All power leads towards consolidation eventually, because power simply wants more power. That's it's nature. It has been that way since the 1st feud between two beings. That 1st rivalry would have evolved into factions, those factions into dueling mobs and eventually, those into dueling countries. All corporations, governments and parties eventually need to consolidate to withstand rivals. That's what the UN is, what NATO is, what the Iron Curtain was and today factions are continuing to form between Western and Eastern rivals. The only force that would oppose that ideology would be a force that believes in independence and personal autonomy. That ideology would have limitations on the consolidation. So what you're seeing in the world is people who are willing to sacrifice their person autonomy vs those who won't. They'vesucked the masses into relatively high levels of comfort. On the face of things, the 1st world is at it's most complacent levels ever. Albeit the FBI raid on Trump will ignite a strong realisation of where the barometers really at. ...insert Watchmen clock graphics here.

Albeit the FBI raid on Trump will ignite a strong realisation of where the barometers really at. ...insert Watchmen clock graphics here. I remember the day I had the realization that I was wrong in my life when I saw the hypocrisy of the life I was raised in. It shattered the foundations of everything I believed for 30 years, it tore apart my family and it even tore me apart emotionally or a few years as I had to relearn how to see life through new glasses. It happened right when I found the CGC boards in 2004. It was a paradigm shift that turned my world upside down. It was literally the 1st day of the rest of my life. I was 'born' into something new and would never be the same again. The analogy that most here would understand is that it was like spotting restoration on a comic book. Once you learn how to do it, you can never unsee it and always spot it easily after. There are a LOT of people who have no idea what's going on and it's terrifying to me. There's hidden 'restoration' EVERYWHERE and they're all oblivious to it right now because they either don't want to see it and devalue their own collections or they think it's impossible that they've been duped for so long.

While we're on the topic of ESG, the Great Reset and the World Economic Forum, it's worth noting who are members.
Besides every major corporation being a member so are all the 'progressive' politicians.
In case anyone cares, Trudeau and Singh are about the most hated people in Canada right now and likely would rank up there as the most hated members in Canadian government history.

Hopefully the top row will all be gone soon enough. We can see them at work, there's no question around their actions, or agenda's, and us the people are sick of it. Whether it's in Canada, or NZ.

Isn't history and seeing things in hindsight amazing?
Future events can totally change how past historical events might look.

House Republicans Plan to Investigate Chamber of Commerce If They Take the MajorityToday’s GOP war on the U.S. Chamber of Commerce represents a stunning turnaround from just a few years ago.Republicans plan to launch a variety of investigations into the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and many of its largest member corporations if they retake the majority in the House of Representatives this November. The probes, said a GOP member of Congress and multiple Republican operatives who requested anonymity to discuss plans that have yet to be made public, will marry Republicans’ newly formed hostility to the Chamber with the party’s mission to undermine the growth of the ESG investment sector.----------------------------------- Remember when I said that ESG was the PRIMARY DRIVER for ALL of the political and societal changes we are now seeing? The reason things are changing so quickly is because ALL THAT MATTERS is how well the big corporations can invest money into society. That's the most important thing in the world to the powers that be. And that is determined by how much they can control society to stabilize their investments. It all boils down to this: Do you want control over your own life or do you want someone else to have control over it? That is the root principle at stake here. Now, who is the conspiracy theorist? The ones who were right all along or the ones that opposed them?

I know it's hard being the Dr Banners and namisgrs of the world and seeing the world through only a funnel, unable to think objectively and critically, and in a broad scope but if you take the time to remove your ego, and learn about all of this without looking at it through politics, I am pretty sure MOST of you will have no choice but come to the same conclusions most of us are coming to.
And that conclusion is that your overlord cares nothing about you and a true, democratic self governing society looks nothing like what we're living in today.
Pretty soon 2019 will just be a faraway story.
And the people who gave it away for you did it because they lacked the integrity to see it for what it was.
It's always a lack of integrity that sells humanity out. Just like it did 80 years ago in Germany and a 100 years ago in Russia.

Bloomberg Columnist Smacks ‘Apostles’ of Woke ESG MovementA columnist for the liberal outlet Bloomberg took a sledgehammer to the woke environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards movement currently plaguing corporate America.“ESG didn’t even provide a reliable template for how to deal with an obvious evil such as Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. Stephen Bainbridge of UCLA Law School points out that European corporations with major operations in Russia prior to Putin’s invasion of Ukraine typically had higher ESG ratings than those who were not operating in Russia.”

The uprising is taking form. The "woke" movement and ESG in general is completely against humanity, treating everyone like a commodity just like every Marxist and authoritarian movement we've experienced in modern civilization.

I saw it. I heard a good discussion recently about immigration. The majority of those coming over the southern border are religious and believe in a strong family. Many of them have problems with "wokeism" and the Democratic party. So the Left's dream of changing the voting demographics may be backfiring.

My dating tastes tend to gravitate toward Latin women so I've interacted with a lot of them from various Latin countries. Without exception, every single woman I know has ZERO TOLERENCE for woke values, want their men to be MEN in the traditional sense, believe in gun ownership and have strong traditional family values. I just have to ask, if the concept of letting immigrants in was to prop up the voter base, how did the left conclude that this was a good idea? Or is this narrative just some construct made up by the right to oppose the immigrants? Is there a leftist source that can somehow confirm this is what they were intending?

President Donald Trump’s reliance on the politics of racial resentment would only quicken the process, solidifying support for Democrats among people of color.
Then came November 3, 2020. And all those assumptions now seem like total nonsense.

I realize this is economics 101 for the professors but not everyone realizes this.
I had a thought on the CGC forums but I can't really express myself there.
I think some people will appreciate it, though so I'll post it here.
Most people think of business in terms of businesses increasing revenue by raising prices, lowering costs, etc. But that's really just half the story.
That USED to be the case. A company like, say Fed Ex would try to beat out a company like UPS by competing directly against them.
But investors are much bigger now and the returns they are looking for are much larger.
The types of companies that own companies as large as Fed Ex are like countries to themselves, and their goal is not primarily to increase the profit of a company they own like Fed Ex.
While that's "A" goal, it's not "THE" goal.
The goal is to transfer wealth at a much greater rate than revenue from a business may be able to generate by manipulating policies that these companies operate in.
So that business they own is used as a tool to work towards THAT goal.
Government and big money or big corporations have melded into one and the same thing. The corporation is the vehicle and the government is the tool.
The people being governed are entirely irreverent in the equation in the sense that what they want from Fed Ex doesn't really matter.
All that really matters is how the people can be used by Fed Ex for the largest investors to get the wealth transfers that they are looking for.
Anyone disagree?

I know the usual pundits thought this was all a conspiracy theory, and I know the same pundits loved laughing at people who could see through the BS. Thank God some of us don't cave to bullies and can see clearly. In case ANYONE doubted how real this thing is, you can bet your knickers that the opposition to ESG, The Great Reset and the massive move to globalise commercialism has begun on MANY fronts. All I can see is the doubters can eat crow and pound sand, just like they deserve to. The line in the sand has been drawn, the gauntlet has been thrown down and the battle begins. I'll take my apologies publicly. Louisiana announces nearly $800 million divestment from BlackRock over ESG pushLouisiana’s state treasurer told BlackRock CEO Larry Fink on Wednesday that the state will be divesting all of its Treasury funds from the giant investment firm because of its efforts to move away from funding fossil fuel extraction.
