This is a very important story to understand because Facebook, et. al., have found a new tool to destroy alternative media: 'fact checking.' Facebook's third-party fact checkers hardly know one end of truth from the other, but they make hard assertions in spite of it.
Scientists say they want to discover the DNA responsible for the dog's small size, but in the process are perfecting cloning technology. This smacks of Huxley's Brave New World (1932) where humans were cloned (doppelgängers) to fill particular classes of jobs in society; procreation outside of the laboratory was forbidden.
The glaring fallacy in Technocracy is that the data are bent to justify their theories. This crept in when early Technocrats realized that their 'Science of Social Engineering' could not be supported with legitimate data. Today's news plays out like the childhood game 'Simon Says" but substituted with 'Science Says'.
The negative impact of academic speculation over the last 150 years cannot be overestimated. It has led humanity around by a ring in its nose, from pointless argument to pointless argument. This is the infertile soil that produced systems like Technocracy, Sustainable Development and Global Warming.
Technocrats crave any and all data including data relating to your behavior. Technocracy was defined as the "Science of Social Engineering" as early as 1938 and nothing has changed. Smart TVs aim to change your behavior, period.
Just as a few Big Tech companies control media exposure on the earth, so to will a few Big Pharma companies control the genetic future of planetary citizens. Technocrats are outside of all ethical and moral bounds, bent on the 'science of social engineering."
As the world is further transformed into Technocracy, calls for Universal Basic Income increase. Technocrat billionaire Richard Branson does not volunteer to give his own money away as 'free cash' but encourages governments to do so.
China is the land of Technocrat inventors who support the 'science of social engineering' and controlling the population is central to the mission. Citizens are already tracked 24x7 by cameras equipped with facial recognition and ranked by social credit scoring systems. Dissent will not be tolerated.
Al Gore, a tenured globalist and former member of the Trilateral Commission, is also the consummate Technocrat, pushing Sustainable Development, aka Green Economy or Technocracy. Gore's role in global transformation is to use fear to stampede people into giving up their rights and resources.
Technocrats at Google have a scientific solution for every problem, including cities. The problem is that Google or any other Big Tech company has no experience in urban planning or designing cities, so the result is nothing more than their own private vision of Utopia.
