Some of us on the right believe the “Great Reset” is a left-wing conspiracy to establish a totalitarian one-world government.
But is this just a conspiracy theory?
Klaus Schwab, founder and chairperson of the WEF (World Economic Forum), defines the Great Reset in his 2020 book, Covid-19: The Great Reset. Schwab calls the Covid pandemic an opportunity to reset outdated capitalism to what he calls “stakeholder capitalism” (Schwab, 2.1.4)
But what is stakeholder capitalism? It has been referred to by many names, including corporate socialism, communist capitalism, predatory capitalism, idealistic progressivism, and corporate governance cooperation. And yes, it sounds a lot like totalitarianism.
Schwab believes the pandemic was (is) an opportunity to incorporate more corporate management of both social justice issues and economic control through an ESG (Environmental Social Governance) point system. Those in power, like Schwab, determine this ESG score. It is already heavily promoted by the World Economic Forum, supported by the Big Four accounting firms, and advocated by the International Business Council chairman and Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan. ESG metrics are meant to punish businesses, banks, and borrowers with low scores and promote those with high scores. It is a measurement of how woke a business entity is. In other words, it creates a score (out of thin air) for how a company or corporation “addresses issues as diverse as climate change, economic reforms, gender equality and LGBTQ rights” to determine who stays in business and who does not (1.3.4).
In other words, if you do not have the right political interests, then you are shut down. For example, the Canadian Freedom Convoy wanted to end the Covid shutdown of small businesses and stop the totalitarian vaccine mandate. Instead, big banks froze the personal bank accounts of some truck drivers and their trucking companies. Likewise, de-platforming of those who disagree with Schwab and his woke elites is gaining traction in the United States as well. Furthermore, leftist elites used the Covid pandemic to shut down millions of small businesses permanently. Meanwhile, huge woke companies like Amazon, Walmart, Apple, Google, and Facebook grew bigger and bigger and gained more and more control over our freedoms.
Schwab also suggests that we should use the Covid pandemic as an excuse to begin using “smartphone tracking” to track and “identify who is infected” (1.6.2). He admits that this is a “trade-off between public-health benefits and loss of privacy,” where “public power can rightfully override individual rights” (1.6.3). Schwab also acknowledges that this can be referred to as “techno-totalitarian state surveillance” (1.6.3). However, he claims that “it is for those who govern AND each of us personally to control and harness the benefits of technology” (caps added, 1.6.3).
Which is it? Who decides how and when to use this totalitarian state surveillance? Is it individuals, social justice activist groups, or those in power? It will be those in power, and Klaus admits that “the genie of tech surveillance will NOT be put back into the bottle” (caps added, 1.6.3).
So, back to the question: Is the Great Reset meant to establish a totalitarian one-world government? Yes, it is. Powerful corporations, big banks, and their cronies will influence governments worldwide. However, these corporate cronies will not have any responsibility to voters. Nonetheless, these new overlords will use their power to make and break other businesses and control individual choices. Stakeholder capitalism is a form of corporate totalitarianism where ESGs determine who can stay in business and who cannot. It is a fascinating spin on identifying and determining who can buy or sell (Rev 13:17). Only this time, the emphasis is on who can sell. And the answer is only those with a high ESG (Rev 13:17). And who determines this score? Well, someone like Klaus Schwab and his corporate elites, of course (Rev 13:18).
