Spokespersons for @wef say “The Great Reset,” eating insects instead of meat, and “You’ll own nothing and be happy” are conspiracy theories, but they’re not. In fact, all of them originated @Davos and from WEF’s own website. But now, WEF is deleting them.

public.substack.com/p/davos-is-a-g…
WEF Managing Director Adrian Monck last August claimed the “You’ll own nothing and be happy” meme “started life as a screenshot… by an anonymous anti-semitic account on the image board 4chan,” but that was a lie. It started its life as this WEF article, now deleted.
It’s true that @wef did not delete the creepy video it made with now-infamous “Own nothing” guy, but it did delete the web page it linked to.
If WEF is all about transparency, why does it keep deleting web pages? Why do it’s leaders gas-light the public about its agenda?
And why, if we must all disclose more of our personal financial information, won’t WEF disclose the most basic financial information about itself?
The @AP says “the popular claim that [WEF] wants people to replace meat with bugs is a distorted reference to an article once published on the organization’s website,” but it’s not a single article, it’s many, and many videos, too. And replacing meat is the main reason given.
This @AP “debunking” is thus itself a form of misinformation about @wef
Part of the reason you can’t trust anything the media say about WEF is because WEF has, literally, bought them off with “partnerships”

WEF is a propaganda platform for global elites and corporate media to “transition” us to a low-energy (poorer) world

The World Economic Forum, governments around the world, and the mainstream news media are sounding the alarm in Davos about crazy-sounding, right-wing conspiracy theories. And yet, a shocking number of them have recently turned out to be true.

public.substack.com/p/why-a-shocki…
It's easy to see why people make fun of conspiracy theories. Most are wrong. Others are prima facie silly. After all, the boring truth is that people and institutions are terrible at keeping secrets.
And yet, a shocking number of crazy-sounding right-wing conspiracy theories have, recently, turned out to be true:

The World Economic Forum's Davos summit starts tomorrow. Its founder, Klaus Schwab, is one of the most influential men alive. He even participated in the G-20 summit of world leaders last November.

Why is that? And who, exactly, is Klaus Schwab?

public.substack.com/p/davos-is-a-g…
The World Economic Forum is fighting back against those who say it and its founder are seeking global domination through a “great reset” aimed at stripping the masses of their private property, de-industrializing the economy, and making everybody eat bugs.
“‘Own nothing, be happy’ — you might have heard the phrase,” wrote a WEF spokesperson last August. “It started life as a screenshot, culled from the Internet by an anonymous anti-semitic account on the image board 4chan. ‘Own nothing, be happy – The Jew World Order 2030’..."

Journalists rushed to report that Trump’s handling of classified documents was far worse than Biden’s. Now that that they have egg on their faces, they’re insisting that their reporting was nuanced. From knee-jerk partisan propaganda to gas-lighting without taking a breath.
Having “reported” that Trump had committed some terrible crime, the discovery that Biden had done the same thing gave “reporters” a serious case of cognitive dissonance. To relieve the stress, they wrote factually incorrect “explainers” to spin away the differences.
Two-thirds of reporters say news media companies do a “very or somewhat good job” reporting the news.

But just 29% of U.S. adults say they have “a fair amount of trust” in journalists: 44% have “little to none”

At first they said: Biden fessed up right away; he only had a few Top Secret documents; the VP can declassify them.

Now they admit: we don’t know how many Top Secret documents he had; there’s no evidence he ever declassified them; and he didn’t fess up until he was caught.
Over the last week, journalists at all of the major news outlets wrote explainers claiming that the evidence definitively proved that Trump’s alleged crimes were gargantuan whereas whatever Biden had done was probably just a gigantic misunderstanding. Now they are backpedaling.
It turns out that Biden knew about the mishandled documents as early as November 2, 2022, a week before the election, and kept it secret until a news organization forced the Biden Administration to fess up.

The article confirms Biden:
- spoke to Hunter about & met Burisma liason at dinner;
- met Hunter's business partners in China;
- wrote to son's business partner on WH letterhead;
- met regularly with Hunter's business manager who more than once "would pay a bill for VP Biden."
All of that, and yet President @JoeBiden is apparently sticking with his claim that he never spoke to Hunter about his foreign business dealings

The @nytimes authors @adamentous @nytmike @ktbenner claim that "a close look at his story shows that it differs in important ways from the narrative promoted by Republicans," but their own story confirms unethical & perhaps illegal conduct.

Many think social media companies only censored "vaccine misinformation." But a recently-released email shows Facebook reassuring the White House that they were censoring "often-true content” that "does not contain actionable misinformation" but was "discouraging vaccines." Image
What's more, said the Facebook executive, "We'll remove these Groups, Pages, and Accounts when they are disproportionately promoting this sensationalized content. More on this front as we proceed to implement."
