What is “The Great Reset?”

Basically, “The Great Reset” is little more than erasing the “historical record” that provides a traditional context for decision-making to protect the plans, prescriptions, and powerplays of the elites from being summarily dismissed as evil, unworkable, or too expensive in terms of a return on investment. The history that highlights bad ideas, bad actors, and the glaring failures of the past, which reflects poorly on recycled ideas.

Who is behind “The Great Reset?”

The World Economic Forum, an elite international non-governmental lobbying organization based in Switzerland, is promoting its “The Great Reset initiative.”

[OCS: When elite organizations gather wealthy, powerful, and politically-connected individuals to improve society, what they are really doing is crafting a narrative that can be used by their sponsors and membership to justify their own agendas and self-interests. In essence, this is the broad outline of a loosely-coupled conspiracy where organizations and individuals need not conspire individually to move in the same direction. That direction is almost always targeted to keeping the elites in power and generating profits.]

THE CONTEXT
The Covid-19 crisis, and the political, economic and social disruptions it has caused, is fundamentally changing the traditional context for decision-making.

[OCS: Hat tip to former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel who famously said, “You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it's an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.”

There is no doubt that public and private organizations have used the pandemic caused by the Chinese Communist Virus to strengthen their power and profits. In most cases, media-generated panic has allowed a relaxation in the critical thinking that stops evildoers from doing things that would normally be questioned and rejected outright.]

The inconsistencies, inadequacies and contradictions of multiple systems –from health and financial to energy and education – are more exposed than ever amidst a global context of concern for lives, livelihoods and the planet. Leaders find themselves at a historic crossroads, managing short-term pressures against medium- and long-term uncertainties.

[OCS: Inconsistencies, inadequacies and contradictions are the natural consequences of competing interests and evildoers – many flaws deliberately built into the system by lawyers and politicians responding to their respective special interests. Leaders are preoccupied with staying in power, feathering their own nests, rewarding their friends, and punishing their enemies.]

THE OPPORTUNITY
As we enter a unique window of opportunity to shape the recovery, this initiative will offer insights to help inform all those determining the future state of global relations, the direction of national economies, the priorities of societies, the nature of business models and the management of a global commons.

[OCS: There is always an opportunity to improve your life, your community, and your nation. The the future state of global relations will always involve conflict between competing interests, especially over scarce natural resources. The inherent conflict between capitalism, socialism/communism, and theocratic religions like Islam insure a world in perpetual conflict. The only global common goal is remaining in power and keeping profits flowing.]

Drawing from the vision and vast expertise of the leaders engaged across the Forum’s communities, the Great Reset initiative has a set of dimensions to build a new social contract that honors the dignity of every human being. <Source>

[OCS: Spare me the rhetoric about the vision and expertise of our leadership. The very same individuals and organizations who have brought us to this sad state of affairs and the edge of the abyss are the same ones now telling us to trust them to find a solution and provide the leadership we so desperately need.

As for mentions of “human dignity,” these are often codewords for a society based, not on merit, but identity classes and its inherent class conflicts. There is no way to equalize the differences between the strong and weak, the rich and poor, and those who can process information faster than others without imposing an artificial scheme based on authoritarian rule.]

Misinformation…

As part of “The Great Reset,” we are seeing an effort to wipe out “misinformation,” which is defined as any information those in power dislike. The powerful public and private institutions censor information or cancel individuals and sources presenting contrarian information or alternative viewpoints. In many cases, publicly shaming individuals in the media to encourage self-censorship.

The Bottom Line…

Look around you. The progressive communist democrats redefine words and concepts with previously common understandings and meanings. Institutions are being renamed. Statues destroyed. Books abandoned. The media moguls are substituting entertainment for education, and the tech tyrants are using psychological tricks to increase your engagement with easily controlled electronic devices. And we are being deceived daily.

Truth be told, The Great Reset is little more than the erasure of history to promote a progressive communist democrat agenda.

We are being screwed.
