Status Updates From Against the Great Reset: Ei...

The Great Reset and “Stakeholderism” by Alberto Mingardi was another great look at why so many people I speak to today tell me capitalism is the problem; essentially what they’re seeing in todays market is NOT Capitalism at all, but Cronyism (the cooperation of government and business for profit). Stakeholderism like Schwab promotes is absolute lunacy for anyone wanting to see more people out of poverty.

The Great Anti-Industrial Revolution by Martin Hutchison is a GREAT outline of the history of capitalism and how it lifted the human race out of the poverty and serfdom the WEF will return us to with their despicable 2030 agenda.

Green Energy and the Future of Transportation by Salvatore Babones was one of the most hopeful chapters in the book. Part of his summary was extraordinarily astute when he said, “gradual transition (to a cleaner future) should be gradual, incremental, and decentralized, not sudden, systematic, and centrally administered.” Love how he pointed out WEF “stakeholder capitalism” is really profit-driven communism.

The part on feminism was a bit depressing at first as this ridiculous struggle for which sex is better makes no sense to me; both are unique and vital to human existence! The summary paragraph was excellent and encouraging though. The next 2 chapters by Tierney and Stein respectively were revealing of both the future and past (also respectively) and especially Stein delivers his message with a very positive outlook.

Despite Anton’s views on libertarianism (incorrect views IMO) I do understand what he’s saying about how the GR is not about socialism, but he seems to ignore how the rise of socialism within capitalist countries led us to the cronyism that is making the GR possible.

When Anton says that libertarians espouse that “heroin ought to be legal and if the market demands it in abundant supply” clings only to the concept that it can cause erratic behavior, even death. I have never used it nor do I want to, but the problem w/ making it illegal is it creates a profitable black market where only the most vicious succeed. Penalizing the crimes committed by users would be more effective.

In Socialism & the Great Reset by Michael Anton, I find his description of Marx & Engels’ version of capitalism as “an extreme libertarianism where economic is elevated above all other concerns and crushes and sweeps aside everything else… only productivity and profit matter” lacking. Only a short term thinker would preclude the virtues of the classical capitalists he mentions next as not being profitable…

The War on Capitalism chapter by Conrad Black was extremely important for understanding how capitalism has been demonized as being the same as Cronyism. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Big Tech: Sacred Culture or Cyborg Rapture, by James Poulos, was profound! 👍🏽👍🏽

Not much here I didn’t already know so far…
