There’s too much happening to deal with at much length, so this will be somewhat brief as far as much commentary goes.
Last night—if you haven’t seen this yet—Tucker Carlson did a segment with Dutch political philosopher Eva Vlaardingerbroek. Tucker sets Vlaardingerbroek’s comments up well, with commentary on the massive Euro protests against the mandates that those who get their news from non-MSM sources will be aware of. Then Vlaardingerbroek steps in and explains the threat to humanity:
Sundance offers extended commentary on the threat that Vlaardingerbroek describes. Again, the need is to “create friction” to slow these monsters down, and fortunately the US appears to be the epicenter for that resistance—hard as that sometimes is to believe.
Next, commenter Cosmo T Kat linked a fascinating article by Alistair Crooke: The Double Helix of Entwined Pandemic and Economic Strategy—the connection to the above should be immediately apparent. This is a long but very readable article, and it focuses attention on the epicenter of the Great Reset: our financial overlords. Crooke is describing the plan for our future, that was never fully explained to us and that we never voted on—but here we are in that future. Think back to when we were told that the US would transform to an “information economy” and we’d all be better off. Well, we got rid of the good jobs and ordinary people have been left scrambling to cover their existential insecurity. But it worked well for our overlords—bailout after bailout.
What follows should flow easily from the above, from Vlaardingerbroek’s explanation:
The corollary to the collapse of the technocratic initiative to liquify the over-leveraged economy might well be recession, Alastair Crooke writes.
Three years ago, I said to an American Professor from the US Army War College in Washington, in respect to the campaign to return American lost Blue Collar jobs to Asia, that these jobs would never return. They were gone for good.
He retorted that that was precisely so, but I was missing the point, he said. America did not expect, or want, the majority of those humdrum manufacturing jobs back. They should stay in Asia. The Élites, he said, wanted only the commanding heights of Tech. They wanted the intellectual property, the protocols, the metrics, the regulatory framework that would allow America to define and expand across the next two decades of global technological evolution.
The real dilemma however, he said was, “What is to be done with the 20% of the American workforce that would be no longer needed: that was no longer necessary to the functioning of a tech-led US economy?”
In fact, what the Professor said was but one facet of a fundamental economic dilemma. From the seventies and eighties onwards, US corporations were busy offshoring their labour costs to Asia. Partly, this was to cut costs and increase profitability (which it did) — but it also represented something deeper.
From the outset, the US has been an expansionary empire ever digesting new lands, new peoples, and their human and material resources. Forward motion, the continuous military, commercial, and cultural expansion became the lifeblood of Wall Street and of its foreign polity. For, absent this relentless expansion, the civic bonds of American unity fall into question. An America not in motion is not America. This forms the very essence of US leitkultur.
Yet it only added further to the dilemma highlighted by my friend above. The expansion was accompanied by a flood of Wall Street credit expansion across the globe. The debt burden exploded, and has become top heavy, balancing unsteadily on a pinhead of genuine underlying collateral.
...
So, here we have the second dilemma: Whilst the structural shrinking of the work-based economy inflates the financial sector, the latter’s complex volatility can only be contained through a logic of perpetual monetary doping (perpetual liquidity injections), justified by global emergencies, requiring ever greater stimulus.
...
And the Pandemic, of course, justifies the monetary stimulus, whilst the follow-on climate ‘health’ emergency is prepared in order to legitimise further debt expansion, for the future.
Financial analyst Mauro Bottarelli summarised the logic of this as follows: “A state of semi-permanent health emergency is preferable to a vertical market crash that would turn the memory of 2008 into a walk in the park.”
Professor of Critical Theory and Italian at Cardiff University, Fabio Vighi, has noted too the “Incurability” of what he calls “the Central Banker’s Long-Covid” condition” — that the injection of such a huge monetary stimulus as we have seen, was only possible by turning the engine of Main Street ‘off’, as such a cascade of liquidity ($6 Trillion) could not be allowed to flow willy-nilly into the Main Street economy (in the view of the Central Bankers), as this would cause an inflationary tsunami à la Weimar Republic. Rather, its’ main thrust has served to further inflate the virtual world of ever more complex financial instruments.
...
At the heart of the predicament for those who run the system is that, should they to lose control of liquidity creation – either as a result of interest rate rises, or from increasing political dissent – the ensuing recession would take-down the entire socio-economic fabric below.
And any severe recession would likely wreak havoc on the western political leadership, too.
They have opted therefore instead, to sacrifice the democratic framework, in order to roll out a monetary regime rooted in a cult of corporate-owned science & technology, media propaganda, and disaster narratives – as the means to progress towards a technocratic ‘aristocratic’ takeover over the heads of the people. (Yes, in certain ‘circles’, it is thought of as a newly rising aristocracy of money).
...
... Those who challenge it are labelled “conspiracy theorists,” “anti-vaxxers,” “Covid deniers,” “extremists,” etc. And, thus the pathologized New Normal narrative also pathologizes its political opponents: stripping them of all political legitimacy. The aim obviously, is their forced compliance. Macron made that plain.
... Covid was the ideal Trojan horse for this breakthrough. A global system of digital identification based on blockchain technology has long been planned by the ID2020 Alliance, backed by such giants as Accenture, Microsoft, the Rockefeller Foundation, MasterCard, IBM, Facebook, and Bill Gates’ ubiquitous GAVI. From here, the transition to monetary control is likely to be relatively smooth. CBDCs would allow central bankers not only to track every transaction, but especially to turn off access to liquidity, for any reason deemed legitimate.
The Achilles’ heel to all this however, is the evidence of genuine popular resistance to the suppression by the tech platforms of all dissenting opinion (however well-qualified its source); by the refusal to allow people informed choice about their medical treatment; and by arbitrary restrictions that may involve loss of livelihood being imposed by decree, and underpinned by emergency laws, restricting popular protest.

Finally, I got this next link from Hemsley Hawes. It’s to a video presentation by Catherine Fitts, whom I’ve featured in the past. Sadly I can’t embed from this video platform so all I can do is link: SHARE THIS WHILE YOU CAN. I’ve already shared Fitts’ concept of “creating friction”. You’ve seen the concept referred to above—just not in those words. This is a 45 minute video and is dense in parts but overall pretty good to follow. Here’s a quote from the end, where Fitts is engaging in some broad brush strokes:
We're living in a world where there are two visions, and the top 1% have a vision of us as a natural resource. And we have a vision--I have a vision--of us as individuals with sovereign rights under Divine--that come to us by Divine authority. So this is really a question of, Do we live in a world defined by Divine intelligence, or do we live in a world defined by hyper-materialism? They're two extraordinarily different visions. What I would say is that human will and free will is an impulse under the guidance of Divine intelligence. It's not simply a materialistic impulse. We're talking about a society where either we all have the ability to exercise our natural potential versus a few people having the ability to exercise their potential, and they can squeeze us to give themselves more benefit and and more juice.
Those are the ideas she’s leading up to. Keep that in mind if you struggle with the earlier portions, because what Fitts sketches out—the Trans-Humanist agenda of the Great Reset as implemented by the Global Central Banking system—is what others have also described. Again, simplistic Libertarianism will not get us out of this crisis. We need to awaken ourselves and see past the Liberal order to the Divine order of human nature.
Just read CJ Hopkins latest stack and my spidey senses about who he refers to as "Globocap" (Schwab/Gates/et. al.) believes that it's over, but not quite yet...
