The Great Reset

Do you think a musician can't be a freelance journalist? Arts and journalism are complementary.

Interesting article. I do think being an illegal arms dealer is a black mark against a person's character but no doubt it'll be hand-waved away.

Personally I'm only interested in the accusation that Sulzer AG sold weapons to South Africa illegally, since what someone's father or grandfather did in the War tells us nothing about them. I agree with you there, though it's interesting historical info all the same.

Do you consider Vedmore's inference (from the Hug report and Georg Krieg's analysis) that Sulzer AG manufactured weapons during Schwab's tenure a fabrication or misrepresentation?

In the end, Schwab is a Swiss-German industrialist - not your personal friend. I can't see that you would have any interest in defending him as such.

I have read his book The Great Reset. I disapprove of his sterile, micro-managed technocratic vision for the economy, industry, leisure etc., and disagree with his positive attitude towards transhumanism.

Knowing that someone was an arms dealer is going to influence your opinion of them. It is relevant.

If it isn't damning then why not just say 'Yeah he sold arms to the South Africans. So what?'?

I am 'open' to the conspiracy view of Schwab yes but accept it is only a theory without any proof.

In any case he looks like a shady character in terms of his business past, and someone I would be totally opposed to politically under any circumstances.

Looking through a glass darkly I believe he and others may be acting from bad motives to create what looks to be some kind of surveillance-oriented/ heavily managed state.

Which like others I discern from WEF's public statements, i.e. think-pieces with catchy quotes like "You will own nothing and be happy" which have supposedly been taken up wrong. This would not be historically unique, see e.g. Communist societies.

Since, as I said, I'm religious I don't consider purposefully evil action either inexplicable or unlikely or dependent on purely material causal relationships. I also consider an irrational desire to wield power an explicable motive for bad action.

In lieu of evidence or proof of any wrong-doing I'm happy to take a general stance of mistrust, scepticism and antipathy towards K Schwab and his proposals which seem bad and wrong to me even without the conspiracy angle.

If you want to trust him and other powerful elites until or unless someone has presented incontrovertible material proof that they're evil that is of course your choice.

Thanks for your kind words.

As I see it theres no longer broad agreement about what is good and bad.

Many people may prefer transhumanism and South Korea-style social isolation to the alternatives, at least at first.

So its as much a matter of convincing people that a nightmare world of virtuality and separateness and integrating their physical body with technology is something they should reject as bad and wrong as anything else.
