources, and much more about climate, degrowth and sustainability.
Their original concern for finite natural resources has been massively diluted, with imminent limits to growth entirely ignored. /17
If you can comprehend how neither lab scientists nor the natural world can produce a virus that endangers the planet for years, then you can recognise that the fabrication of the entire health emergency is as dangerous a truth as the masking of the entire resource emergency. /18
The story is simple. It was most profitable to grow at almost any cost. The lowest-hanging oil and minerals were extracted first. We built hydrocarbon-based infrastructure for 8 billion humans.
Current prosperity cannot be maintained with an economy based on anything else. /19
As the term "Great Reset" implies, and is no doubt left unsaid in Schwab's book, all national economies are what need to be reset.
In the New World Order, the most developed nations have to fall the farthest. This excludes the 1%, who will have their well-supplied enclaves. /20
For your average Westerner, that means doing a lot less, usually within 15 minutes of home.
"It helped that the pandemic forced me to change my routines. I worked from home. I socialised by Zoom. My world became smaller. That drive to the shops? I realised I could walk it." /21
