In my book, The Evil Twins of Technocracy and Transhumanism, the chapter "Who Is Driving This Train" definitively concludes that the central banks, with the BIS sitting at the apex, are the primary forces behind the hoaxes of global warming and the pandemic. Why hoaxes? To drive the world into full-blown Technocracy and away from capitalism and free market economics.
Anyone who understands historic Technocracy from the 1930s would immediately recognize "currency that expires" as a key element of a Technocrat-run economy. CBDCs extend the concept to include programmable features that force holders to spend according to a socially engineered dictate. This smacks of Technocracy, not socialism, communism or fascism.
After years of dishing out abuse and accusations to those who sounded the alarm on geoengineering, the Federal government itself has published a major report detailing ways to block the sun to mitigate non-existent "global warming". This Technocrat initiative seeks to shrink economic activity by controlling energy, food and water. It will not save the world, but rather will destroy it.
