Here’s a personal account of how digital ID / central bank digital currencies / social credit systems operate in China.

Central banks and governments are nudging us towards this. We cannot let this happen. Wake up before it’s too late.

Central Bank Digital Currencies are not a conspiracy theory. They are an agenda openly discussed and piloted by many governments around the world. Here’s Rishi Sunak advocating CBDCs when he was Chancellor of the Exchequer.

If you still think that Central Banking Digital Currencies are somehow just a conspiracy theory, watch this speech by IMF deputy managing director and former People’s Bank of China deputy governor, Bo Li:

Central Bank Digital Currencies:
Current status - country by country.

Central Bank Digital Currencies risk becoming a gateway towards social credit systems. This is not a conspiracy theory. It’s already happening - slowly but surely under the radar. Educate your friends and family about #CBDCs before it is too late.

“This is the last step in the total surveillance state.”

@JamesGRickards discussing the potential dangers of central bank digital currencies with myself & @IsabelOakeshott on the @TheSpeakeasyFM podcast.

“The elites want you to live like 12th century peasants, so that they can keep getting richer and richer.”

If you drive an electric vehicle to do your bit to ‘save the planet’, it is more than likely that the vehicle has a battery with cobalt in it.
Over 40,000 child slaves mine the cobalt in horrific conditions in Congo. Electric cars are now the biggest source of cobalt demand.

Lithium-ion batteries are used in electric vehicles. Yet the environmental damage that is created to extract lithium is enormous. But that side of the story doesn’t fit into the net zero narrative.
