A World of Make Believe

"With the advent of social media and the reign of the Internet, controlling consciousness is now child’s play."

Buffett’s Grandson Seeks Own Investment Route: Social Change

“It’s about taking the potential for capitalism to the next level.”

Rainbow Sparkle Ponies

"Illiteracy obscures the fact that over-the-rainbow puffery (like the exaggerations exhorted by the financial elite at COP21) is doomed to come crashing to earth–like all pyramid schemes do; immaturity allows the gullible to be hoodwinked into believing that somehow this time it will turn out differently."

Fortuna

"In 2016, the new “new world economy” (aka “New Economy”) pyramid scheme to pick the pockets of national treasuries worldwide is a bit more sophisticated than the one peddled by Augie Delgado twenty years earlier, which is not surprising given this newer New Age con is being promoted by Bill Gates."

Pathways to Spectacle | Consumerism as “Activism”

"The cult of consumerism, through which 350, Avaaz and Purpose adherents identify with their brand, is similar to religion, in that becoming a follower is an act of faith."

HEART OF DARKNESS

"Unlike the spontaneous resistance by students and marginalized sectors of urban society to this total bureaucratic domination in the 1960s, consumer reaction to mass murder and dispossession in the 21st Century is itself choreographed by the ruling class."

NPIC: The Advocacy of the Neoliberalisation of Nature

"Most recently international support has been given for an experimental accountancy approach which shifts uneasily from physical measurement into monetary valuation, where apparently all the world's assets (whether human, natural or social) are to be conceptualised as capital to be made commensurable and traded-off one for the other as necessary... In the world of the mainstream economists and accountants, everything has a price and nothing is sacrosanct or inviolable."

COP21: Privatization Strategy

"The privatization of public process and policy — which led to economic collapse in the US, and bank bailouts from the U.S. Treasury that eviscerated the general welfare — is now being enacted at the UN. The Clean Energy Ponzi Scheme and the ‘new economy’ — false hope marketed for the financial elite by Havas, Avaaz and 350 — now has its sights set on privatizing the planet."

COP21 Coup D’état – A Toast to Our Annihilation

“The more he identifies with the dominant images of need, the less he understands his own life and his own desires. The spectacle’s estrangement from the acting subject is expressed by the fact that the individual’s gestures are no longer his own; they are the gestures of someone else who represents them to him.” — Guy Debord, Society of Spectacle

Clean Energy Ponzi Scheme

"All cons begin with a small truth, followed by a big lie. The bigger the lie, the more they believe. By supporting the ‘new economy’ and ‘clean energy’ cons, compromised NGOs demonstrate that sustaining privatization is child’s play."
