Technology is the tool being used so successfully by the Power Elites to control the masses. This intersection of technology and power (government and corporate) needs to be examined and understood if we are to protect ourselves and our families, and resist the transformation of human civilization.
On the Technocracy News website is a great Technocracy Quick Start Guide that explains what technocracy is, what its goals are, and gives a brief outline of its history. I highly recommend reading it, and exploring their website.
What is Technocracy? Technocracy is a movement, an economic system, and a proposed form of government, that started in the 1930s at Columbia University. It is also a form of social engineering. Its primary goal is to replace free enterprise and capitalism with a resource-based system using energy credits as its basic accounting units, rather than traditional forms of currency. (Does this sound familiar? It is found in the carbon tax / cap-and-trade schemes of the climate change enthusiasts.)
This new economic system would be run by technocrats - scientists and other so-called "experts" - who would control 100% of the means of production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. (Sounds similar to Marxism, doesn't it?)
In a more dystopian twist, the "experts" running the system would include artificial intelligence and computer algorithms making many of the decisions, rather than actual people.
A major goal of this new economic system is sustainable development, also known as the "Green Economy." (Another term that should sound familiar.)
Under this new economic system, cities would be retrofitted into "Smart Cities" (yet another familiar term if you are paying attention) with massive surveillance systems used to control the populace. (Sounds kind of like a Police State, huh?)
Another goal is the end of rural living, as everyone will be forced to live in these smart cities. Yes, that means you. At least that is their plan.
Social credit systems, similar to what is already being used by the Chinese, will be global. Your ability to get a job, get an education, afford a home, get medical care, even to get married or have children, will depend on maintaining a favorable social score. Your level of Internet access will even be determined by your social score, as will your ability to travel.
National borders will become obsolete. In fact, the very concept of a nation-state will come to an end.
The plan is to eventually do away with elected governments and constitutions. Elected politicians will be obsolete, which sounds good until you remember that they will be replaced with unelected, unaccountable technocrats, artificial intelligence, and algorithms.
We are talking about a Scientific Dictatorship in charge of 100% of the economy, political system, and legal system. And, remember, we are NOT supposed to question Science.
Should we abandon technology? No. The problem isn't technology. Technology is only the tool. Blaming technology for the actions of the Power Elite makes as little sense as blaming the gun for the action of the criminal. Besides, the genie has already escaped the bottle, and there is no putting it back.
We need to understand what is being done to us, and how it is being done. And then we need to focus our efforts against those people trying to control us with technology and social engineering. (There is also an important-to-understand concept called Mass Formation Psychosis which will be the topic of a future article.)
Who are the Power Elite? In short, they are the "bad guys." They are the ones trying to control the masses for their own profit and power.
Power Elite is a term first used in the 1950s by the American sociologist C. Wright Mills to describe a loose-knit group of government, military, and corporate leaders who are the center of wealth and power in the USA, and therefore tend to dominate American political policies.
Over the decades, the USA Power Elite have increasingly cooperated with the Power Elite from other Western Nations to push a globalist, technocratic agenda. Since at least the 1990s, China has used their money and access to their vast markets to exert influence over the Power Elite, a situation made even easier by the Power Elites' admiration for the Chinese system of highly centralized, authoritarian control. The type of control they want to implement in the USA and throughout the world.
The Power Elite are fractionally a very small segment of the population, yet they control a vast amount of wealth and power. And they have many "useful tools" on their side in academia, the media, union leadership, throughout pop culture, and amongst the many "social justice" warriors.
