As the insidious World Economic Forum’s (WEF) summer conference in China comes to an end, it’s clear that it was a festival of all the most woke and anti-freedom ideas from the globalist elite.
The trend of this summer conference—Annual Meeting of the New Champions (AMNC)—was explicitly authoritarian, which is not surprising considering it took place in China, which is ruled by the ultra-authoritarian and mass-murdering Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
The WEF conference pandered to the CCP, including featuring the titular CCP head of government, Premier Li Qiang, as an opening speaker. Listening to WEF’s Klaus Schwab describe Li Qiang, one would think the latter a champion of innovation and rights instead of a top official of the most murderous government in history. Who cares about Uyghurs or religious and political dissidents? WEF is focused on building a world where you “own nothing, have no privacy and enjoy it.” And the CCP is certainly an expert on that.
As part of AMNC, WEF released report on Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs). WEF previously laid out its plan for a digital ID tied to money, a China-like social credit score. Such a digital ID would be required for activities including travel, owning and using electronic devices, shopping, social media, voting, and healthcare treatment and insurance. Did you call a biological man “he” instead of “she” on Twitter? Did you attend an event not approved by the government? No shopping or healthcare for you. The new summary:
The exploration of central bank digital currencies (CBDC) has gained significant momentum worldwide. With over 100 countries actively engaged in CBDC research and development, there is growing recognition of CBDCs as transformative tools in the future of digital payments. To ensure successful implementation and promote interoperability, global coordination becomes paramount.
