kj35 Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Sort of fits under the great reset thread but this is specifically for all things Klaus Schwab, his advisors and the World Economic Forum's multi layered thoughts for humanities future.

kj35 Posted July 11, 2022 Author Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) I'll kick it off with this vision of " you will own nothing and be happy" that after much internet backlash they have removed from their website. Copied from Forbes Still plenty of links showing this was endorsed by the WEF. LEADERSHIP STRATEGY Welcome To 2030: I Own Nothing, Have No Privacy And Life Has Never Been Better World Economic Forum Contributor By Ida Auken 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. First communication became digitized and free to everyone. Then, when clean energy became free, things started to move quickly. Transportation dropped dramatically in price. It made no sense for us to own cars anymore, because we could call a driverless vehicle or a flying car for longer journeys within minutes. We started transporting ourselves in a much more organized and coordinated way when public transport became easier, quicker and more convenient than the car. Now I can hardly believe that we accepted congestion and traffic jams, not to mention the air pollution from combustion engines. What were we thinking? Sometimes I use my bike when I go to see some of my friends. I enjoy the exercise and the ride. It kind of gets the soul to come along on the journey. Funny how some things seem never seem to lose their excitement: walking, biking, cooking, drawing and growing plants. It makes perfect sense and reminds us of how our culture emerged out of a close relationship with nature. In our city we don’t pay any rent, because someone else is using our free space whenever we do not need it. My living room is used for business meetings when I am not there. Once in a while, I will choose to cook for myself. It is easy – the necessary kitchen equipment is delivered at my door within minutes. Since transport became free, we stopped having all those things stuffed into our home. Why keep a pasta-maker and a crepe cooker crammed into our cupboards? We can just order them when we need them. This also made the breakthrough of the circular economy easier. When products are turned into services, no one has an interest in things with a short life span. Everything is designed for durability, repairability and recyclability. The materials are flowing more quickly in our economy and can be transformed to new products pretty easily. Environmental problems seem far away, since we only use clean energy and clean production methods. The air is clean, the water is clean and nobody would dare to touch the protected areas of nature because they constitute such value to our well-being. In the cities we have plenty of green space and plants and trees all over. I still do not understand why in the past we filled all free spots in the city with concrete. Shopping? I can’t really remember what that is. For most of us, it has been turned into choosing things to use. Sometimes I find this fun, and sometimes I just want the algorithm to do it for me. It knows my taste better than I do by now. When AI and robots took over so much of our work, we suddenly had time to eat well, sleep well and spend time with other people. The concept of rush hour makes no sense anymore, since the work that we do can be done at any time. I don’t really know if I would call it work anymore. It is more like thinking-time, creation-time and development-time. For a while, everything was turned into entertainment and people did not want to bother themselves with difficult issues. It was only at the last minute that we found out how to use all these new technologies for better purposes than just killing time. My biggest concern is all the people who do not live in our city. Those we lost on the way. Those who decided that it became too much, all this technology. Those who felt obsolete and useless when robots and AI took over big parts of our jobs. Those who got upset with the political system and turned against it. They live different kind of lives outside of the city. Some have formed little self-supplying communities. Others just stayed in the empty and abandoned houses in small 19th century villages. Once in a while I get annoyed about the fact that I have no real privacy. Nowhere I can go and not be registered. I know that, somewhere, everything I do, think and dream of is recorded. I just hope that nobody will use it against me. All in all, it is a good life. Much better than the path we were on, where it became so clear that we could not continue with the same model of growth. We had all these terrible things happening: lifestyle diseases, climate change, the refugee crisis, environmental degradation, completely congested cities, water pollution, air pollution, social unrest and unemployment. We lost way too many people before we realized that we could do things differently. This blog was written ahead of the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting of the Global Future Councils.

Grumpy Grapes Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 This is reminiscent of dystopian literature, in which people who live outside the scientifically planned cities are demonised by the authorities, e.g. the 1921 classic novel "We". Country folk have long been looked down upon by City folk, and ridiculed/demonised in fiction. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kj35 Posted July 11, 2022 Author Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) Klaus Schwab openly talks about humans having brain implants for thoughts to be read and Elon Musk former Young Global Leader for the WEF owns neuralink. There's no coincidence there. Yuval harari the right hand man for Klaus Schwab talking about humans being hackable. Very near future totalitarian regimes lots of 'useless' people.

Talorgan Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Long planned agenda with hidden motives but made to sound nice on surface. Their idea is for huge hive minds so we all bee--hive ourselves no real individuals except them I suppose although that's debatable . Just buzz buzz of AI, Hal etc So COVID-19 fitted the bill to take it further eg see Lockstep by Rockefeller Foundation ten years earlier etc and way back before that All the fallout from their plans in terms of human suffering is mega criminal to say the least. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
