The Economic Slavery of Globalism, By James Reed

J. B. Shurk, "Globalism is Economic Slavery," outlines the future that the globalists have install for us, along the lines of the World Economic Forum's mantra that you "will own nothing, and be happy." One wonders why a concern about being "happy," would even matter, even as propaganda, since the goal of naked power is to crush individual liberty anyway in the name of the globalist control of everything?

In any case Shurk does a good job detailing what life will be like if the globalists win on their agenda. In short, every liberty that one now has will be gone in a digital dystopia. The account is well worth reading to get a sense of just how bad things could get if we do not fight the greatest battle liberty has ever faced. I think the account below is somewhat restrained, as what is more likely is that we, the useless eaters will be replaced ultimately by AI, and real pandemics will be unleashed from bioweapons labs to polish us all off, to reduce the carbon footprints. The Covid plandemic was a test run for all of this.

"Imagine life in the near future. A man resides alone in a tiny apartment. He would prefer to be married, but the State considers that antiquated institution "patriarchal" and "white supremacist." He would prefer to have children, but he can't afford them. Besides, his yearly carbon allowance is insufficient to cover another resource-wasting human being.

He has never owned anything. He rents his bedroom, his furnishings, and his meager entertainments. Each month, a digital account associated with his digital ID receives a number of central bank digital currency units. How much he receives depends upon the number of hours he works at his government job, how much the government values his work, how much the government taxes him for the privilege of using public infrastructure, and how much of his income the government decides should be redistributed to other citizens in need. After taxes, rents, utilities, and other assorted municipal, state, federal, and international fees are deducted from his earnings, he has little — if any — discretionary income.

If he chooses to save that income to invest in his future, the government informs him that his central bank digital currency units disappear within ninety days. If he tries to purchase something that the government has banned, he forfeits what he currently has. If he does something that the government deems contrary to his well-being, his social credit score decreases, and a fraction of his discretionary income disappears. Every few weeks, a digital doctor (running on artificial intelligence) appears on the video screen in his apartment with a detailed list of all the "unhealthy" things he has done since their last interaction. He is informed that a portion of his temporary savings will be redistributed to citizens with healthier habits. His A.I. health monitor tells him that he must immediately report to the closest pharmaceutical distribution center so that he can be injected with the latest "vaccines." Failure to do so will result in the deactivation of all electronic entertainment devices and a permanent mark on his social credit record.

He is unhappy, and because the State's A.I. supervisor has detected his unhappiness, the display monitor in his apartment encourages him to find personal meaning by "joining the fight against global warming." For a while, he does just that. He attends community meetings in his apartment building where government officials talk about the importance of "saving the planet" by "owning nothing." He chats with anonymous strangers (bots?) on the State's social media platform, and they all agree that the sacrifices they're making to save the world are definitely worth it. He wakes up one morning to discover that his social credit score has risen and that he has been rewarded with a few extra central bank digital currency units. Still, our future man remains unhappy.

Then one day sirens blare, and his apartment monitor flashes with breaking news: the country is at war. He listens intently but can't figure out which foreign nations are attacking. The trusted news anchors tell him that peace, prosperity, and freedom are all at risk. He steps outside his tiny apartment to find other solitary renters fired up and talking excitedly about the battles to come. He walks back inside to find his A.I. supervisor informing him that he has been personally selected to protect the homeland from its enemies. For the first time in many years, our future man feels alive.

He soon finds himself in boot camp, where he enjoys regular exercise, discipline, and camaraderie. Six months later, he and his new friends are shipped overseas. Strangely, in all this time, nobody has explained whom they will actually be fighting. All he knows is that they're at war with "the authoritarians" who wish to "take our democracy." There is anticipation in his camp and endless talk of adventure. Then, when everyone least expects it, a thunderous swarm of drones attacks from overhead. Nobody has time to react. Explosions seem to come from out of nowhere. He sees the bodies of his friends torn to pieces. Then everything goes dark.

He awakes in a hospital severely injured, is called a hero, and is later sent home. When he arrives, he notices breadlines outside the government's genetically engineered food distribution centers. He hears a beggar on the street joke that they should call them "insect-lines," since that's all there is to eat. He learns that someone else has moved into his old apartment, but he is offered a new one because of his military service. It is smaller and has even fewer furnishings than the one he lost. He realizes that most of his former neighbors never returned from war and that many of the newcomers now living in their apartments look and sound like those people he was told to fight overseas. Nothing makes sense. His injuries torment him. He feels even more lost and lonely than before he went to war. His A.I. supervisor informs him that he has been added to a list of people considered "potential domestic terrorists." Remaining on this list will make it hard for him to work and live.

Then, one day, his digital doctor asks if he would like some assistance in ending his life peacefully. "You can save others," he is told, "by permanently reducing your carbon footprint." In agony, he wonders, "How did we get here?"

It happened because good men did not see it coming and did not fight the good fight.
