The Great Reset

[Mythos]

It seems the world economic forum is pushing a semi communist globalist agenda in the next ten years when they damn well know the world is not ready for that. “You will own nothing and be happy”, they basically want the Chinese system where you have social points for food and renting objects, all based on a technocratic system using biometrics to identify individuals.  This means more resources to the top of the pyramid and less for the bottom, even though they might make the ultimate bottom (extreme poverty in stage red locations) less hard, they will scam the overall population more so that ultimately the top will have more than they have now. Why else would the world economic forum, led by the worlds very richest, push this agenda and cloak it in inclusion and climate change control.

It’s just like George Carlin said. Instead of using the enormous wealth of the rich to solve problems the middle class has to pay for the ultimate poor. Personally Im ok with paying high tax, a max of 50% would be ok with me if I was upper middle class. but it just isn’t fair that the very rich get away with this, and then take credit when climate change or better welfare state is achieved when they damn well know the domesticated middle class has paid for everything. I would laugh but it’s true.

@Leo Gura enlighten us a bit with your insight on this please, you know how to cut out the conspiracy bullshit the best way. I don’t believe in any conspiracies myself but this the only one I believe because it is literally laid out in the plain sight; the mainstream media, apart from omitting the fact that the the world cant be ready for true socialism and that this will just make rich more richer, and abolish privacy laws. I’m just following the logic of your wage slavery and political videos here, correct me if my logic is wrong, but I have a very dooming feeling about “The Great Reset”.

I bet the right wing is more of a thing you should be worried about than this. Also, I've been following Walter guys twitter for a while and he seems like a chill progressive dude.

If the world isn't ready, then what are you worried about? Since it won't stick according to you.

I’m worried that the “socialism” they want is only a cover for the real purpose fo the plan, that actually this is a movement of power towards the people with the most amount of money who  also control the technology that they use to further cement their power and lower the power of the overall population.

@Dryas In my opinion the real right wing are the super rich. When talking economically, the only real political question is, the distribution of wealth. Most right wing people really do not care about politics but more about ideals like freedom and individuality, and then nationalism/racism the further right you go. I also value freedom and individuality, but I am not right wing because I realize how hard real freedom is to create. The capitalist oligarch market we have now is not free. Strong government is needed. This delusion of the right wing that freedom is a given, plus their nationalist/racist rhetoric is the only reason the right sucks. Ironic that those delusions are also the only reason the right exists. They are delusions created for survival.

My issue with the great reset is that the middle class pays and not the super rich who have all the power. Do you really think Jeff Bezos, is going to sacrifice any substantial part of his power during this great reset process? Lol. Plus biometrics used by the government is just a disgusting tool. Your very DNA code unique to you taken from you by force and put in a global system controlled bu the government? Thats disgusting to me. But maybe thats just because I’m from a neighbourhood where we used to hustle with anonymous sim cards and other things to hide our identities to get by.

@Mythos I would not worry about it for the same reason I don't worry about apocalypse predictions, they have been made since millennia and none of it has come true till date. Same in 2012, even in 2020 and 2021 people think the world is coming to an end in just a few decades now.

Similar to the end of the world predictions, the Great Reset predictions have also been made since before the 1900s. Every time it was mentioned as it being a question of mere years and decades now. But here we are. References for it can be found in books published then. And now it's on social media and forums. Only the medium has changed.

There is no conspiracy here. The world's top business leaders and politicians will of course collaborate on issues they see facing the future. And of course they will do so from a self-biased perspective to increase the survival of themselves, their friends, their company, and their nation.

This is not anything new. This is how human civilization has been developing for the last 10,000 years.

To be worried or outraged by things like this is silly.

It is greatly exaggerated though. Like flying cars, permanent base on the moon, AI, and heck even automation in some cases.

If you look beyond the hype and look at what the World Economic Forum (which is not some secret convention of evil elites, but a largely Green value based coming together of politicians, intellectuals, business leaders and reporters) is actually suggesting, you might find that it's not as crazy as it's made out to be in that video. 

What they are mostly focusing on in their proposal is something called stakeholder capitalism as opposed to shareholder capitalism (which is prominent in the US). That is not some radical communist China idea, it is already common practice in many European countries. It's actually quite a soft policy; at worst it will do nothing to address the existential threat of climate change or increasing wealth inequality. There's seems to be no reason to believe that it is a step towards some communist credit score dystopia.

The statement "you will own nothing, and you will be happy" is the perfect provocation for anyone with an gram of libertarian inside them. It's not well thought out since that reaction wasn't expected. It refers to working towards a circular economy, which is one great way to reduce carbon footprint and the damages of overconsumption. Collaborative consuption and the sharing economy is already on the rise, this is just about creating incentives to encourage that. There's no reason to believe a democratic goverment is gonna force you to give up your personal diesel car for example, but it might become significantly more expensive (due to the externalities being priced in) to own than to use collaberatively, which is much more efficient and smart in many ways.

I see it as more aspirational. People can dream, can't they?

I know it serves both functions. Similar visioneering tactics are used by founders and business leaders frequently with great results. Including flying cars 

But the fact that it is going to come up in full manifestation before 2030 or anything close is leading him to worry so worthwhile highlighting that it is exaggerated like AI coming up in a couple decades etc. is.
