A truly evil man named Noah Harari, a futurist advisor to the World Economic Forum (WEF), told the forum that they must become the majority and leave the rest behind. He was saying we don’t need regular folks. We don’t need carpenters, plumbers, hairdressers, mechanics, automobile workers, farmers, and ranchers. They are all lesser lights. What we want to accomplish on this planet is all for us, Harari was saying.
For the WEF and other related organizations, this statement was acknowledging the globalist elites’ desire to activate Eugenics. It was introduced in the latter part of the 19th century and early part of the 20th century in Russia, where all science that did not fit their desired narrative was rejected. In the end, it set back Russia for decades. It is happening here in the US and will likely have the same result setting our nation back decades if we don’t stop it. Deciding that emissions of carbon dioxide are bad with no science to support it is an example of Eugenics which disregards all science it does not agree with.
It was based on the idea that there are lesser lights among us, some people with birth defects and others who frankly are just not up to snuff and need to be removed from society, or at least, measures should be taken to ensure that they never enter society.
Eugenics was a very fashionable belief then. Two American presidents, both self-professed progressives like Teddy Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, were in the thick of Eugenics. Then came a failed artist who managed to get himself to the head of Germany. He made Eugenics, or a version of it, the central organizing principle of the Third Reich.
Now, as we all know, that did not end well, so Eugenics went out of fashion, or at least the term eugenics went out of fashion but not the idea. It resurfaced in the 1950s and 1960s, this time under the guise of population control, the notion that Mr. Harari pointed out. There are just too many people in the world, and measures must be taken to ensure that we reduce the numbers. We must see to it that they’re never born in the first place or through other means.
By 1968 Paul Ehrlich had come up with the book Population Bomb. He said it was the biggest threat facing mankind. The book stated, among other things, that the planet was becoming too crowded and that we were moving beyond its carrying capacity. Five years later, the Club of Rome came out with a report titled Limits to Growth, accepting, Ehlich’s premise that there were too many people on the planet.
The book went beyond that premise to say that we were putting a strain on resources and that, ultimately, there would not be enough resources to take care of the rest of us on the earth. Between the two documents, a narrative was developed that coincided with the rise of the environmental movement ignited by Rachel Carson and her book Silent Spring. It promoted the false premise which said that trace elements of chemicals and other substances pose a threat to humanity.
By the late 1980s, we were told that we were living beyond our limits. Humans, through their use of fossil fuels, were contributing to a potentially catastrophic warming of the planet. It was presented with no scientific support. This was popularized, as we all know, by Al Gore and throughout Europe by the former Prime Minister of Sweden.
It was not a new idea; it actually had been rafting around Europe in the 19th century but not everywhere until Gore picked it up in college. While he had no scientific sophistication whatsoever, he liked what he read and decided to make it the cause of his life, and he succeeded beyond his wildest dreams.
This kind of pseudoscience was not new at all. It was introduced in Joseph Stalin’s Soviet Union in the 1930s when soviet scientist Trofim Denisovich Lysenko promoted the idea that human genetics was a bourgeois science and had to be suppressed at all costs.
For the Soviet Union, that made perfect sense because the USSR was in the midst of creating the new soviet man. That new Soviet man was to be created from scratch when according to human genetics, traits are passed from parents to biological children and so on. All of that was suppressed, and any scientist or doctor or anyone who spoke out against the suppression of the notion of human genetics lost their jobs or could wind up in the gulag somewhere. We are experiencing the same situation now as to climate change, except thus far without the gulag.
No less than Al Gore said this would require a wrenching transformation of society. Well, how do you pull off a wrenching transformation of society? It turns out this transformation was already underway. The person who should but rarely receives the credit for the new rise of the communist left in our lives is Antonio Gramsci, one of the founders of the Italian Communist Party.
Gramsci recognized that the proletariat was not about to rise up and overthrow the bourgeoisie. He had a contempt for working people, which is a constant characteristic of the left.
He came up with the idea for a long march through the institutions. That meant that society’s institutions would be infiltrated and transformed over time. These institutions would retain their names, but they would have entirely different ways and an entirely different character. These were not just universities and schools, this was, as we now know, corporate board rooms, school boards, the media, and when it finally came along, social media, all scientific publications, and professional organizations. Today primary societies for chemists, physicists, geologists, meteorologists, and architects fully support the human-caused climate change leftist lie. These organizations have been transformed from within. It all goes back to Antonio Gramsci.
It took decades, and people did not notice, like the frog in hot water. Suddenly, you recognize an organization’s name but not what they stand for. They have been infiltrated and transformed and are now self-perpetuating entities. Federal bureaucracies like NOAA, NASA, and the National Geographic Society have been transformed. Now you know why they bear minimal resemblance to what they were a few decades ago.
President Kennedy recognized what was happening, which likely led to his assassination. He said during his Presidency.
“We are inherently and historically opposed to secret societies and secret oaths and secret proceedings, but we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence. On infiltration instead of invasion on subversion instead of elections on intimidation instead of freedom of choice.
It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources for the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific, and political operations. Its preparations are concealed and not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, and no secret is revealed.
That is why the Athenian lawmaker Solon decreed it a crime for any citizen to shrink from controversy. And I am asking your help in the tremendous task of informing and alerting the American people. Confident that with your help, man will be what he was born to be, free and independent.”
This major takeover of our freedom was enabled by the Lysenko-type idea of human-caused global warming. It has moved society toward communism in the United States and throughout Europe.
One of the essential elements of this is the suppression of dissent; no one is allowed to call this into question. If you do, and if you are a researcher applying for a federal grant to study some aspect of the climate not tied to the accepted fraud, or if you have a public record of being in opposition, no grants will be possible.
Requiring that we all walk in lockstep is in the spirit of Lysenkoism. Gradually legitimate scientific inquiry ends. Fortunately, there is only a numerically small group of people who have benefited immensely while the rest have suffered.
One of the most effective weapons the political left possesses today is its perceived appearance of popular support when it instead depends entirely on institutional authorities to force its delusions down American throats. The left’s control is a complete and utter charade.
JB Shurk writing at American Thinker on August 19, 2022, said:
“the vast majority of Americans are worried not about quixotic battles against a naturally changing climate or sex changes, but rather about the harsh realities of inflation, illegal immigration, and out-of-control crime. “….
“The political Establishment in D.C. and their enablers in the mainstream media dedicate all their time and resources to promoting racial conflict, job-killing globalism, open borders, and criminal conspiracies against President Trump!“
In other words, the prevalence of the left’s worldview is an illusion constructed on lies told over and over by people in positions of power, authority, and influence. When the left’s sacred tenets are questioned, belittled, or mocked, their legitimacy unravels quickly.
We remember when the Center for Disease Control (CDC ) was respected as a venerable institution for scientific study. Now, its partisan agendas and politicization render it untrustworthy. One day, the mainstream news is trusted as a viable defender of the people against government corruption, and now, it is widely understood as an engine for propaganda.
While we do have a steep hill to climb to return to the nation envisioned by our founders, we will make it back. Tyrants who ignore the wishes of their citizens lose in the end. In part two on America Out Loud this week, I will expose the light at the end of the tunnel.
