This is a guest post written by a humanities teacher and freelance writer who holds a masters
degree from the School of African and Oriental Studies, a public research university in
London. It lays out over fifty concerns regarding pandemic policy implementation and plans
for a cybernetic future, full spectrum dominance of life on the planet by defense, bio-tech,
and finance interests. I’m glad to be able to share my platform so this detailed analysis can be
more widely distributed.
1/8
In light of the political and economic developments which have transpired since Covid-19
was first declared a pandemic, it is becoming clearer by the day how this public health crisis
is being exploited to usher in a new global system of technocratic population control and
compliance.
We must wake from our stupor and identify what is shaping up to be an incredibly dystopian
reality.
I invite everyone to consider how in one fell swoop, this pandemic has served as a catalyst for
the following:
Accelerating a multilateral drive towards a global surveillance apparatus and control grid
where digital health certificates tied to blockchain technology will be used as a cover for the
biometric ID of every vaccinated person on the planet
Scaling the adoption of blockchain technology to lay the global infrastructure for Social
Impact Investing, enabling global financiers to use the aggregated data harvested through
blockchain’s interoperable ledger to efficiently track the impact of their investments and
interventions for returns on investment
Encouraging nations to enlist in the UN’s E-Government Development Index (EGDI)
through the rollout of digital IDs, which will not only enable citizens to access public e-
services but more importantly determine their value as human capital by global financiers
Promoting biometric passports (Digital IDs) to manufacture consent for a social credit
system-akin to the Chinese technocratic model-which will presage a new era of thought
control, by managing, monitoring, punitively profiling and predicting the trustworthiness of
citizens through an overarching system of punishments and rewards in a future which will
resemble a behaviourist panopticon
Encouraging impact investors to risk score citizens through coded interventions and
preference specific behavioural outcomes on e-wallets, forcing citizen compliance and group-
think on a range of metrics tied predominantly to the United Nations Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs), such as education, healthcare, climate security and employment.
Controlling a person’s access to strings attached Universal Basic Income (UBI) and social
welfare which will be distributed via blockchain ledgers and conditioned on the compliance
with behaviour management systems overseen by social impact investors, thus undermining
the ability of cryptocurrency recipients to make autonomous economic choices
Enabling a form of collectivist planning of the world’s economy which will undergo a top-
down reorganization by an unelected minority, who will seize control of the global means of
production, distribution and ownership
2/8
Centralizing power in the hands of ‘stakeholder capitalists’ under the guise of reinventing
capitalism to make it fairer and greener, using deceptive slogans like ‘Build Back Better’
Aligning global investments with the UN’s SDGs so that new international markets can be
built on the disaster and misery of millions of people suffering from the pandemic
Redirecting the flow of global capital by configuring asset allocations as Environmental,
Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG) compliant to achieve achieve predetermined
outcomes for profits
Facilitating pay for success government contracting where the ‘green’ interventions and pre-
emptive investments of stakeholder capitalists which are aligned to the UN’s SDGs will
accrue massive rates of return, thus advancing the UN Agenda 21
Using the Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure which has significantly expanded as a result
of remote working to monitor our digital footprint and drive profitable investments for
predatory social impact investors by making the world’s population fuel for an emergent
social impact economy
Crafting specific legislation and standards for companies to integrate an ‘impact’ framework
and measurement system within their core operations which will permit harvesting data
extracted from the Internet of Things (IoT) to not only surveil the planet but also establish
new markets for vulture philanthropists
Entrusting stakeholder capitalists with managing debt operations and pandemic relief
packages as part of an unprecedented fiscal shock therapy, where entire nations risk being
hollowed out of sovereignty through global ‘structural adjustment’
Exploiting global poverty by shifting the mandate on eminent domain, resulting in the mass
confiscation of private property and thus reversing the democratization of home and land
ownership
Precipitating the greatest transfer of wealth in history, with corporations eliminating
competition and aggregating the market share of many unviable small and medium-sized
enterprises (SMEs) which have been driven into bankruptcy
Squeezing the property-owning middle classes who will have little choice but to settle for
debt release in exchange for total asset forfeiture in the years ahead
Using the furlough scheme as a phased introduction for a guaranteed basic income to pacify
the civil unrest which will naturally accompany massive layoffs caused by lockdowns
Narrowing the scope for self-sufficiency by significantly increasing dependence on
government subsidies, which will lead to a highly stratified neo-feudal order
3/8
Expediting the march towards a cashless society by fuelling an enormous reliance on
technology, causing the masses to recoil further from paper money
Heralding a Bretton Woods moment which promises to transform the operation of
international banking and macroeconomic cooperation through the future adoption of
central bank digital currencies which will interface with health passports
Monetizing on the data from our transactions, which will no longer remain anonymous in a
cashless society
Exposing creditors to central bank manipulation through a reshuffling of capital, bail-ins and
coercive burden sharing agreements once digital currencies are integrated into the
international economy
Restructuring global profit centres to open new equity markets tied to preventative
healthcare, thus radically overhauling the global approach to public health to feed global
impact investments
Crossing the threshold into biocapitalism where our cellular structures will be mined for
health data to feed futures markets in human capital. Genetic engineering tied to quarterly
returns. Just wait and see.
Conditioning the globe for inevitable top-up vaccines to deal with resistant variants as a test
bed for piloting next-generation experimental gene altering therapies and personalised
healthcare based on nanotechnology and neurotechnology
Amplifying the lingering threat of deadly variants to justify unfettered access to our bodies
through intrusive pharmaceutical interventions, such as wirelessly networked medication
consisting of wearable, implantable and ingestible technologies in “smart” environments,
eventually integrating humans into the Internet of Bodies in a biosecurity surveillance state
Holding freedom and liberty to ransom by making our inalienable rights including property
ownership, education, banking, work, travel, housing and special movement and access
privileges conditional on the acceptance of medical interventions with potentially devastating
consequences for our health, personal agency and bodily autonomy
Loosening the statutory constraints on state surveillance activities, thus encouraging the
normalisation of authoritarian public measures and the return of ‘Big Government’ in the
absence of any executive accountability
Reforming governance models by undermining the principles of self-determination and
national sovereignty and legitimating the governance of unelected bureaucrats and private
regulators (technocracy) who operate without a mandate and rely on emerging technologies
instead of the rule of law to maintain public order and control
4/8
Socially engineering the public by convincing them that suffering and deprivation through
draconian lockdowns and social distancing is for their own betterment, thus cementing
acceptance of a new protocol which can be activated in response to any sensationalized public
health threat-real or perceived-which will pave the path for future ‘climate lockdowns’ under
the pretext of ‘saving the planet’
Exploiting fear and hysteria to recalibrate the public’s distaste for measures traditionally
associated with totalitarian regimes, such as invasive technologies for pandemic
preparedness, militarised officers to ensure quarantine compliance and operational use of
drones for policing the public.
Re-writing the rules of the digital ecosystem by significantly expanding the tentacles of Big
Tech and monopolising the information pipelines through mass censorship of dissenting
voices which do not conform to the mainstream narrative
Suppressing the freedom of association/assembly by prohibiting demonstrations and
protests in many parts of the world, thereby criminalising and immobilising effectively
anything that amounts to collective resistance against the ‘new normal’
Destroying the current city space by clearing out offices and non-essential businesses,
allowing Big Tech to restructure entire neighbourhoods and rebuild urban centres as carbon-
neutral, high-tech digital surveillance panopticons called ‘smart cities’ under the benevolent
guise of environmental sustainability and public health, as part of the UN Agenda 2030
Encouraging the framing of urban planning ordinances and statutes so that cities are
controlled by cloud-based applications and embedded sensor networks which can predict the
behaviour of entire populations, through scanning copious volumes of data for behavioural
patterns and real-time tracking of citizens
Assigning citizens virtual perimeters in real-time (geofencing) inside future smart cities
based on biometric data and algorithmic predictions, where GPS coordinates linked to nano-
robotic biosensors can track compliance with wearable technologies to alert authorities if
non-compliant citizens stray beyond ‘safe areas’
Legitimising the eco-propaganda of ‘green’ capitalists by stoking mass fears of zoonotic
illnesses owing to human activity and in order to drive a wedge between wildlife and rural
human settlements
Promoting the World Bank’s One Health program by monopolising the discourse on
decarbonisation as well as containment strategies and preventive disease mitigation for
zoonotic illnesses, to justify the uprooting of indigenous people from their territories, thus
legislating the separation of humans from nature and paving the path for the annexation of
rural settlements
5/8
Advancing agendas like the New Deal for Nature in the name of biodiversity, to move rural
inhabitants into mega housing complexes, vacant office spaces, abandoned retail floors and
devalued properties all of which have been induced by lockdowns , as part of an urban
densification strategy to integrate the masses into algorithm driven public spaces and
controlled habitation zones in future smart cities for full spectrum surveillance, resulting in
the mass land theft of original inhabitants
Incentivising agribusiness and tech giants to transform and privatise the global food supply
system and push plant based synthetic meats as part of the ‘green farming’ agenda pursued
by climate cultists, which will decimate regenerative meat and dairy farming practices and
displace entire livestock farming communities
Ushering the growth of a digital ‘platform economy’ where tech titans are the primary
beneficiaries of the seismic changes and disruptions to the way we trade, work and socialise
Diminishing the footfall of traditional brick and mortar businesses and institutions through
social distancing and lockdowns in order to change the muscle memory of consumption
habits and consolidate the gains of online business giants
Restructuring employment protocols in a way that minimises human contact in order to
accelerate the relentless march of workforce automation, which will be touted as not only
more scalable but also safer and greener in a world threatened by viruses and environmental
crises
Marking the transition of Artificial Intelligence (AI) from pilot programmes to large-scale
operations at organisational and industry levels in the next decade, which will bankrupt
many businesses which are unable to integrate AI into its operations
Propelling the role of disruptive technologies leading to the dramatic downsizing of the
global workforce which will threaten hundreds of millions of blue and white collar jobs,
resulting in the greatest and fastest displacement of jobs in history
Forcing a global economic underclass into micro-work contracts and low-wage jobs in an
emerging gig economy, much of which will involve telepresence labour using haptic robotic
controlled technologies to advance the next era of globalisation
Promoting social distancing and lockdowns as a safer, cheaper and ‘greener’ means of
reimagining business models, to fuel dependency on digital innovations and e-strategies
Allowing global financiers to digitize several aspects of public service delivery through
predatory public-private partnerships and scalable technology based solutions to create new
markets for social impact investors
Converting the education system into a magnet for tech interests through a soft-transition to
e-learning
6/8
Using the blended learning and hybrid teaching model as part of a long term agenda to
replace brick and mortar schools and face-to-face education with personalised AI learning
programmes in virtual learning environments
Feeding children to deep-learning algorithms via smart-learning platforms to harvest their
cognitive-behavioural data and soft skills such as social-emotional intelligence through a
blockchain credentialing system, using coded nudges and smart badges to ensure they only
acquire the skills which social impact investors deem desirable for maintaining the planned
economy
Integrating children into cradle-to-career pathways and lifelong learning ecosystems so they
can build their portfolios on blockchain and track their economic output to their education
over time, thus serving the interests of social impact investors who can pursue plans to
reform early childhood development interventions using financial mechanisms like social
impact bonds and collect impact payments
Promoting smart-learning platforms to determine workforce preparedness for future
generations who will be competing with an international workforce for remote on-demand AI
assigned work in a gig economy
Justifying income sharing agreements with impact investors and the garnishing of wages
through smart contracts due to the financing required for constant reskilling, rendering
much of the globe as securities and commodities for speculative investment leading to the
emergence of human capital bond markets
Conditioning children and student populations into accepting a cybernetic future, where
simulation-based learning applications, virtual reality training for gig jobs and device-based
education will acclimatise forthcoming generations for a life which resembles a gamified
mixed augmented reality simulation where they can be sifted and sorted on blockchain and
mined as data commodities on the dashboard of global financiers
Acclimatising the global population for the cybernetic mediation of social and professional
relationships and an inevitable progression towards transhumanism by depersonalising,
disconnecting and alienating individuals from free and spontaneous social interactions due
to social distancing
Ushering the dawn of the most dangerous juncture in humanity where technologies will be
gradually harnessed to eventually transcend our biological limitations to trigger the
singularity
Going by the footprint of this virus, it dovetails so neatly with the globalist aspiration for full
spectrum dominance and is the perfect smokescreen for The Fourth Industrial Revolution,
a.k.a. The Great Reset.
7/8
If we allow fear and hysteria to be weaponized against us, it will simply fog our perception of
events and break our grasp on reality.
We are currently on the precipice between freedom and serfdom and it is the responsibility of
anyone with a conscience to expose the dystopia into which we are sleepwalking.
Forewarned is forearmed.
