WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM UPDATE 7: DAVOS
I’m in Davos, & I gotta say, I’m a bit let down. As Bond villain locales go, it’s a bit…ordinary. Indeed, Davos is like any of a number of ski villages you find scattered throughout the Alps & Pyrenees.
The conference itself is like…

…a secular version of the Southern Baptist Convention which, come to think of it, is kinda secular these days, too: people sporting their swag; coffee shops—not that there really are any—full of enthusiasts trying to impress each other with who they are or with whom they…

…are associated; & selfies galore. To be honest, it’s exactly the kind of thing I hate, & that’s before we get to my ideological objections to the WEF.
Oh, if you want to be an insider, it’s “wef,” not W.E.F. On German lips it comes out like the interjection “Humph!”

Now you can impress the globalists at your next soirée: “When I attended the wef,” you’ll say as you swirl wine around in your glass fashionably. (I’m here all day, people, to provide you with these keen cultural insights. Costs you nothing. You’re welcome.)

…comparison works on several levels, & that’s because the wef is a semi-religious experience for attendees.
On the one hand, seeing it in person I immediately realized why the John Kerrys & Gretchen Whitmers & the like want to come here. It’s the Oscars for politicians….

Here they are celebrities. Rock stars. Unpopular at home, they take the global(ist) stage abroad where they are worshipped by wef groupies. They give speeches where attendees pay handsomely ($26,000 as I recall) to hear them & hang on their every word. It’s like a drug …

…to politicians who simply need the constant approbation of a worshipful retinue.
On the other hand, ordinary attendees are here to worship the pantheon of modern secular utopia who they see as luminaries giving hope to humanity.
And, yet, that’s not quite accurate….

These people care little for humanity. Like Dostoevsky wrote, they love man in general, just not individually. “Sustainability” is the buzz word ready on the tongue of every globalist. (Be sure to drop that word at your soirée, too.) Environmental sustainability….

Population sustainability. Resource sustainability.
“It’s 50% bullsh*t,” said one wef attendee to me minutes ago over coffee. & yet, he related to me his conviction that we must reduce the global population. He believes the main bullsh*t article of this secular faith….

These are my first impressions of Davos & the “wef.” It’s their Jerusalem, Mecca, climb to a Tibetan monastery for a religious experience, but with swag & with enough Mercedes’ to make a Saudi prince blush.
More later. A woman wants to talk to me now. Hmm.
Peace out.
