Siemens is a main driver and global leader in Smart City technology. So, Siemens tells Los Angeles what its problems are (energy, transit) and then proceeds to sell solutions that will 'fix' the problems, 'helping' the city meet its United Nations-imposed Sustainable Development goals.
The source of Technocrats are corporations: "The hold of corporate power on public policy in India has many other manifestations, from the plunder of public sector banks to the appropriation of land, water, minerals"
The Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency is not a law enforcement agency, and yet it is spying on local citizens with a sophisticated drone. The City Council has the power to stop this cold in its tracks with a simple binding resolution, and citizens are bringing pressure.
TN has long-held that as a Technocracy, China was faking economic data about its fully-engineered society. This is a natural result of insisting that your predicted outcomes must be correct, so data to the contrary is simply ignored. In short, the Technocrat mind cannot be wrong, so always make it look 'right'.
This is a letter to the editor published in a Colorado Springs newspaper, and it nails Technocracy for what it is: a super-radical ideology designed to exert control over everything in sight. Technocrat technological solutions will not save the world, but will more likely enslave it.
The United Nations knows better than to rile Americans over gun control, but that has not stopped them from quietly discussing how to do an end-run around the U.S. Constitution with crippling rules and regulations. Sustainable Development, aka Technocracy, has no room for resistance of self-defense.
As documented in Technocracy Rising: The Trojan Horse of Global Transformation, China was transformed into a Technocracy at the hands of the Trilateral Commission elite starting in the 1970s. In short, American was purposely plundered. The next wave of destruction will come from robots displacing jobs.
The scientific solution for border control is robotics equipped with AI to ask a few questions using lie-detecting algorithms. Liars will be dealt with. But what is to prevent this technology from being used everywhere in America?
Radical medical experiments are often seen in China, rather than the US or Europe, because Technocracy has no strong ethic or desire to prevent them. If science can 'do it', then it should. This also appeals to the Transhuman movement which seeks to achieve immortality through science.
Advanced AI that can imitate a human to the point that a real human cannot tell the difference, is deception. Why would Technocrats want to invent technology designed to purposely deceive people? Because they can.
