Seeing as very few people either know about or want to talk about "Common Purpose", I've taken it upon myself to start this topic here. I understand that there was a topic on this on the 'old' DI Forum, but as that is now lost, lets start again from scratch. First of all, I'll start off with a 'primer' that I wrote on my own website earlier this year. http://thegrumpyowl.co.uk/2020/04/05/common-purpose-and-the-technocracy-we-now-live-in/ ‘Common Purpose’ and the Technocracy we now live in There’s probably a very good chance that if I ask you if you’ve ever heard of the organisation “Common Purpose”, the answer is likely “no”. Who/what is “Common Purpose”? On the surface, the statement made on their website seems fairly well-intentioned. The rest of the homepage contains all the usual Newspeak ‘buzzwords’ such as ‘robust’, ‘diverse’, ‘stakeholder’ etc. So what’s so bad about this then? The Common Purpose Exposed website explains in detail: Sounding pretty sinister so far? The above image is from the Stop Common Purpose website and shows how Common Purpose (CP) sits itself at the centre of a web, with its tentacles everywhere. So that’s the basic gist, and both websites linked to above contain lots of further information about how this organisation operates, though to be fair both are a little outdated, and haven’t been updated for some time. I’ll just add at this point that the UK Column website has a series of articles covering ‘The Common Purpose Effect‘ which are also valuable reading. What’s this about ‘technocracy’ then? From Wikipedia: Again, on the surface, this doesn’t sound like a bad idea. Wouldn’t it be great if the Minister For Health was actually someone with a professional medical background, or if the Minister For Education was some ex-teacher or headmaster? The downside… Well, there’s always a ‘but’… … what if these ‘experts’ have their own ideological agenda that they wish to see carried out? Or, what if these ‘experts’ are carrying out someone else’s ideological agenda? “Leaders without boundaries” Making sense yet? Who is running this country? Our ‘democratically-elected’ leaders? Or the unelected ‘experts’ who are ‘advising’ them on policy? We already know that the UK Government (and other governments around the world) have had ‘climate policies’ dictated to them by ‘climate change scientists’, sorry, ‘advised’ by climate scientists. (You know, the 97% of scientists that are in complete agreement?) The current ‘lockdown’ situation in response to the ‘coronavirus’ Covid-19 ‘pandemic’ is also as a result of ‘advice’ from public health ‘experts’. I know of at least one person who wrote to their MP with concerns about the current UK lockdown due to this ‘pandemic’ and provided well-resourced information which contradicts the ‘mainstream’ narrative, and received a response which basically said “the Government is acting on advice from public health experts”. Who’s In Control? So it seems we are already living in a technocracy, where the Government is ‘acting on advice’ from ‘experts’. Who exactly are these ‘experts’? It stands a very good chance that these ‘experts’ are Common Purpose graduates themselves, or have been programmed/conditioned by other Common Purpose members. As per the links provided earlier, Common Purpose graduates/members are everywhere – within the NHS, police service, Civil Service, local government, charities, media outlets, educational establishments, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), consultancies, and various other organisations. If you’ve ever wondered why things just don’t make any sense anymore, join the dots and understand that there is a common thread linking everything together: Common Purpose. Nobody elected these ‘experts’. No-one seems to question their judgement or ‘advice’. They may be right, they may be wrong. But should we be so beholden to these ‘experts’ that we dare not question their own motives or agenda? The technocracy is already here, we just don’t know it yet, because we still ‘trust’ our elected officials to be doing “what’s best for us all”.
