Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Reset

18 When that year was ended, they came unto him the second year, and said unto him, We will not hide it from my lord, how that our money is spent; my lord also hath our herds of cattle; there is not ought left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands:

19 Wherefore shall we die before thine eyes, both we and our land? buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants unto Pharaoh: and give us seed, that we may live, and not die, that the land be not desolate.

20 And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine prevailed over them: so the land became Pharaoh's.

                                                            Genesis 47:18-20

Hello, I’m rich and I’m here to help you.

The World Economic Forum, subtitled without irony, The International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation, is one of many think tanks that meet annually to discuss the management of the Commons and us commoners who live there and how best to exploit them. This one was founded in 1971 by Klaus Schwab, a mechanical engineer, academic, and economist with numerous accolades to his name and books on Amazon. I assume he was sincere.

The WEF is generally known as that group that meets in Davos, Switzerland every January and includes members like Bill Gates, Prince Charles, Henry Kissinger, and numerous other politicians, pundits, and pirates of industry. Dr. Schwab’s latest book is titled, The Fourth Industrial Revolution, and deals with innovations involving AI, robotics, nanotechnology, and 3D printed organs for transplant. The description of his book includes the following: “He outlines the key technologies driving this revolution…” and “…offers bold ideas on how to harness these changes and shape a better future—one in which technology empowers people rather than replaces them.”

Another Utopia, in other words. People love to make up new words for old atrocities. Take the following acrobatics in doublespeak:

The Great Reset – Feudalism
You Will Own Nothing – Serfdom
The Forth Industrial Revolution - Monopoly
Transhumanism - Dehumanization
Innovation Zone – Company Town
Crypto Currency – Company Scrip
Corporate Socialism – Fascism
Woke – Indoctrination
Virtue Signal – Self Righteousness
Cancel – Memory Hole
World Government – New World Order
Modern Monetary Theory – Monopoly Money

What are the precepts of this never before seen or imagined Newtopia?

Fourth Industrial Revolution

AI will control the means of production. I wonder if the capitalists realize that they have finally outsourced themselves? There is also another niggling point here, as outlined in E.M. Foster’s, 1909 short story, The Machine Stops. What happens when everything becomes too complex and just stops working? And who, exactly, is going to shovel the coal into the boilers under our grand new Metropolis? The electricity to run MS-Overlord has to come from somewhere.

Carbon Credits, Alternate Energy

The world will run on perpetual motion machines.

CommonPass Health Passport

Your papers, please? I have no problem with proper identification before you can do anything like drive a car or vote in your local rigged election. But as usual the devil is in the artificial details. Who will administer this new ID system? Governments? International organizations under the auspices of the UN? Private consortiums? Underwriters Laboratory? The Reset Mafia? The WEF itself?

This one is really the meat of the monstrosity. Recentering means taking the lifestyles we have been farm raised on like foie gras geese and throwing them out the window. Consumerism, ownership, pride of nation or place, taking square dance lessons, having a big house or an expensive car, owning anything for that matter. Since you don’t own anything you won’t have any money. One by one, as green technology, organic cities, fairy dust economy, and faux food consume our lives, all of which have become absolutely free by some new law of economics, our lives will become monetarily neutral, unisex, uniformed, and unrecognizable. Everything must go.

Instead of having a car which sits in your garage most of the time, you will go to the street in front of your Soviet era apartment building in your grey overalls and whistle. One will self-drive speedily to your side and whisk you away to your weekly bund meeting in time for the two minute hate. Corporations like the highly polluting cement and steel industries will have a Come to Gretta moment and adopt lower carbon techniques. Let them eat plastic!

According to the WEF’s website, we are facing a series of crises. These are Health, Economic/Trade, Social unrest, and Leadership (Not WEF leadership. Two legs bad… That’s it. Don’t expect anything more.)

On the WEF’s website, https://www.weforum.org/great-reset:

“As we enter a unique window of opportunity to shape the recovery, this initiative will offer insights to help inform all those determining the future state of global relations, the direction of national economies, the priorities of societies, the nature of business models and the management of a global commons. Drawing from the vision and vast expertise of the leaders engaged across the Forum’s communities, the Great Reset initiative has a set of dimensions to build a new social contract that honours the dignity of every human being.”

I’m not going to address all of the accusations of establishing a New World Order, population control, brain slugs, er, chips, etc., that are readily available on the Conspira-web and are routinely dumped on the Davos Demons. The reality is hilarious enough.

A few years back the WEF posted a video titled, “You’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy.” I would add, “And you’ll shut up about it.” When I first saw this video, I assumed it was a parody of a Saturday Night Live commercial, but the WEF logo appears throughout it and numerous sources attest to the fact that it was, unabashedly, on the WEF website until it was yanked, unceremoniously, for being self-mocking, ludicrously.

Oddly enough, the WEF website still contains the similarly dystopian, “Here's how life could change in my city by the year 2030,” written in 2016 by Ida Auken, clueless parliamentarian of Denmark.

It says much the same thing, just without a glitzy YouTube video of mentally imprisoned people to accompany it. But it does have one thing the other does not. Ms. Auken actually speaks about the unfortunates who chose not to accept the gratuitous generosity of the the Peoples’ Republic of Oligarchic Leftist Eternal Socialists (PROLES) and, instead, live like savages outside the bliss of her imagined city of tomorrow. What, no work camps? Are there no gulags? By the way, Copenhagen already is a beautiful city where the population of bicyclists exceeds the cockroach population, making it a tribute to low carbon, high cardio sustainable cities. Ms. Auken does not mention this.

This sounds eerily like the 1970’s dystopic movie, Zardoz, where the elites have encapsulated themselves in a techno-perfect and eternal bubble where there is no death and dissent is impossible. Primitives outside the bubble have been converted to the worship of a giant stone head with a constipated face. The proletariat-serfs must load it with wheat whenever their great god, Zardoz, comes for a refill. Because gods and governments need to eat, you know. Like the biblical quote above shows, we’ve seen this all before. Please, Sir. May I have some seeds?

Oh, and we’re going to Mars. So we can plant Utopia there too, I assume.
