'You Will Own Nothing And Be Happy.' 8 New Predictions from WEF
Beethoven once said there is no better mission than to approach Divinity and relay that message back to mankind. That is the World Economic Forum, Doing God's work.
Nearly a decade ago, the WEF made a video '8 Predictions for the World in 2030,' the World Economic Forum where they cover a range of topics from the environment to technology.
I don't want to beat a dead horse because the WEF takes shit from everyone nowadays. (Yes, they're bribing me to say that).
But hey, let's take a peek into their supposed "bright" future.
1. All products will have become services
"I don't own anything. I don't own a car. I don't own a house. I don't own any appliances or any clothes,"
- Danish politician Ida Auken describing the WEF's vision
According to the WEF, by 2030, we'll all be using products as services. So instead of buying a car, you'll pay to rent one when needed. And instead of owning a house more of us will live in shared apartments.
This becomes all the more terrifying now that investment bank Blackstone was buying up real estate worldwide to offer "housing as a service."
It's not all bad news. The WEF predicts that we'll have more free time because we won't have to spend it working to pay for everything.
But to me, the loss of ownership doesn't sound like a net gain.
Oligarchs will still own everything.
2. There is a global price on carbon
The WEF predicts that by 2030 there will be a "price on carbon" in some form in 80% of the world.
Their goal is to make people use public transport - which if it's anything like NY's we're all fucked - which is more efficient. But it also means that the rich can fly private jets while the rest of us are stuck on a subway.
When discussing the environment, let's make sure a small group of wealthy people won't be asked to sacrifice anything, while the rest of us have to give up more.
3. US dominance is over. We now have a handful of global powers
Woah, did a global organization comprised of Bill Gates, Yuval Noah Harari, and the CEOs of Google and Apple just call for the end of US hegemony?
Yes, they did.
The WEF says that by 2030 there will be a "multipolar world order" with a handful of global powers.
The US will still be one of them, but China, India, and the EU will also be major players. What does that mean for the US? Guess we'll find out.
4. Farewell hospital, hello home-spital
Hospitals will be on the way out as technology takes the forefront of health care. The WEF predicts that by 2030, "virtual health assistants will provide more primary care than human doctors."
There will also be this idea called "the internet of bodies" which is a network of sensors and devices that monitor our health.
Israeli author Yuval Noah Harari says people better learn to get with this or they'll be deemed useless in society:
"Human beings are no longer mysterious, spiritual souls, we are now hackable animals, said Harari. "There will be two classes: The exploited and the useless class (people who don't adopt wearable technologies, metaverse, etc). It's better to be exploited than be useless."
5. We are eating much less meat
"5 reasons why eating insects could reduce climate change" - WEF
Mantras like this - or WEF's recent article "Why we need to give insects the role they deserve in our food systems" - make me wonder if they're a meme factory masquerading as a think tank.
But apparently, the WEF is serious about getting us to eat bugs; they predict that by 2030 we'll be eating much less meat because it's bad for the environment.
They also say that lab-grown meat will be more ubiquitous and we'll be eating "clean meat" which is grown in a lab from animal cells.
6. Today's Palestinian refugees, 2030's CEOs
The WEF predicts that by 2030, "most of the world's refugees will be educated." They also say that "refugees will become a major source of entrepreneurial talent."
Interestingly enough you won't find an article about Palestine or Israel, just this one-paragraph statement that doesn't say anything either way.
They're scared to lose donor money.
And I'll play devil's advocate because completely open borders aren't sustainable either. For example, one of my good friends lives in Poland and tells me the sheer amount of Ukrainian refugees coming in is putting a strain on the country.
Clearly, these people need homes, but removing borders entirely might be unsustainable and lead to more problems. It's a complex issue.
7. The values that built the West will have been tested to the breaking point
It's not that the WEF wants democracy to fail; they just want it to be "reimagined." They say that by 2030, "the values that have underpinned the liberal world order will have been tested to the breaking point."
But what are these values? Individualism, freedom of speech, laissez-faire capitalism, Judeo-Christianity?
The WEF doesn't say, but I'm sure they'll be happy to tell us soon.
8. By the 2030s, we'll be ready to move humans toward the Red Planet
I'm happy the WEF ended their tyrannical Orwellian hellscape on a good note.
But I wonder who will help them get to Mars? Surely not the Twitter man who they all despise and wish dead every night.
That guy's not even part of the WEF.
So, who knows? Maybe they'll squash their beef.
We're All Going to Die, Maybe
I'm not a "conspiracy" theorist. I'm an "I've done the reading and things don't add up" theorist. I get annoyed when I talk about Israel, or 9/11, or what happened with Julian Assange and it's brushed aside as conspiracy.
The documents are there. The evidence is there. You can read it for yourself.
To me, the WEF is a perfect example of an organization that's out of touch with reality. They make predictions that seem more like sci-fi than anything else.
But the scariest part is that they have an agenda. They want to control the world, they point-blank say it, and they're using fear to do it.
Don't be afraid. Be aware. Educate yourself. And don't eat bugs.
That's all I got. Thanks.
