GLOBALIST CENSORSHIP AND PROPAGANDA CANNOT STOP THE JUGGERNAUT OF TRUTH

by HN

Despite three years of ever-increasing aggressive censorship and disinformation propaganda peddled as “truth”, the globalist puppet masters have failed to quell the voices of those seeking freedom and exposing the tyrannical “Build Back Better” Great Reset.

Over one million truckers have descended upon Ottawa, the capital of Canada to put an end to the Nuremberg Code violating COVID-19 mandates. Still, Justin Trudeau has doubled down for his elite masters at the UN/World Economic Forum, attempting to gaslight the world into believing their evil lies.
For those who have eyes to see, reading glasses are not necessary to view the obvious attempts to discredit those speaking the truth about the elite’s genocide of the public.

Those behind the UN/Davos Satanic revolution against humanity are easy to spot. They all sing the same talking points.

Whether it is open borders Build Back Better Joe Biden, Justin Trudeau, or any of the puppets of the Davos globalists tapped to destroy the world's economy, the globalists COVID bioweapon cooked up by Fauci, Daszak and Bill Gates was designed to terrify the population into compliance with their own slavery and demise.

The people were told there would be no end to COVID until a “vaccine” was developed. Dr. Fauci lied, telling us it would take a year, but the injections were already developed. Successful treatments like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin were banned. Physicians and pharmacists lost their licenses if they dared to successfully treat patients. To call this medical tyranny would be an understatement. It is mass murder.

Then came the deadly mRNA injections. To fit the medical mafia narrative, the CDC changed the definition of a vaccine. A true vaccine immunizes an individual against a disease and stops transmission to others. The COVID shots do neither. Yet these deadly dangerous injections have been mandated. People continue to be fired if they do not take the deadly COVID shots.

Systematic corruption at the UN/WHO/CDC and hospital administrators, doctors and nurses worldwide have colluded to execute the greatest act of medical mass murder and genocide in history.

Thousands of doctors and nurses have resigned rather that submit to Bill Gate’s and the Fauci Crime Crew. Instead of raising concern about the dangers, the corporate controlled media continues to demonize those who do not submit to medical tyranny and social media bans and censors them.
Dr. Robert Malone, the inventor of the mRNA technology was banned from twitter and censored for exposing the dangers of the deadly shots.

Informed consent has been denied. The fact that more than 2 million Americans have been injured and more than 20,000 killed by the mRNA injections as reported to VAERS is being suppressed by the mainstream media and censored by Big Tech. These are not the actions of "experts" working to save lives, but rather propagandists diligently working to suppress the deadly consequences of taking the jab.
The fact is, like COVID-19, the "vaccine" is yet another deadly bioweapon. The entire COVID-19 scamdemic is a ruse to depopulate and deindustrialize the planet and to collectivize global resources under a United Nation Agenda 21 takeover.

As a result of the lockdowns and supply chain shortages more than 20 million people in the third world have starved to death. Africa and Australia are still in lockdown. The lockdown of society was directly modeled after the globalist Rockefeller Foundation’s 2010 Operation Lockstep scenario. The plan is to wreck the economies of the world, depopulate and consolidate under UN control. This blueprint was followed to the letter and enforced with totalitarian efficiency. People who defied government mandates were fined and even imprisoned. Dangerous criminals were released in fear of contracting COVID. Democrat governors forced COVID patients into nursing homes.

These ploys were all acts of war against We the People.

Nation killer George Soros’ assisted the election of over 1,000 District Attorneys in the last 2 years. Soros also has over 20 Attorney generals in his pocket to wage war on We the People. As a result, a revolving door system was developed allowing murderers, rapists and other violent felons to be released without bail, many have committed more crimes.

All the king's and horses and all the king's men cannot stop the juggernaut of truth exposing the First Global Revolution of the elite. The UN/Davos elite's quiet war on humanity has become too loud and the sleeping giant is awakening. Klaus Schwab's puppets who attended his Global Leader for the Future school have all played vital roles in forwarding the globalists Great Reset Build Back Better depopulation/deindustrialization agenda.

Schwab’s army of tyrants like Justin Trudeau try to spin the truth to downplay their tyranny.  But the tyranny can no longer be hidden. Trudeau, who went into hiding with commandos fearing for his safety has called the million truckers descending on the Canadian capital as “fringe” resisters and “racists”.

Like Ray Epps and the many Federal agents that organized and provocateured the chaos on January 6, 2021, peaceful Canadians protesting the globalist run COVID-19 tyranny must be vigilant against similar false flags terror attacks, like the democrats assault on our Republic on January 6 that was blamed on Patriots addressing their grievances regarding election fraud. The democrats stole the election for the globalists. The events of January 6 effectively stopped further investigation into the Biden coup.

False flag attacks are one of the globalists favorite deceptions to hoodwink the public and turn the tide of public opinion to achieve their aims. As lessons learned on January 6th, Canadians Patriots must be peaceful and vigilant in their protests and be wary of provocateurs and enemy agents seeking to label and blame protestors as “terrorists” or “insurrectionists”.

While the true insurrectionists are democrats, Trudeau and all of the globalists' puppets, like Biden, who vainly continue their ever-failing attempts gas light the people into compliance and submission to the United Nations assault on freedom and national sovereignty.  

The entire world is engaged in a silent war fought with quiet weapons launched by the UN/Davos/World Economic Forum global elite. This fact becomes more and more obvious as the censorship and propaganda increases. The New World Order New York Times even told readers that it was wrong--even dangerous to do research into the origins of COVID and the deadly shots. This and the censorship of doctors and scientists only advanced the people's curiosity to do the research and billions are.   

More and more, humanity is awakening to the World Economic Forum Davos' treachery and the many crimes of politicians prosecuting their war on we the people. The globalists bioweapons, acts of economic warfare, false flag terrorism no longer fool the masses. The emperor has no clothes, putting the globalists in a Catch 22 scenario. The more COVID tyranny they implement, the more lockdowns, supply chain shortages, acts of economic warfare and terrorism, the more the culprits behind the scamdemic are exposed.

The more they censor, the more the people stand up against them. In the end, the UN Agenda 21 depopulation/deindustrialization agenda will fail.

There is no way to stop the juggernaut of truth that continues to smash the UN elite’s genocidal war on humanity. Build Back Better means slavery and genocide and billions are waking up this fact every day. The Great Reset is the globalist’s Final Revolution. A revolution against humanity itself. It is called Agenda 21.

Trudeau and other puppet politicians of the UN/World Economic Forum across the world continue to push Agenda 21 like drug dealers peddle their poisons. But all are getting serious push back from the people who are fast awakening to their ever-growing acts of tyranny. And rightly so.

Ten years ago, when I warned of the New World Order depopulation agenda, many I know scoffed at the thought, despite the decades of documents that prove the elite’s intentions. Today, those who scoffed are veraciously researching documents like SILENT WEAPONS FOR QUIET WARS, THE REPORT FROM IRON MOUNTAIN, OPERATION LOCKSTEP, THE FIRST GLOBAL REVOLUTION, CRIMSON CONTAGION, EVENT 201 and many others.

The people are waking up signaling more and more that the elite are losing. And when the globalist controlled left are losing, they always put the race card into play. This is no secret. Al Sharpton makes a living as a leftist race baiter and propagandist.

Still the left continues to ridicule and attempt to gas light the public, thinking they are dumb animals. Sadly, some are. The elite call them “beasts of burden and steaks on the table by choice and consent”. But more and more these “dumb animals” are waking up.

It is obvious to the entire world that the left has embraced all aspects of the COVID cult. They virtuously follow all mandates and directives, while shaming and vilifying those who understand there is a war on human freedom. In my estimation 20-30% of the world are completely brainwashed by nearly 3 years of 24/7 COVID-19 fear porn propaganda. These poor souls have forever lost their minds.

COVID mass formation psychosis, mass media manipulation and trauma-based mind control has divided the world between those who recognize tyranny and fight for their rights and those, like Aldous Huxley described in his Final Revolution talk at Berkeley in 1962, who “embrace their servitude”, becoming submissive, obedient slaves.

Klaus Schwab, George Soros, Bill Gates, Dr. Anthony Fauci, Dr. Peter Daszak, Joe Biden and all the traitors will be held responsible for their genocidal crimes, but they will do their best to take the world down with them. These Malthusian control freaks are malevolent psychopaths, whose only focus is enslaving the world and massively depopulating the planet by 80% by 2030.

Playing the race card is a long-used democrat/leftist tactic. But using the race card to spin the COVID tyranny instituted by Trudeau and other globalist tyrants following the Rockefeller Foundation’s Operation Lockstep to the letter is an act of desperation. Face it, Trudeau, Biden, the democrats and leftist leaders across the world are all pushing the UN Agenda 21 Build Back Better Great Reset.

They have wagered all their chips on this silent war against humanity to foster the destruction of society, to Build Back Better, creating a Great Reset of neo-feudal serfdom, misery and death. But they are failing. And like an animal trapped in a corner, the globalists are now at their most dangerous.

They will no doubt stage false flag terror attacks on infrastructure and blame it on those seeking freedom. This is what they do. Don’t take the bait.

Never forget that Osama Bin Laden was a CIA asset. He became the boogey man after Saddam Hussein was deposed. As the world searched for the terrorist, CNN interviewed him at his “secret hideout.”

So, the lies and propaganda is nothing new. Remember 9/11/01 resulted in the 20 year “War on Terror” that was based on lies. Weapons of mass deception. Like GHW Bush’s lies about Iraqi’s taking babies out of incubators to let them die on the floor to gain support for the Persian Gulf War, or GW Bush’s “weapons of mass destruction” that did not exist, the COVID-19 scamdemic, and many of the transformative events in world history were also based on lies.

The fight for freedom has only just begun and worst days are still ahead. But realize this: The global elite are losing on every front. And it shows. Big Tech and the media are absolutely naked in their dismissal of the truth while they promote lies and censoring all who expose them. The dinosaur media is fast becoming extinct. For those who have eyes to see it is a delightful sight, albeit a dangerous one.

As we move forward, every lie, deception and false flag act of terror will be exposed. Their tricks no longer work on those who have done the research and the know who the enemies are.

The massive growth of HowardNema.com since the November 3, 2020, coup clearly illustrates that people will seek the truth elsewhere if they cannot find it on the mainstream media. HowardNema.com went from 20,000 hits per months to more than 4,000,000 hits per month. This is evidence that the People know the media is lying to them. They are thirsting for the truth. Here it is.

The more the globalists mandate, the more they censor, the more patriots they attack, the more join their ranks and the more the elite reveal themselves as the psychopathic genocidal despots they are. Their increasing acts of desperation amplify their tyrannies. It is only a matter of time before the COVID-19 scamdemic depopulation agenda is fully exposed and those behind this evil war on humanity will face justice. Nothing can stop the juggernaut of truth.  Nuremberg 2.0 is coming.

THE COVID SCAMDEMIC IS A TROJAN HORSE FOR TYRANNY

 

  TRUTH TALK NEWS   21 mins ago

by HN

Build Back Better is Klaus Schwab’s Great Reset, which is a blueprint for slavery and genocide. Big Tech, Big Pharma, the media, the DNC and China have aligned with the Davos global elite to censor the truth about alternative treatments to COVID and the origins of the bioweapon cooked up by the evil Fauci and intentionally released on the public.

Millions, if not billions have entrusted their healthcare to very evil people who want to enslave and kill them. Lara Logan is right about Dr. Fauci. In fact, Fauci is worse than Dr. Joseph Mengele, but many don’t want to believe that, even as their family members and friends are maimed and killed by the deadly COVID-19 shots. 

Many across the world have embraced their servitude to these vile scumbags, because it is more frightening to believe the truth than to accept the lies. The elite know this. They are behavioral specialists, who know human nature and how to manipulate it.

“There will be, in the next generation or so, a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude, and producing dictatorship without tears, so to speak, producing a kind of painless concentration camp for entire societies, so that people will in fact have their liberties taken away from them, but will rather enjoy it, because they will be distracted from any desire to rebel by propaganda or brainwashing, or brainwashing enhanced by pharmacological methods. And this seems to be the final revolution” ― Aldous Huxley

The fact is, the COVID shots are slow kill bioweapons. Some die immediately, or soon after getting the shots. Others have serious adverse reactions. This was definitely not intended. The silent weapon injections were designed to kill over time to foster “plausible deniabilty”, but millions have already died from the shots. 

As of this report, the CDC has reduced the VAERS reports of deaths after vaccination from over 18,000 to 10,000.  This is fraud.  The death count has been reduced for political purposes. Big Pharma and politicians do not care how many people are maimed or injured by the shots. They just want to force everyone to take them. The fact is studies suggest 99% of adverse reactions and deaths are NOT reported to VAERS.  This means more than a hundred thousand people have died in the U.S. after taking the shot.  These "experts" and "politicians" are genocidal mass murderers. The COVID bioweapon and the injections are crimes against humanity punishable by death.

Months and years of heartache will befall the world as the injections will cause a spike protein to attack the vital organs of those injected over time. Dr. Lee Merrit and Dr. Peter McCullough and others the Big Pharma controlled media calls “medical disinformation” exposed this more than a year ago!

The Rockefeller Foundation even addressed this, creating a FACT CHECKER to dispel “medical disinformation”, demonizing doctors and scientists exposing this as “quacks” and conspiracy theorists” But it is all true.

THE UN/DAVOS GROUP ARE INTENTIONALLY KILLING US! DENIAL IS NOT A RIVER IN EGYPT!

The only way to end the mass psychosis the elite have bestowed upon us (because they care about our health and welfare so much), is to recognize that they are liars and control freaks. They have declared war on humanity using a Pavlovian slave training psyop instituted via 24/7 mass media fear porn propaganda spewed by highly paid off “influencers”, like politicians, sports and media figures and celebrities Fear is the weapon of criminals, totalitarians, murderers, rapists and kidnappers.

Those behind the scamdemic are all of these things. We are being assaulted, kidnapped, impoverished, horded, isolated, raped and murdered by our government at the behest of international elitists who have corrupt regulators in their pockets advancing the Big Pharma war on we the people using an intentional totalitarian approach to “healthcare” to forcefully take control of society and deindustrialize America. Not rocket science. We are living through it. Denying all of this will only make matters worse.

Everything the elite have planned for more than 100 years is coming to fruition. They want a borderless world ruled by “benevolent despotism”. That’s what the elite call it. The COVID scamdemic totalitarian take over that began in 2020 stems from the Rockefeller Foundation’s Operation Lockstep/Event 201 blueprint for global enslavement.

WAKE UP! 2 weeks to flatten the curb has become forever!

The mass psychosis has infected a sizable percentage of sheeple worldwide who continue to comply with their own economic destruction and demise while demonizing those who do not submit. This is an age-old tactic the elite employ to keep us divided and our attention off them. They use race, class, sex, sexual preference and now COVID-19 injection status to divide and conquer us. Once again, this is not rocket science!

Love and Faith in God is the answer, not blind obedience to evil. I have noticed that fear overcomes those who have an absence or weakness of faith. God only helps those who help themselves. Surrender to God, not the government and evil, billionaire psychopaths like Bill Gates.

Bill Gates, George Soros, the World Economic Forum, the UN/World Health Organization, the DNC and other Malthusian globalist-controlled regulators, governors, mayors and prosecutors have signed on to the evil, corrupt anti-freedom COVID-19 depopulation/deindustrialization agenda to destroy American and the West and to create a totalitarian socialist society, where all aspects of human life are controlled by Davos “stakeholders” and unelected bureaucrats!

DO NOT BE DECEIEVED!

PEACEFUL MASS NON-COMPLIANCE IS OUR ONLY HOPE!

THE GREAT RESET: HOW A 'MANAGERIAL REVOLUTION' WAS PLOTTED 80 YEARS AGO BY A TROTSKYIST-TURNED CIA NEOCON

THE GREAT RESET: HOW A ‘MANAGERIAL REVOLUTION’ WAS PLOTTED 80 YEARS AGO BY A TROTSKYIST-TURNED CIA NEOCON – HowardNema.com

The roots of the Great Reset agenda can very clearly be traced back to 80 years ago, when James Burnham, wrote a book on his vision for “The Managerial Revolution,” Cynthia Chung writes.

Klaus Schwab, the architect of the World Economic Forum (f. 1971), a leading, if not the leading, influencer and funder for what will set the course for world economic policy outside of government, has been the cause of much concern and suspicion since his announcement of “The Great Reset” agenda at the 50th annual meeting of the WEF in June 2020.

The Great Reset initiative is a somewhat vague call for the need for global stakeholders to coordinate a simultaneous “management” of the effects of COVID-19 on the global economy, which they have eerily named as “pandenomics.” This, we are told will be the new normal, the new reality that we will have to adjust ourselves to for the foreseeable future.

It should be known that at nearly its inception, the World Economic Forum had aligned itself with the Club of Rome, a think tank with an elite membership, founded in 1968, to address the problems of mankind. It was concluded by the Club of Rome in their extremely influential “Limits to Growth,” published in 1972, that such problems could not be solved on their own terms and that all were interrelated. In 1991, Club of Rome co-founder Sir Alexander King stated in the “The First Global Revolution” (an assessment of the first 30 years of the Club of Rome) that:

“In searching for a common enemy against whom we can unite, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like, would fit the bill. In their totality and their interactions these phenomena do constitute a common threat which must be confronted by everyone together. But in designating these dangers as the enemy, we fall into the trap, which we have already warned readers about, namely mistaking symptoms for causes. All these dangers are caused by human intervention in natural processes, and it is only through changed attitudes and behaviour that they can be overcome. The real enemy then is humanity itself.” [emphasis added]

It is no surprise that with such a conclusion, part of the solution prescribed was the need for population control.

However, what forms of population control was Klaus Schwab in particular thinking of?

In the late 1960s, Schwab attended Harvard and among his teachers was Sir Henry Kissinger, whom he has described as among the top figures who have most influenced his thinking over the course of his life.

[Henry Kissinger and his former pupil, Klaus Schwab, welcome former- UK PM Ted Heath at the 1980 WEF annual meeting. Source: World Economic Forum]

To get a better idea of the kinds of influences Sir Henry Kissinger had on young Klaus Schwab, we should take a look at Kissinger’s infamous NSSM-200 report: Implications of Worldwide Population Growth for US Security and Overseas Interests, otherwise known as “The Kissinger Report,” published in 1974. This report, declassified in 1989, was instrumental in transforming US foreign policy from pro-development/pro-industry to the promotion of under-development through totalitarian methods in support of population control. Kissinger states in the report:

“… if future numbers are to be kept within reasonable bounds, it is urgent that measures to reduce fertility be started and made effective in the 1970s and 1980s …[Financial] assistance will be given to other countries, considering such factors as population growth … Food and agricultural assistance is vital for any population sensitive development strategy … Allocation of scarce resources should take account of what steps a country is taking in population control … There is an alternative view that mandatory programs may be needed ..” [emphasis added]

For Kissinger, the US foreign policy orientation was mistaken on its emphasis of ending hunger by providing the means of industrial and scientific development to poor nations, according to Kissinger, such an initiative would only lead to further global disequilibrium as the new middle classes would consume more, and waste strategic resources.

In Thomas Malthus’ “Essay on the Principle of Population” (1799), he wrote:

“We should facilitate, instead of foolishly and vainly endeavoring to impede, the operations of nature in producing this mortality; and if we dread the too frequent visitation of the horrid form of famine, we should sedulously encourage the other forms of destruction, which we compel nature to use. In our towns we should make the streets narrower, crowd more people into the houses, and court the return of the plague.” [emphasis added]

As a staunch Malthusian, Kissinger believed that “nature” had provided the means to cull the herd, and by using economic policies that utilised the courting of the plague, famine and so forth, they were simply enforcing a natural hierarchy which was required for global stability.

In addition to this extremely worrisome ideology that is only a stone’s throw away from eugenics, there has also been a great deal of disturbance over the 2016 World Economic Forum video that goes through their 8 “predictions” for how the world will change by 2030, with the slogan “You’ll own nothing, and you’ll be happy.”

It is this slogan in particular that has probably caused the most panic amongst the average person questioning what the outcome of the Great Reset will truly look like. It has also caused much confusion as to who or what is at the root in shaping this very eerie, Orwellian prediction of the future?

Many have come to think that this root is the Communist Party of China. However, whatever your thoughts may be on the Chinese government and the intentions of President Xi, the roots of the Great Reset agenda can very clearly be traced back to 80 years ago, when an American, former Trotskyist who later joined the OSS, followed by the CIA, and went on to become the founding father of neo-conservatism, James Burnham, wrote a book on his vision for “The Managerial Revolution.”

In fact, it was the ideologies of Burnham’s “The Managerial Revolution” that triggered Orwell to write his “1984”.

The Strange Case and Many Faces of James Burnham

“[James Burnham is] the real intellectual founder of the neoconservative movement and the original proselytizer, in America, of the theory of ‘totalitarianism.’”

– Christopher Hitchens, “For the Sake of Argument: Essay and Minority Reports”

It is understandably the source of some confusion as to how a former high level Trotskyist became the founder of the neo-conservative movement; with the Trotskyists calling him a traitor to his kind, and the neo-conservatives describing it as an almost road to Damascus conversion in ideology.

However, the truth of the matter is that it is neither.

That is, James Burnham never changed his beliefs and convictions at any point during his journey through Trotskyism, OSS/CIA intelligence to neo-conservatism, although he may have back-stabbed many along the way, and this two-part series will go through why this is the case.

James Burnham was born in 1905 in Chicago, Illinois, raised as a Roman Catholic, later rejecting Catholicism while studying at Princeton and professing atheism for the rest of his life until shortly before his death whereby he reportedly returned to the church. (1) He would graduate from Princeton followed by the Balliol College, Oxford University and in 1929 would become a professor in philosophy at the New York University.

It was during this period that Burnham met Sidney Hook, who was also a professor in philosophy at the New York University, and who professed to have converted Burnham to Marxism in his autobiography. In 1933, along with Sidney Hook, Burnham helped to organize the socialist organization, the American Workers Party (AWP).

It would not be long before Burnham found Trotsky’s use of “dialectical materialism” to explain the interplay between the human and the historical forces in his “History of the Russian Revolution” to be brilliant. As founder of the Red Army, Trotsky had dedicated his life to the spread of a worldwide Communist revolution, to which Stalin opposed in the form of Trotsky’s “Permanent Revolution” ideology. In this ideology, Trotskyists were tactically trained to be militant experts at infighting, infiltration and disruption.

Among these tactics was “entryism,” in which an organisation encourages its members to join another, often larger organization, in an attempt to take over said organization or convert a large portion of its membership with its own ideology and directive.

The most well-known example of this technique was named the French Turn, when French Trotskyists in 1934 infiltrated the Section Francaise de l’International Ouvriere (SFIO, French Socialist Party) with the intention of winning over the more militant elements to their side.

That same year, Trotskyists in the Communist League of America (CLA) did a French turn on the American Workers Party, in a move that elevated the AWP’s James Burnham into the role of a Trotsky lieutenant and chief adviser.

Burnham would continue the tactics of infiltrating and subverting other leftist parties and in 1935 attempted to do a French Turn on the much larger Socialist Party (SP), however, by 1937, the Trotskyists were expelled from the Socialist Party which led to the formation of the Socialist Workers Party (SWP) at the end of the year. He would resign from the SWP in April 1940, and form the Workers Party only to resign less than two months later.

Burnham remained a “Trotskyist intellectual” from 1934 until 1940, using militant Trotskyist tactics against competing Marxist movements by turning their loyalties and ransacking their best talent. Although Burnham worked six years for the Trotskyists, as the new decade began, he renounced both Trotsky and “the ‘philosophy of Marxism’ dialectical materialism” altogether.

Perhaps Burnham was aware that the walls were closing in on Trotsky, and that it would only be a matter of six months from Burnham’s first renouncement that Trotsky would be assassinated by August 1940, at his compound outside Mexico City.

In February 1940 Burnham wrote “Science and Style: A Reply to Comrade Trotsky,” in which he broke with dialectical materialism, stressing the importance of the work of Bertrand Russell and Alfred North Whitehead’s approach:

“Do you wish me to prepare a reading list, Comrade Trotsky? It would be long, ranging from the work of the brilliant mathematicians and logicians of the middle of the last century to one climax in the monumental Principia Mathematica of Russell and Whitehead (the historic turning point in modern logic), and then spreading out in many directions – one of the most fruitful represented by the scientists, mathematicians and logicians now cooperating in the new Encyclopedia of Unified Science.” [emphasis added]

He summed up his feelings in a letter of resignation from the Workers Party on May 21, 1940:

“I reject, as you know, the “philosophy of Marxism,” dialectical materialism. …

The general Marxian theory of “universal history”, to the extent that it has any empirical content, seems to me disproved by modern historical and anthropological investigation.

Marxian economics seems to me for the most part either false or obsolete or meaningless in application to contemporary economic phenomena. Those aspects of Marxian economics which retain validity do not seem to me to justify the theoretical structure of the economics.

Not only do I believe it meaningless to say that “socialism is inevitable” and false that socialism is “the only alternative to capitalism”; I consider that on the basis of the evidence now available to us a new form of exploitive society (which I call “managerial society”) is not only possible but is a more probable outcome of the present than socialism. …

On no ideological, theoretic or political ground, then, can I recognize, or do I feel, any bond or allegiance to the Workers Party (or to any other Marxist party). That is simply the case, and I can no longer pretend about it, either to myself or to others.” [emphasis added]

In 1941, Burnham would publish “The Managerial Revolution: What is Happening in the World,” bringing him fame and fortune, listed by Henry Luce’s Life magazine as one of the top 100 outstanding books of 1924-1944. (2)

The Managerial Revolution

“We cannot understand the revolution by restricting our analysis to the war [WWII]; we must understand the war as a phase in the development of the revolution.”

– James Burnham “The Managerial Revolution”

In Burnham’s “The Managerial Revolution,” he makes the case that if socialism were possible, it would have occurred as an outcome of the Bolshevik Revolution, but what happened instead was neither a reversion back to a capitalist system nor a transition to a socialist system, but rather a formation of a new organizational structure made up of an elite managerial class, the type of society he believed was in the process of replacing capitalism on a world scale.

He goes on to make the case that as seen with the transition from a feudal to a capitalist state being inevitable, so too will the transition from a capitalist to managerial state occur. And that ownership rights of production capabilities will no longer be owned by individuals but rather the state or institutions, he writes:

“Effective class domination and privilege does, it is true, require control over the instruments of production; but this need not be exercised through individual private property rights. It can be done through what might be called corporate rights, possessed not by individuals as such but by institutions: as was the case conspicuously with many societies in which a priestly class was dominant…”

Burnham proceeds to write:

“If, in a managerial society, no individuals are to hold comparable property rights, how can any group of individuals constitute a ruling class?

The answer is comparatively simple and, as already noted, not without historical analogues. The managers will exercise their control over the instruments of production and gain preference in the distribution of the products, not directly, through property rights vested in them as individuals, but indirectly, through their control of the state which in turn will own and control the instruments of production. The state – that is, the institutions which comprise the state – will, if we wish to put it that way, be the ‘property’ of the managers. And that will be quite enough to place them in the position of the ruling class.”

Burnham concedes that the ideologies required to facilitate this transition have not yet been fully worked out but goes on to say that they can be approximated:

“from several different but similar directions, by, for example: Leninism-Stalinism; fascism-nazism; and, at a more primitive level, by New Dealism and such less influential [at the time] American ideologies as ‘technocracy’. This, then, is the skeleton of the theory, expressed in the language of the struggle for power.”

This is to be sure, a rather confusing paragraph but becomes clearer when we understand it from the specific viewpoint of Burnham. As Burnham sees it, all these different avenues are methods in which to achieve his vision of a managerial society because each form stresses the importance of the state as the central coordinating power, and that such a state will be governed by his “managers”. Burnham considers the different moral implications in each scenario irrelevant, as he makes clear early on in his book, he has chosen to detach himself from such questions.

Burnham goes to explain that the support of the masses is necessary for the success of any revolution, this is why the masses must be led to believe that they will benefit from such a revolution, when in fact it is only to replace one ruling class with another and nothing changes for the underdog. He explains that this is the case with the dream of a socialist state, that the universal equality promised by socialism is just a fairy tale told to the people so that they fight for the establishment of a new ruling class, then they are told that achieving a socialist state will take many decades, and that essentially, a managerial system must be put in place in the meantime.

Burnham makes the case that this is what happened in both Nazi Germany and Bolshevik Russia:

“Nevertheless, it may still turn out that the new form of economy will be called ‘socialist.’ In those nations – Russia and Germany – which have advanced furthest toward the new [managerial] economy, ‘socialism’ or ‘national socialism’ is the term ordinarily used. The motivation for this terminology is not, naturally, the wish for scientific clarity but just the opposite. The word ‘socialism’ is used for ideological purposes in order to manipulate the favourable mass emotions attached to the historic socialist ideal of a free, classless, and international society and to hide the fact that the managerial economy is in actuality the basis for a new kind of exploiting, class society.”

Burnham continues:

“Those Nations – [Bolshevik] Russia, [Nazi] Germany and [Fascist] Italy – which have advanced furthest toward the managerial social structure are all of them, at present, totalitarian dictatorships…what distinguishes totalitarian dictatorship is the number of facets of life subject to the impact of the dictatorial rule. It is not merely political actions, in the narrower sense, that are involved; nearly every side of life, business and art and science and education and religion and recreation and morality are not merely influenced by but directly subjected to the totalitarian regime.

It should be noted that a totalitarian type of dictatorship would not have been possible in any age previous to our own. Totalitarianism presupposes the development of modern technology, especially of rapid communication and transportation. Without these latter, no government, no matter what its intentions, would have had at its disposal the physical means for coordinating so intimately so many of the aspects of life. Without rapid transportation and communication it was comparatively easy for men to keep many of their lives, out of reach of the government. This is no longer possible, or possible only to a much smaller degree, when governments today make deliberate use of the possibilities of modern technology.”

Orwell’s Second Thoughts on Burnham

Burnham would go on to state in his “The Managerial Revolution” that the Russian Revolution, WWI and its aftermath, the Versailles Treaty gave final proof that capitalist world politics could no longer work and had come to an end. He described WWI as the last war of the capitalists and WWII as the first, but not last war, of the managerial society. Burnham made it clear that many more wars would have to be fought after WWII before a managerial society could finally fully take hold.

This ongoing war would lead to the destruction of sovereign nation states, such that only a small number of great nations would survive, culminating into the nuclei of three “super-states”, which Burnham predicted would be centered around the United States, Germany and Japan. He goes on to predict that these super-states will never be able to conquer the other and will be engaged in permanent war until some unforeseeable time. He predicts that Russia would be broken in two, with the west being incorporated into the German sphere and the east into the Japanese sphere. (Note that this book was published in 1941, such that Burnham was clearly of the view that Nazi Germany and fascist Japan would be the victors of WWII.)

Burnham states that “sovereignty will be restricted to the few super-states.”

In fact, he goes so far as to state early on in his book that the managerial revolution is not a prediction of something that will occur in the future, it is something that has already begun and is in fact, in its final stages of becoming, that it has already successfully implemented itself worldwide and that the battle is essentially over.

The National Review, founded by James Burnham and William F. Buckley (more on this in part two), would like to put the veneer that although Orwell was critical of Burnham’s views that he was ultimately creatively inspired to write about it in his “1984” novel. Yes, inspired is one way to put it, or more aptly put, that he was horrified by Burnham’s vision and wrote his novel as a stark warning as to what would ultimately be the outcome of such monstrous theorizations, which he would to this day organise the zeitgeist of thought to be suspicious of anything resembling his neologisms such as “Big Brother”, “Thought Police”, “Two Minutes Hate”, “Room 101”, “memory hole”, “Newspeak”, “doublethink”, “unperson”,”thoughtcrime”, and “groupthink”.

George Orwell, (real name Eric Arthur Blair), first published his “Second Thoughts on James Burnham” in May 1946. The novel “1984” would be published in 1949.

In his essay he dissects Burnham’s proposed ideology that he outlines in his “The Managerial Revolution” and “The Machiavellians” subtitled “Defenders of Freedom.”

Orwell writes:

“It is clear that Burnham is fascinated by the spectacle of power, and that his sympathies were with Germany so long as Germany appeared to be winning the war…curiously enough, when one examines the predictions which Burnham has based on his general theory, one finds that in so far as they are verifiable, they have been falsified…It will be seen that Burnham’s predictions have not merely, when they were verifiable, turned out to be wrong, but that they have sometimes contradicted one another in a sensational way…Political predictions are usually wrong, because they are usually based on wish-thinking…Often the revealing factor is the date at which they are made…It will be seen that at each point Burnham is predicting a continuation of the thing that is happening…the tendency to do this is not simply a bad habit, like inaccuracy or exaggeration…It is a major mental disease, and its roots lie partly in cowardice and partly in the worship of power, which is not fully separable from cowardice…

Power worship blurs political judgement because it leads, almost unavoidably, to the belief that present trends will continue. Whoever is winning at the moment will always seem to be invincible. If the Japanese have conquered south Asia, then they will keep south Asia for ever, if the Germans have captured Tobruk, they will infallibly capture Cairo…The rise and fall of empires, the disappearance of cultures and religions, are expected to happen with earthquake suddenness, and processes which have barely started are talked about as though they were already at an end. Burnham’s writings are full of apocalyptic visions…Within the space of five years Burnham foretold the domination of Russia by Germany and of Germany by Russia. In each case he was obeying the same instinct: the instinct to bow down before the conqueror of the moment, to accept the existing trend as irreversible.”

Interestingly, and happily we hear, George Orwell does not take Burnham’s predictions of a managerial revolution as set in stone, but rather, has shown itself within a short period of time to be a little too full of wishful thinking and bent on worshipping the power of the moment. However, this does not mean we must not take heed to the orchestrations of such mad men.

In Part two of this series, I will discuss Burnham’s entry into the OSS then CIA, how he became the founder of the neo-conservative movement and what are the implications for today’s world, especially concerning the Great Reset initiative.

THE GREAT RESET: HOW A MANAGERIAL REVOLUTION WAS PLOTTED 80 YEARS AGO BY A TROTSKYIST-TURNED CIA NEOCON

THE GREAT RESET: HOW A ‘MANAGERIAL REVOLUTION’ WAS PLOTTED 80 YEARS AGO BY A TROTSKYIST-TURNED CIA NEOCON – HowardNema.com

The roots of the Great Reset agenda can very clearly be traced back to 80 years ago, when James Burnham, wrote a book on his vision for “The Managerial Revolution,” Cynthia Chung writes.

Klaus Schwab, the architect of the World Economic Forum (f. 1971), a leading, if not the leading, influencer and funder for what will set the course for world economic policy outside of government, has been the cause of much concern and suspicion since his announcement of “The Great Reset” agenda at the 50th annual meeting of the WEF in June 2020.

The Great Reset initiative is a somewhat vague call for the need for global stakeholders to coordinate a simultaneous “management” of the effects of COVID-19 on the global economy, which they have eerily named as “pandenomics.” This, we are told will be the new normal, the new reality that we will have to adjust ourselves to for the foreseeable future.

It should be known that at nearly its inception, the World Economic Forum had aligned itself with the Club of Rome, a think tank with an elite membership, founded in 1968, to address the problems of mankind. It was concluded by the Club of Rome in their extremely influential “Limits to Growth,” published in 1972, that such problems could not be solved on their own terms and that all were interrelated. In 1991, Club of Rome co-founder Sir Alexander King stated in the “The First Global Revolution” (an assessment of the first 30 years of the Club of Rome) that:

“In searching for a common enemy against whom we can unite, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like, would fit the bill. In their totality and their interactions these phenomena do constitute a common threat which must be confronted by everyone together. But in designating these dangers as the enemy, we fall into the trap, which we have already warned readers about, namely mistaking symptoms for causes. All these dangers are caused by human intervention in natural processes, and it is only through changed attitudes and behaviour that they can be overcome. The real enemy then is humanity itself.” [emphasis added]

It is no surprise that with such a conclusion, part of the solution prescribed was the need for population control.

However, what forms of population control was Klaus Schwab in particular thinking of?

In the late 1960s, Schwab attended Harvard and among his teachers was Sir Henry Kissinger, whom he has described as among the top figures who have most influenced his thinking over the course of his life.

To get a better idea of the kinds of influences Sir Henry Kissinger had on young Klaus Schwab, we should take a look at Kissinger’s infamous NSSM-200 report: Implications of Worldwide Population Growth for US Security and Overseas Interests, otherwise known as “The Kissinger Report,” published in 1974. This report, declassified in 1989, was instrumental in transforming US foreign policy from pro-development/pro-industry to the promotion of under-development through totalitarian methods in support of population control. Kissinger states in the report:

“… if future numbers are to be kept within reasonable bounds, it is urgent that measures to reduce fertility be started and made effective in the 1970s and 1980s …[Financial] assistance will be given to other countries, considering such factors as population growth … Food and agricultural assistance is vital for any population sensitive development strategy … Allocation of scarce resources should take account of what steps a country is taking in population control … There is an alternative view that mandatory programs may be needed ..” [emphasis added]

For Kissinger, the US foreign policy orientation was mistaken on its emphasis of ending hunger by providing the means of industrial and scientific development to poor nations, according to Kissinger, such an initiative would only lead to further global disequilibrium as the new middle classes would consume more, and waste strategic resources.

In Thomas Malthus’ “Essay on the Principle of Population” (1799), he wrote:

“We should facilitate, instead of foolishly and vainly endeavoring to impede, the operations of nature in producing this mortality; and if we dread the too frequent visitation of the horrid form of famine, we should sedulously encourage the other forms of destruction, which we compel nature to use. In our towns we should make the streets narrower, crowd more people into the houses, and court the return of the plague.” [emphasis added]

As a staunch Malthusian, Kissinger believed that “nature” had provided the means to cull the herd, and by using economic policies that utilised the courting of the plague, famine and so forth, they were simply enforcing a natural hierarchy which was required for global stability.

In addition to this extremely worrisome ideology that is only a stone’s throw away from eugenics, there has also been a great deal of disturbance over the 2016 World Economic Forum video that goes through their 8 “predictions” for how the world will change by 2030, with the slogan “You’ll own nothing, and you’ll be happy.”

It is this slogan in particular that has probably caused the most panic amongst the average person questioning what the outcome of the Great Reset will truly look like. It has also caused much confusion as to who or what is at the root in shaping this very eerie, Orwellian prediction of the future?

Many have come to think that this root is the Communist Party of China. However, whatever your thoughts may be on the Chinese government and the intentions of President Xi, the roots of the Great Reset agenda can very clearly be traced back to 80 years ago, when an American, former Trotskyist who later joined the OSS, followed by the CIA, and went on to become the founding father of neo-conservatism, James Burnham, wrote a book on his vision for “The Managerial Revolution.”

In fact, it was the ideologies of Burnham’s “The Managerial Revolution” that triggered Orwell to write his “1984”.

The Strange Case and Many Faces of James Burnham

“[James Burnham is] the real intellectual founder of the neoconservative movement and the original proselytizer, in America, of the theory of ‘totalitarianism.’”

– Christopher Hitchens, “For the Sake of Argument: Essay and Minority Reports”

It is understandably the source of some confusion as to how a former high level Trotskyist became the founder of the neo-conservative movement; with the Trotskyists calling him a traitor to his kind, and the neo-conservatives describing it as an almost road to Damascus conversion in ideology.

However, the truth of the matter is that it is neither.

That is, James Burnham never changed his beliefs and convictions at any point during his journey through Trotskyism, OSS/CIA intelligence to neo-conservatism, although he may have back-stabbed many along the way, and this two-part series will go through why this is the case.

James Burnham was born in 1905 in Chicago, Illinois, raised as a Roman Catholic, later rejecting Catholicism while studying at Princeton and professing atheism for the rest of his life until shortly before his death whereby he reportedly returned to the church. (1) He would graduate from Princeton followed by the Balliol College, Oxford University and in 1929 would become a professor in philosophy at the New York University.

It was during this period that Burnham met Sidney Hook, who was also a professor in philosophy at the New York University, and who professed to have converted Burnham to Marxism in his autobiography. In 1933, along with Sidney Hook, Burnham helped to organize the socialist organization, the American Workers Party (AWP).

It would not be long before Burnham found Trotsky’s use of “dialectical materialism” to explain the interplay between the human and the historical forces in his “History of the Russian Revolution” to be brilliant. As founder of the Red Army, Trotsky had dedicated his life to the spread of a worldwide Communist revolution, to which Stalin opposed in the form of Trotsky’s “Permanent Revolution” ideology. In this ideology, Trotskyists were tactically trained to be militant experts at infighting, infiltration and disruption.

Among these tactics was “entryism,” in which an organisation encourages its members to join another, often larger organization, in an attempt to take over said organization or convert a large portion of its membership with its own ideology and directive.

The most well-known example of this technique was named the French Turn, when French Trotskyists in 1934 infiltrated the Section Francaise de l’International Ouvriere (SFIO, French Socialist Party) with the intention of winning over the more militant elements to their side.

That same year, Trotskyists in the Communist League of America (CLA) did a French turn on the American Workers Party, in a move that elevated the AWP’s James Burnham into the role of a Trotsky lieutenant and chief adviser.

Burnham would continue the tactics of infiltrating and subverting other leftist parties and in 1935 attempted to do a French Turn on the much larger Socialist Party (SP), however, by 1937, the Trotskyists were expelled from the Socialist Party which led to the formation of the Socialist Workers Party (SWP) at the end of the year. He would resign from the SWP in April 1940, and form the Workers Party only to resign less than two months later.

Burnham remained a “Trotskyist intellectual” from 1934 until 1940, using militant Trotskyist tactics against competing Marxist movements by turning their loyalties and ransacking their best talent. Although Burnham worked six years for the Trotskyists, as the new decade began, he renounced both Trotsky and “the ‘philosophy of Marxism’ dialectical materialism” altogether.

Perhaps Burnham was aware that the walls were closing in on Trotsky, and that it would only be a matter of six months from Burnham’s first renouncement that Trotsky would be assassinated by August 1940, at his compound outside Mexico City.

In February 1940 Burnham wrote “Science and Style: A Reply to Comrade Trotsky,” in which he broke with dialectical materialism, stressing the importance of the work of Bertrand Russell and Alfred North Whitehead’s approach:

“Do you wish me to prepare a reading list, Comrade Trotsky? It would be long, ranging from the work of the brilliant mathematicians and logicians of the middle of the last century to one climax in the monumental Principia Mathematica of Russell and Whitehead (the historic turning point in modern logic), and then spreading out in many directions – one of the most fruitful represented by the scientists, mathematicians and logicians now cooperating in the new Encyclopedia of Unified Science.” [emphasis added]

He summed up his feelings in a letter of resignation from the Workers Party on May 21, 1940:

“I reject, as you know, the “philosophy of Marxism,” dialectical materialism. …

The general Marxian theory of “universal history”, to the extent that it has any empirical content, seems to me disproved by modern historical and anthropological investigation.

Marxian economics seems to me for the most part either false or obsolete or meaningless in application to contemporary economic phenomena. Those aspects of Marxian economics which retain validity do not seem to me to justify the theoretical structure of the economics.

Not only do I believe it meaningless to say that “socialism is inevitable” and false that socialism is “the only alternative to capitalism”; I consider that on the basis of the evidence now available to us a new form of exploitive society (which I call “managerial society”) is not only possible but is a more probable outcome of the present than socialism. …

On no ideological, theoretic or political ground, then, can I recognize, or do I feel, any bond or allegiance to the Workers Party (or to any other Marxist party). That is simply the case, and I can no longer pretend about it, either to myself or to others.” [emphasis added]

In 1941, Burnham would publish “The Managerial Revolution: What is Happening in the World,” bringing him fame and fortune, listed by Henry Luce’s Life magazine as one of the top 100 outstanding books of 1924-1944. (2)

The Managerial Revolution

“We cannot understand the revolution by restricting our analysis to the war [WWII]; we must understand the war as a phase in the development of the revolution.”

– James Burnham “The Managerial Revolution”

In Burnham’s “The Managerial Revolution,” he makes the case that if socialism were possible, it would have occurred as an outcome of the Bolshevik Revolution, but what happened instead was neither a reversion back to a capitalist system nor a transition to a socialist system, but rather a formation of a new organizational structure made up of an elite managerial class, the type of society he believed was in the process of replacing capitalism on a world scale.

He goes on to make the case that as seen with the transition from a feudal to a capitalist state being inevitable, so too will the transition from a capitalist to managerial state occur. And that ownership rights of production capabilities will no longer be owned by individuals but rather the state or institutions, he writes:

“Effective class domination and privilege does, it is true, require control over the instruments of production; but this need not be exercised through individual private property rights. It can be done through what might be called corporate rights, possessed not by individuals as such but by institutions: as was the case conspicuously with many societies in which a priestly class was dominant…”

Burnham proceeds to write:

“If, in a managerial society, no individuals are to hold comparable property rights, how can any group of individuals constitute a ruling class?

The answer is comparatively simple and, as already noted, not without historical analogues. The managers will exercise their control over the instruments of production and gain preference in the distribution of the products, not directly, through property rights vested in them as individuals, but indirectly, through their control of the state which in turn will own and control the instruments of production. The state – that is, the institutions which comprise the state – will, if we wish to put it that way, be the ‘property’ of the managers. And that will be quite enough to place them in the position of the ruling class.”

Burnham concedes that the ideologies required to facilitate this transition have not yet been fully worked out but goes on to say that they can be approximated:

“from several different but similar directions, by, for example: Leninism-Stalinism; fascism-nazism; and, at a more primitive level, by New Dealism and such less influential [at the time] American ideologies as ‘technocracy’. This, then, is the skeleton of the theory, expressed in the language of the struggle for power.”

This is to be sure, a rather confusing paragraph but becomes clearer when we understand it from the specific viewpoint of Burnham. As Burnham sees it, all these different avenues are methods in which to achieve his vision of a managerial society because each form stresses the importance of the state as the central coordinating power, and that such a state will be governed by his “managers”. Burnham considers the different moral implications in each scenario irrelevant, as he makes clear early on in his book, he has chosen to detach himself from such questions.

Burnham goes to explain that the support of the masses is necessary for the success of any revolution, this is why the masses must be led to believe that they will benefit from such a revolution, when in fact it is only to replace one ruling class with another and nothing changes for the underdog. He explains that this is the case with the dream of a socialist state, that the universal equality promised by socialism is just a fairy tale told to the people so that they fight for the establishment of a new ruling class, then they are told that achieving a socialist state will take many decades, and that essentially, a managerial system must be put in place in the meantime.

Burnham makes the case that this is what happened in both Nazi Germany and Bolshevik Russia:

“Nevertheless, it may still turn out that the new form of economy will be called ‘socialist.’ In those nations – Russia and Germany – which have advanced furthest toward the new [managerial] economy, ‘socialism’ or ‘national socialism’ is the term ordinarily used. The motivation for this terminology is not, naturally, the wish for scientific clarity but just the opposite. The word ‘socialism’ is used for ideological purposes in order to manipulate the favourable mass emotions attached to the historic socialist ideal of a free, classless, and international society and to hide the fact that the managerial economy is in actuality the basis for a new kind of exploiting, class society.”

Burnham continues:

“Those Nations – [Bolshevik] Russia, [Nazi] Germany and [Fascist] Italy – which have advanced furthest toward the managerial social structure are all of them, at present, totalitarian dictatorships…what distinguishes totalitarian dictatorship is the number of facets of life subject to the impact of the dictatorial rule. It is not merely political actions, in the narrower sense, that are involved; nearly every side of life, business and art and science and education and religion and recreation and morality are not merely influenced by but directly subjected to the totalitarian regime.

It should be noted that a totalitarian type of dictatorship would not have been possible in any age previous to our own. Totalitarianism presupposes the development of modern technology, especially of rapid communication and transportation. Without these latter, no government, no matter what its intentions, would have had at its disposal the physical means for coordinating so intimately so many of the aspects of life. Without rapid transportation and communication it was comparatively easy for men to keep many of their lives, out of reach of the government. This is no longer possible, or possible only to a much smaller degree, when governments today make deliberate use of the possibilities of modern technology.”

He described WWI as the last war of the capitalists and WWII as the first, but not last war, of the managerial society.
