And the Lord came down

to see the city and the tower,

which the children of men builded.

Genesis 11:5
 

The Great Reset

 

The 4^th Industrial Revolution

 

The 4^th Turning

 

The Great Awakening and Artificial Intelligence...

These are the real themes that are shaping the socio-political, cultural, and ideological landscape of our lives in 2020.

The push for lockdown and quarantine towards a Great Reset is increasingly understood by critics as program of mass enslavement and collective punishment, population reduction, presented within the trappings progressive talking points.

In our last piece on the Great Reset, 'Whose Great Reset? The Fight for Our Future - Technocracy vs. the Republic', we confronted the Orwellian nature of the term itself, showing that the ostensibly technocratic new proposal was being made in a way that appears to short-cut the decision making processes of sovereign states as well as democratic processes within republics.

In the eternal words of the Irish author, Oscar Wilde,

'Life imitates art far more than art imitates life'.

"That we live in a time where the plans of the elite are more openly and more brazenly spelled out, in fiction, in public mythology, in culture, and are manufactured in a way entirely out of the hands of the vast majority of people whose lives will be forever changed, likely for the worse, is hands-down the real catastrophe of our time."

There is a strange, if little known fact about the lived lives of prisoners...

Now that humanity faces the real daunting probability of a lockdown regime on the flimsy pretext of a virus with a 99.9% survival rate, we need to understand something about prisoners and the Great Awakening.

The Great Awakening is the product of,

how actually imprisoned people respond to imprisonment...

Just as a person deprived of vision develops an outstanding sense of smell and hearing, a person deprived of physical freedom develops a profound and reified spiritual or supernatural freedom, which is the awakening.

In a strange twist of fate, the more that people are locked down, the more they awaken.

We are caught between two seeming contradictions which in fact reconcile each other.

On the one hand we understand that everything happens for a reason and that justice always prevails in the end.

 

On the other hand we know that the possible destiny that we can have only comes at the cost of tremendous struggle, self-discipline, moral fortitude, and sacrifice.

This much is the mindset of the awakened, of the political soldier, in the course of the fight of the Great Awakening and within the Age of the 4^th Turning.

Censoring Facts, Reifying Fiction

Last month, the father of UK PM Boris Johnson, Stanley Johnson, was caught at a second time in public, not wearing a mask.

Was he unaware that there is a 'highly contagious' pandemic, one which affects his age group in particular?

 

Does he not know what is going on in the UK and around the world?

Or does he know something that the rest of us do not?

The folly that it may be, it came to be learned that it was Stanley Johnson who wrote the dystopian fiction novel, The Virus, one that describes much of what we are living through today.

He is also the author of World Population and the United Nations - Challenge and Response, a non-fiction primer on the subject described in its title.

In The Virus,

in both the narrative arc of the novel, and in his own introduction, Stanley Johnson lays out the necessity of a virus in the eyes of an insidious elite to curb population growth.

 

This coincidence with the actual Agenda 21/2030 of the UN on population control, and the commitment of vaccine advocate and WHO beneficiary Bill Gates to decrease world population, is absolutely disconcerting and raises questions about further 'coincidences' that have since arisen.

 

This of course includes the very position that Boris Johnson holds today in managing the real-life version of the virus in Britain today.

But is this a mere matter of coincidence, or not...?

That question has become the subject of a vigorous debate, with one side of the debate arguing that it is not a coincidence being tremendously censored by social media and effectively barred from giving their side, and the other side being the only voice one hears and sees across social and legacy media.

The fact of this censorship over this question alone appears to lend credence to those being censored, as is often the unintended consequence of censorship, and perhaps the last hope of man.

This is an astonishing example of life imitating art, and now with an increasing public awareness on the relationship between vaccines and infertility, we arrive at the predicate to the film 'Children of Men'.

Children of Men depicts a world in global chaos, war, strife, open street battles between members of quasi-governmental forces and various radical and religious cults, a jihadist military push through the streets of Paris, a paramilitary junta, the effects of mass migration, open air prisons, and worse.

This has taken hold of most of Europe and presumably the world.

 

This breakdown seems to have been the product of a global pandemic of infertility of an unknown origin.

A film from 2008, anyone seeing the film today would instantly recognize the scenes as approximating real-life footage seen on the news in the world of 2020.

The global infertility crisis creates a pervasive sense of insecurity, the impossibility of a stock market, and a conscious sense of impending doom and nihilist response on the part of elites.

Taken together with Johnson's 'The Virus', we can make a rather educated guess how such an outcome would manifest in a reality where life is imitating art:

the virus or the vaccine created to the cure the virus, in fact lends towards infertility...

It isn't difficult to make such a guess, for the reason that, day by day, we see this dystopia becoming our everyday reality.

It has become a matter of fact much more than of fiction. This compels us to approach, soberly, a reassessment of the concept of progress and where it leads

The themes of a virus used as a predicate for both population control and a total social transformation, as we wrote about in 'Whose Great Reset', is one which mirrors the effects of war:

both in terms of a mass casualty event and the need to 'build back better' after an apparent socio-economic collapse induced either by the calamity or by the government's heavy-handed response.

The Ideological State Apparatus of Technocratic Late Modernity

For any number of years, social critics and public philosophers have raised concerns about the never-ending rise of the technocratic and futurist cult of late modernity.

In many ways, this is caught up with the entire ideological project of our epoch, as a left-façade over a technocratic thought-police-state has been weaponized as what Louis Althusser had called the Ideological State Apparatus (ISA) in his landmark text of the same name, "Idéologie et appareils idéologiques d'État - Notes pour une recherche".

We live in a time where the plans of the elite are,

more openly and more brazenly spelled out, in fiction, in public mythology, in culture, and are manufactured in a way entirely out of the hands of the vast majority of people whose lives will be forever changed, likely for the worse, is hands-down the real catastrophe of our time...

For generations, citizens were bombarded with futurist and technocratic motifs, where people were encouraged to naively project their own goodness onto the aims of political and corporate leaders, and scientists, even while this goodness had not been proven or established.

The white lab-coat had become synonymous not only with trust, but with good intentions, and in that sense replaced the priest's frock and black robe.

This has cultivated a fertile soil for the likes of the Dr. Anthony Fauci and his ilk.

 

This has culminated in the now open implementation of a so-called '4^th Industrial Revolution', a progressivist framework wrapped within the sociology of Marx but absent its humanism and emancipatory components - a 'technocratic Marxism of elites'.

The church of the progress myth has characterized much of the socio-political discourse of the last century.

It has been one which has prepared several generations to accept the 'challenges of change' as a foregone necessity, towards the forging of a 'brave new world'.

It has served as the underlying assumption of the three most impactful ideologies of the 20^th century:

• liberalism

• fascism

• communism

So many apple-carts have been overturned along the way towards some combination of those ends, that today there are hundreds of millions of people who have never seen an apple cart with their own eyes.

The Ideological State Apparatus has proscribed that criticisms of real-existing policies, plans, and commitments at the level of the United Nations, such as Agenda 21 and Agenda 2030, are censored across social media.

The censorship itself gives credence to the 'no coincidence' side of the present debate, because the aim of global population reduction is not only explicit, but central.

The established ideological apparatus proscribes that questioning the agenda is 'science denial', and 'far-right conspiracy', which are the double-plus ungood thought-crimes of our day.

Central to the ideological apparatus were the cultural and political tropes which thematically dovetailed with cultural and supply-line globalization within the framework of first-world service-based economies, itself founded on the premise of planned-obsolescence.

Population reduction however is an open goal of elites and their global governance institutions, and all that is contentious is the idea that the same governments that lied about the pretexts for the wars in Iraq and Vietnam, which then went on to murder millions of innocent people, may be lying again today about the methods they may use towards that end.

And yet the past methods of population control such as warfare of the total war type, are unacceptable for elites today because of the specter of a nuclear holocaust that would also contaminate life for the elites themselves.

Johnson is not only aware of this, but is explicit in his introduction to 'The Virus'.

We can also include that war will result in one side or the other being blamed at a time of great collusion between world powers, but yet a global pandemic seems to be an act of god - when in fact perhaps it is the outcome of man playing at god.

The Ideological State Apparatus (ISA) began to mutate in the late 1970's, absorbing, deforming and then projecting back onto a society a mutated form of the very same protest radicalism which previously challenged the older Ideological State Apparatus.

This new ISA was characterized by a new social morality, which delivered the now pervasive cult of political correctness.

 

This ideological authoritarianism is one where slavery and self-harm are virtue signals, and this cultural shift towards public flagellation made possible the idea that lockdown, quarantine, and mask wearing was a sign of 'virtue' more so than 'health'.

 

Without this change in the ISA over the past few decades, there could have never been a new normal...

It has become an unquestioned "fact" that the world is doomed by vast overpopulation.

 

From children's textbooks to apocalyptic movies the narrative is unquestioningly pushed.

 

But how exactly do we know when and if there is a breaking point?

Conclusion

As we have laid out the surface of the problem and begun to hint at the necessary course of solutions, in Part II we will dig deeper into the problem and flesh out what a just order would look like.

In Part II, we will look at the origins of the social contract and the problem of free men versus the growing bureaucratic form, in history.

This will set us up to look at why at the philosophical level our present elites have landed on misanthropy and genocide as a human population reduction program, as the best possible solution.

Finally we will explain that while a 4^th industrial revolution will come either way, that population reduction and slavery is not a necessary component of it.

Rather, that it is up to free men to determine what that will look like and we will sketch out its actual functions...
