Technocracy is a war against humanity and has always
been seen that way by critics such as C.S. Lewis.
Like
him or not, Lewis fully described the future as early as
1947.
Technocracy was the most dangerous meme of the 20th
century and it has advanced into a clear and present
danger today.

We've Been
Warned About the 'Great Reset' and 'Technocrat Tyranny'
Do you know anything about
the Great Reset?
You should, if for
no other reason than because I wrote a
major piece on it just a few days ago.
In it, I talked
about,
how the radical
elites, the globalists, the UN, the IMF, and the World Economic
Forum (WEF), to name just a few,
...are
working overtime to radically remake life as we know it, and set up
their coercive socialist green utopia.
You know this is a
significant movement when Time devoted a 2019 "Special
Davos Issue" to this, featuring the likes of,
And then this
month Time did an entire special edition of its magazine to
the Great Reset.
Check out
some of the
contributors and ideas in the 23 articles featured there.
We have all the
usual globalists and elites telling us we need to radically
rethink the nation-state, the free market, and individual
freedoms in order to bring about this Brave New World.
It really is
scary stuff...
The star of the
show is, of course,
Klaus Schwab (1938- ), someone I
mentioned in my earlier piece.
The German
Founder of the European Management Forum (1971), which became
the WEF in 1987, is a radical transhumanist whose ideas are
as kooky - and dangerous - as they come.
Earlier this year
he and Thierry Malleret wrote the book Covid-19 - The Great Reset, a techno-totalitarian manifesto.
The whole plan is
for technological tyranny to solve all our problems, chief of which
are,
A popular phrase
found among these folks is "Build Back Better". You would have heard
Joe Biden, Justin Trudeau, the Prince of Wales and others use it
incessantly...
As James
Delingpole
warns us:
Build Back
Better is the code phrase for one of the most terrifying and
dangerous, globally coordinated assaults on liberty and
prosperity in the history of mankind.
If the plan
succeeds, the world you inhabit will be unrecognizable, your
children will have no prospects and your life will barely be
worth living.
Build Back
Better means totalitarian rule by a global, technocratic elite -
as constrictive and immiserating as life under fascism or
communism.
This hideous
New World Order is the Great Reset...
So how do Biden
and his Great Reset pals fix the global economy in this
apparently desirable future?
Simple:
Big Government takes care
of everything, only not on a national scale this time, but a
global one.
It will be
managed by a technocratic elite over whom you will have no
democratic control.
And these folks, in
true Marxist fashion, want to see private property eliminated
altogether - all for our own good of course.
As one of these
guys has proudly said
four years ago:
Welcome to the
year 2030. Welcome to my city - or should I say, "our city".
I don't own
anything. I don't own a car. I don't own a house. I don't own
any appliances or any clothes. It might seem odd to you, but it
makes perfect sense for us in this city.
Everything you
considered a product, has now become a service. We have access
to transportation, accommodation, food and all the things we
need in our daily lives.
One by one all
these things became free, so it ended up not making sense for us
to own much.
As to Schwab and
his
transhumanism, his
own website tells us all we need to know about his plans,
His views really
are grotesque. He speaks often about the "Fourth Industrial
Revolution," a blend of 'digital-and-analog life.'
This means a mix of
humans and artificial intelligence, an emphasis on nanotechnology
and eugenics, and a rewriting of what it means to be human...
Or as Schwab put
it,
"What the
fourth industrial revolution will lead to is a fusion of our
physical, digital and biological identity".
As one
report on all this puts it:
In the book,
Schwab explains with excitement how upcoming technology will
allow authorities to,
"intrude
into the hitherto private space of our minds, reading our
thoughts and influencing our behavior."
He goes on to
predict that this will provide an incentive for law enforcement
to implement Minority Report-style pre-crime programs.
"As
capabilities in this area improve, the temptation for law
enforcement agencies and courts to use techniques to
determine the likelihood of criminal activity, assess guilt
or even possibly retrieve memories directly from people's
brains will increase," writes Schwab.
"Even
crossing a national border might one day involve a detailed
brain scan to assess an individual's security risk."
And all this
coercive utopianism is tied in with
coronavirus and
global warming.
It has become the
perfect excuse to bring about this new world
order...
As Barry Chowka
put it some months ago discussing corona and the rise of statism:
We are being
asked to trust these fallible self-selected scientific experts
with the future of our entire civilization.
Overnight, our
society is doing what radical leftist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
(D-NY) and her fellow
Green New Deal fanatics have demanded:
-
an
almost total end to air travel
-
personal automobile travel down to a trickle
-
promises of free health care for all quickly becoming
the new status quo
-
the
ability of people to sit at home without working and
receive a paycheck from the government...
The Democrats
want that to continue indefinitely...
But we have been
warned about all this so often.
Think of prescient
novelists like,
They both described
in gory detail what such dystopian futures might look like.
Another great
English writer during this same period who also discussed these
matters was C.S. Lewis. In a number of books and articles he
warned about where we were heading, as new technologies, coupled
with increased statism, spelt "the abolition of man".
And that was the
title of his 1947 book:
The Abolition of Man.
In it, he said
this:
"What we call
Man's power over Nature turns out to be power exercised by some
men over other men with Nature as its instrument."
He continued,
"Man's conquest
of Nature, if the dreams of some scientific planners are
realized, means the rule of a few hundreds of men over billions
upon billions of men.
There neither
is nor can be any simple increase of power on Man's side. Each
new power won by man is a power over man as well."
And of course, his
third volume in his space trilogy was all about rogue science and
unethical technocrats. That Hideous Strength (1946) was a
clear warning about coming coercive dystopias.
The evil
organization N.I.C.E. is the villain in the novel. The National
Institute for Coordinated Experiments is a government
bureaucracy established to help mankind - aren't they all? It of
course does nothing of the sort.
Several quotes can be offered here.
One makes the point
of how euphemisms and subterfuge are ever the weapons of choice for
these technocrats:
We want you to
write it down - to camouflage it. Only for the present, of
course.
Once the thing
gets going we shan't have to bother about the great heart of the
British public. We'll make the great heart what we want it to
be. But in the meantime, it does make a difference how things
are put.
For instance,
if it were even whispered that the N.I.C.E. wanted powers to
experiment on criminals, you'd have all the old women of both
sexes up in arms and yapping about humanity.
Call it
re-education of the maladjusted, and you have them all
slobbering with delight that the brutal era of retributive
punishment has at last come to an end.
Odd thing it is
- the word 'experiment' is unpopular, but not the word
'experimental.'
You mustn't
experiment on children; but offer the dear little kiddies free
education in an experimental school attached to the N.I.C.E. and
it's all correct!
And another gives
us the bigger picture of this war on humanity:
The physical
sciences, good and innocent in themselves, had already… begun to
be warped, had been subtly manoeuvred in a certain direction.
Despair of
objective truth had been increasingly insinuated into the
scientists; indifference to it, and a concentration upon mere
power, had been the result…
The very
experiences of the dissecting room and the pathological
laboratory were breeding a conviction that the stifling of all
deep-set repugnances was the first essential for progress.
This important
thriller clearly shows the deep concerns Lewis had about where
unethical science and unconstrained technocracy can take us.
And his vision of a
dark new world has certainly proven to be quite
accurate.
Eugenics certainly did not die
out with the Nazi experiments but is alive and well in the West
today.
In fact, it has
only gotten worse...
When we combine
media-led hysteria and alarmism about things like the climate
and corona with these billionaires - be they Schwab or
Soros or
Gates - who believe they know
what is best for us mere humans, we are seeing the prophetic novels
coming to life in very real and very frightening ways...
