00:00:00.000 Many of the most influential people on earth have been in Davos this week for the annual
00:00:04.440 meeting of the World Economic Forum, you know, known as the WEF. Many people roll their eyes
00:00:09.360 at the very mention of the WEF and dismiss any critique of the organization's actions as
00:00:13.840 being conspiracy theories. But it's not hard to see why the WEF is the subject of many conspiracy
00:00:19.240 theories. I mean, when you research the organization, they sound like something out
00:00:22.640 of a spy novel. I mean, the group was founded by Klaus Schwab back in 1971 with an agenda to
00:00:28.680 influence world policies, world economic policies in particular. Powerful business leaders and
00:00:33.400 political figures would come out to attend the annual meetings in Switzerland. And in the pre-internet
00:00:38.420 days, the agenda of those meetings wasn't really known by many. So it was really open to a lot of
00:00:42.480 speculation. I mean, hell, Schwab even looks a little bit like a James Bond villain. And with
00:00:47.320 a Swiss mountain lair, what else would people assume? You know, he's this secretive man off in
00:00:53.040 the mountains there talking to influential people. The thing though, the thing is, nothing with
00:00:58.620 the WEF is actually secret. Their agenda and guest list are as public as can be. Videos of speakers
00:01:04.200 and their participation are easy to find all over the internet. I mean, just because the organization
00:01:09.080 is transparent though, it doesn't mean it isn't dangerous. The WEF influences political and public
00:01:15.520 figures, particularly the weak ones. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is a prime example. Trudeau is not
00:01:21.280 exactly what one would label as a cerebral type of leader. He relies on a cult of personality and photo
00:01:26.740 opportunities to maintain his electoral popularity rather than trying to develop any deep sort of
00:01:32.120 policies. Trudeau is also driven by vanity. So he was rather tickled when he delivered a keynote
00:01:37.460 address to the WEF in Davos in 2018. When he can follow a script, he can do quite well. That's what
00:01:43.000 drama teachers do. Trudeau then consumed the WEF policies on the Great Reset though, and regurgitated
00:01:49.060 them in later interviews. Now the Great Reset, like many other things related to the WEF, is often brushed
00:01:54.740 off as being some sort of conspiracy theory as well. It's right there in the open like the other
00:01:59.760 things on the WEF website for all to read though. It's an odious plan to take advantage of world
00:02:04.940 disasters such as pandemics in order to implement massive economic changes. Those changes invariably
00:02:10.720 involve centralizing government and imposing socialism. The Great Reset wants to use disasters
00:02:16.740 to implement policies that people would never vote for in a democracy. If the Great Reset was just a
00:02:22.080 notion on a website, we can ignore it. But when we hear political leaders parroting it, as Justin
00:02:26.840 Trudeau did, we have to start taking it seriously. And the WEF uses climate change as a potential
00:02:32.420 disaster to justify extreme policies as well. I mean, despite the world being in the midst of an
00:02:37.240 energy crisis causing economic distress to billions, the World Economic Forum is solidly
00:02:42.700 maintaining its stance on pushing for a transition from hydrocarbon fuel sources. In a speech to the
00:02:48.360 gathering this year, just last week, Norwegian finance CEO Kirsten Brathen says energy transition
00:02:54.260 will create energy shortages and inflationary pressures. But this is pain. This pain is worth
00:03:00.000 it. Yeah, that's what she said. The WEF and its adherence know their policies are going to cause human
00:03:05.780 misery. But in their ideological bubbles, they feel it's worthwhile. It's a worthwhile price to pay.
00:03:11.140 Of course, the elites themselves who were in Davos won't feel any of that pain. Indeed, many of them have
00:03:16.180 actually prospered during the pandemic. It served them well. A posting on the WEF website showed a
00:03:21.120 picture of empty roads during pandemic lockdowns and stated emissions fell during lockdowns. Let's
00:03:27.120 keep it that way. Never mind the misery and economic damage of the pandemic. The WEF feels that that pain
00:03:33.660 is worth it and they want to maintain it. And again, this agenda is no secret. It's hiding right in the
00:03:38.720 open. Folks often attribute way more power to the WEF than it actually wields as well, though. I mean, sure,
00:03:45.140 they want to influence and control as many leaders as possible. They make no bones about that. It doesn't
00:03:50.280 mean they're succeeding in every case, though. So we've got to be careful there. Many people have attended
00:03:54.120 WEF gatherings in Davos and have dismissed their agenda. Their minds aren't controlled through sitting
00:03:58.960 through a week of presentations and shoulder rubbing with other elites. We see people labeling every
00:04:03.920 politician they don't like as being some sort of patsy for the WEF. Hell, I've even been accused of it by some
00:04:09.160 occasionally on social media, even though I've never even been to Switzerland. I hope to get there
00:04:12.760 someday. Not necessarily do a WEF function, though. The WEF does have influence, though, and many people
00:04:19.600 in positions of power share the WEF agenda. The agenda right now will exacerbate the world energy
00:04:25.100 crisis, and it's ignoring the building impending world food crisis. As economies crumble and people
00:04:30.700 starve, political instability will follow. And this is just the sort of environment the WEF wants to see
00:04:36.680 in order to foster the policies they can't sell democratically. It's a sick agenda, and it will
00:04:42.020 come with immeasurable human cost. If we allow it to happen, we can't pretend we didn't see it coming.
00:04:47.200 The WEF has been saying it over and over again already. They want the world to freeze in the dark.
00:04:54.360 Can't say I didn't warn you guys.
