THE GREAT RESET: IS DEMOCRACY (worldwide) IN DANGER?
GLOBAL PREDATORS – SEGMENT 12

May 9, 2023

Dear Friends and Family,

There is no question the World Economic Forum has impacted the societies of the Western world. Hopefully, this series has provided a sufficient pro and con analysis on the major aspects of their Great Reset ideology – Modern Monetary Theory, Stakeholder Capitalism, Digital Governance, Globalism, and Climate Change – for you the form an opinion on your support.
This segment is to provide you with information on the institutions and people behind the Great Reset, so you have knowledge on which leadership to follow.  In the literature they are termed – “Global Predators.”

Items that might pique your interests include:
  1. The Profile of a Global Predator
  2. Provocative Statements like:
    • Corporate America no longer exists, it is now Corporate World.
    • Diversity cannot be an American goal.
    • America is becoming a one-party totalitarian state.
    • As soon as America is weak enough the Chinese Communist Party will take over the world, not as a government, but as the Communist Chinese Empire.
    • America is the only hope we have for the future freedom of the world.
You will also be interested in the listing of global predators identified by two authors by individual name or institution.

Happy Learning,
Harley


THE GREAT RESET: is DEMOCRACY (worldwide) in DANGER?
GLOBAL PREDATORS – EXCERPTS: SEGMENT 12

WHO ARE THE GLOBAL PREDATORS? The global predators are an international movement of rich and powerful entities that are pushing us toward more top-down government with the accumulation of increasing power and wealth among powerful individuals and groups commonly defined as globalists or the elite. They claim to represent humanity when instead they represent their own voracious appetites for wealth, self-aggrandizement, and power. Some of them are well-known individuals like Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates; some of them are powerful agencies like the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the various National Institutes of Health (NIH), the CDC, and the World Health Organization (WHO). The non-government groups of banks, corporations, industries, and philanthropic organizations often closely align themselves with big governments, and to a surprising extent with China and the Chinese Communist Party.

A great deal of debate has occurred concerning nationalism versus globalism, mostly advocating and defending globalist principles. As a Forbes article in 2017 stated, “Nationalism is a dirty word for most globalists.” Among “globalist” political leaders, Forbes lists President Barack Obama, French President Emmanuel Macron, former Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and some Arab “princelings.”

It is definitely not the smarts of an “elite” who will give us progress. Elites have dominated the world since the dawn of civilization in the form of brutal leaders who, over the centuries, morphed into princes, kings, dictators, and presidents for life. Due to the lack of freedom, human progress was slow, if at all, during most of human history. Unfortunately, globalist corporations have become predators who, like the Chinese Communist Party, stifle or exploit “freedom” rather than promote it.
​
Global capitalism has become predatory because it has rejected promoting the liberty of the people and the nations of the world. Instead, global capitalism uses governments to force itself on individuals, communities, and nations around the world. The takeover of governments is what we are now witnessing with such intensity during COVID-19, placing the people of the world at the mercy of Big Tech, Big Pharma, Big Media, and a host of varied and other competing Bigs.  

There is a surprising amount of agreement and considerable discussion about the rise of globalism, usually conceived of as individuals and institutions of wealth and power whose ambitions are tied to an international political and economic strategies benefitting “them” rather than the rest of us. Less understood is the degree to which the globalists know no national boundaries or party affiliations and how little solid values they have beyond the central motive of predatory capitalism or predatory Marxism. Many, like Michael Bloomberg, Bill Gates, and Anthony Fauci, are Americans by origin but seem to lack any identification with America and with its founding principles of individual freedom and political liberty. Not too many of them seem faith based. Nearly all, including Bill Gates, are also supporting extremely progressive agendas similar to Biden and Kerry, and nearly all supported Biden’s campaign for president.

THE THREAT OF AMERICA: Almost anything that strengthens America is a potential threat to globalism. Klaus Schwab has declared that globalism is incompatible with patriotic democracies. Schwab makes this telling observation: “the three notions of economic globalism, political democracy, and the nation state (think patriotism). Schwab is right. The citizens of a patriotic democratic republic would never willingly and knowingly submit to governance by global predators.  Schwab’s convictions about the incompatibility between a democratic nation state and globalism by itself explains the universal globalist enmity toward America as the most powerful democratic republic and the beacon of liberty. America was and remains the great impediment to globalist ambitions whether they are held by Fauci, Gates, Bloomberg, and Schwab, or the Chinese Communist Party.

THE GREAT RESET and ITS UNITED NATION ORIGINS: In the year 2020, the Great Reset went from a “conspiracy theory” -- a figment of the paranoid imagination of right-wing kooks – to the officially proclaimed national policy of the United States of America under President Joe Biden and his Climate Envoy John Kerry.

Much of the Great Reset originated with the United Nations 41-page pledge titled “Transforming Our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.” It was unanimously adopted by the UN General Assembly on September 25, 2011, during the Obama administration. It was then unanimously adopted with no abstentions on December 21, 2011, by the United Nations Security Council. It is a mammoth wish list of nearly infinite refrain on an idealistic adolescent’s dream for a better world.  It begins with the following promise to humanity.
​This Agenda is a plan of action for people, planet and prosperity. It also seeks to strengthen universal peace in larger freedom. We recognize that eradicating poverty in all its forms and dimensions, including extreme poverty, is the greatest challenge and an indispensable requirement for sustainable development. All countries and all stakeholders, acting in collaborative partnership, will implement this plan. We are resolved to free the human race from the tyranny of poverty and want to heal and secure our planet. We are determined to take the bold and transformative steps which are urgently needed to shift the world on to a sustainable and resilient path. As we embark on this collective journey, we pledge that no one will be left behind.
Notice the key reference to “stakeholders” who will “implement this plan.” One imagines or hopes the “stakeholders” are the people of the world and their truly democratic and freedom-loving representatives. Instead, “stakeholders” will turn out to be synonymous with “assorted global predators.”

With Joe Biden installed as President, he is already shifting government policy back toward globalism and away from America First. He has weakened the borders and resumed policies that will flood America with illegal immigrants. He has made overtures to China and restored Fauci’s collaboration with and financing of the Wuhan Institute. 

THE GLOBAL PREDATOR PROFILE: The global predators are wealthy powerful people or institutions who surprisingly often have eight characteristics. They are apparent in their communications and behavior.
  1. If American, they are not patriotic but instead are critical of America and its power.
  2. They do not mention or write about principles of personal liberty and political liberty as primary values.
  3. They oppose democratic republics and prefer authoritarian or totalitarian governments.
  4. They support open borders worldwide and especially in America.
  5. Their policies enhance the wealthy and drain or destroy the poor, the working class, and middle and upper-middle class. The result is a growing gap between the very, very rich and the rest of humanity.
  6. In a surprising fashion, they consistently have large, flourishing financial investments in China and want to increase them without moral or political restraints. They apologize for, support, or look the other way in regard to the policies of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), even when these policies harm the American people.
  7. They appear driven by a combination of insatiable needs for wealth, self-aggrandizement, and power over others.
  8. They feel elite, superior, or above the vast majority of people.

THE GREAT RESET: 
The Great Reset is based on an explicit model of top-down control by leaders who act utterly without regard for human liberty or democratic political processes. It may seem an exaggeration that educated people, including Americans, would plan for us with utter disregard for our personal freedom and liberty. It has also been difficult for us to accept, but this is how those who seek a new governance of the world think and feel. Otherwise, they would feel rationally and morally compelled to extend liberty throughout the world rather than to impose their will upon it. The COVID-19 pandemic has provided a unique opportunity for predatory globalists to demand a rethinking and re-doing of the world’s governance. To a shocking degree, their operating principles reflect the notion that American patriotism, freedoms, and democracy are bad, yet Chinese, top-down control and conformity are good. They are, in fact, making fortunes doing business with China to the great disadvantage of the people of America and the world. Worldwide, the middle and working classes and the poor have been most injured by globalists. Predatory globalists literally zap life out of them in the pursuit of wealth, self-aggrandizement, and power.

GLOBALISM AND CHINA: What the globalists fail to see is that China’s voraciousness is not like other governments of the world, except perhaps for those countries ruled by Muslim Jihadists, who will probably be no match for the Chinese Communist Party. China, with the help of the globalist community is near to supplanting America as the nation in the world with the strongest economy, the most powerful military, the most sophisticated military technology to include biowarfare, the greatest Third World influence, and the most deeply committed expansionist ideology. The risk is not a World Government like the UN. As soon as America is weak enough, the Chinese Communist Party will take over the world, not as a government, but as the Communist Chinese Empire.

THE WAR AGAINST AMERICA: Corporate America no longer exists; it is now the Corporate World. All or nearly all, large American companies have become global predators with little to no patriotic ties to America and no commitment to advancing or protecting the free enterprise system. Genuine free enterprise does not exist in global businesses. All those many corporations participating in and supporting conferences by Klaus Schwab and Michael Bloomberg are aligning themselves with China, recoupling at the expense of America and freedom. The only genuine free-enterprise models remaining in the world are probably relatively small business owners – the kind or people who invest their hearts, labor, and life savings in local companies, shops, or restaurants.

AMERICA IS BECOMING A ONE-PARTY TOTALITARIAN STATE: A major lesson we have learned from the events of 2020 is that America is extremely vulnerable to a leftwing totalitarian takeover and that it is already well along the way. The public health policies implemented through COVID-19 have conditioned Americans to become docile and intimidated to a degree that surprised and saddened all of us who love America and freedom. Desperate progressives, the Democratic Party, and the globalists – mostly all the same predators – have decided to turn America into a one-party state.

SHARED VALUES TRANSCEND DIVERSITY: Diversity cannot be an American goal or the goal of any successful society. Everywhere in the world, diversity exists and has led to severe conflicts that made people flee to America. American has thrived because we have held values in common that equal or come ahead of our diverse backgrounds and interests. The “melting pot” concept is not a mirage or a fool’s dream; it is the reality that has made America great. America’s diversity has always been secondary to its shared values, and when that comes to an end, we will sink into anarchy and despair. We will become easy pickings for the global predators who hate our individuality and our ability to join together when our liberty is threatened.

All totalitarian institutions seek to sow distrust of each other among the people so that they will lack the strength and the will to resist. COVID-19 policies and practices have been used as the great sower of distrust among people. It has been done purposely to render us more docile and controllable, more obedient to arbitrary authority and to exploitation.

THE NEVER-ENDING THREATS: Beyond this, the globalists are busily reinventing global warming as the real emergency to justify top-down government control over us, and failing to make that work, they will find or create other threats to justify keeping us in our present state of docility and semi-confinement.   

WE ARE THE HOPE OF THE WORLD: Our nation must not give up its patriotism and principles of liberty, for our own sake and humanity, we must prevail. This is not to say America is perfect, but it is to say that our ideals are the best ever conceived and built into a nation’s founding and laws. Most importantly, America is the only hope we have for the future freedom of the world.

SOME OF THE INDIVIDUAL AND INSTITUTIONAL GLOBALISTS
BIG Government: Global capitalism has become predatory because it has rejected promoting the liberty of the people and the nations of the world. Instead, global capitalism used government to force itself on individuals, communities, and nations about the world.

BIG Tech: The major media, the tech industry (including Amazon), and the social media (including Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Google, and You Tube) in the U.S. and throughout the world are predatory globalists. The bigger and more unscrupulous the business, the more it can dominate the government as well, not only its regulators, but also the entire Congress and the presidency.

BIG Pharma: I have investigated drug companies and testified against them as a part of many lawsuits in which I have been a medical and psychiatric expert. I found every drug company I investigated to be ruthlessly devoted to hiding the harms of their drugs to exaggerating their good effects, controlling what was published in the scientific journals, and crushing their critics.

Major Universities: The current worldwide system of higher education is also a partner in these predatory activities, and we find many universities have shockingly deep financial and research ties to the Chinese Communist Party.

George Soros: George Soros is a man who hates America and hates the free enterprise system, while masquerading as an idealistic progressive. In January 2020, The Washington Times described his behavior in headline, “George Soros, 89, is still on a quest to destroy America.”

Bill Gates: Gates is an advocate for big government interventions and partnerships with industry, making him the archetype of the globalist. Gates himself has been interviewed multiple times about the “new normal.” For globalists, COVID-19, with its government and industry partnerships, is a source of great wealth and power. Their activities place great pressure on America to move toward a top-down management and increased authoritarianism and ultimately totalitarianism, all in the service of internationalists seeking more wealth, self-aggrandizement, and power.

Anthony Fauci: Anthony Fauci who works closely with Bill Gates on his vaccine development and marketing, has spoken and testified about the “new normal” which he sees in part dependent on a successful vaccine. Fauci’s progressive globalism was astonishingly expressed at the conclusion of a recent “scientific” publication in which he blames COVID-19 on humankind and calls for sweeping changes which would require the top-down imposition of global totalitarianism.

John Kerry:  Kerry threw his support for the Great Reset, as U.S. Policy. Explaining that the United States of America is currently ‘gridlocked,’” Kerry said, “This is a big moment. The World Economic Forum – the CEO capacity of the Forum – is really going to have to play a front-and-center role in refining the Great Reset to deal with climate change and inequity – all of which is being laid bare as a consequence of COVID-19.” This is how the global predators – including President Biden and Czar Kerry at the top in American politics – see the usefulness of COVID-19 public health policies. The pandemic is here to condition us to accept “dramatic change” and “big visions.” What we see as a tragedy in COVID-19, they see as a “golden” opportunity for themselves.

Joe Biden: In 2013, under the Obama-Biden administration, the U.S. regulator, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Chinese regulators. The MOU gave Chinese companies improved access to U.S. capital markets without complying with the same disclosures required of U.S. companies. The Obama administration’s archives showed that the agreement resulted from multiple meetings between Vice President Biden and Chinese leaders. As a result of this concession, American investors through their pension funds, have been unknowingly transferring wealth from the U.S. to Chinese entities that don’t comply with U.S. laws. Some of these companies are sanctioned by the U.S. government as they’re involved in the CCP’s military, espionage and human rights abuses.

Larry Fink: As Washington unleashed bailouts amid the financial crisis in the fall of 2008, the government took control of vast portfolios of bonds and other securities. Someone would have to manage all these investments. Larry Fink got the job. Given the unrivaled pile of money that Fink managed, the investments he controlled supplied him with votes at shareholders meetings. He threatened to use his power to unleash consequences on CEOs who failed to publish plans that properly addressed the risks of climate change. (e.g., ESG ratings). “We will be increasingly disposed to vote against management and board directors when companies are not making sufficient progress,” Fink wrote. At Blackrock, Fink had taken the theoretical principles discussed at Davos and injected them into the boardrooms of publicly traded corporations -- economic inequality, climate change, and other concerns were not only legitimate of interest for a business, but imperatives for companies fully grappling with modern hazards (e.g., stakeholder capitalism).
