Understanding the Technocrat mind is essential to understanding the modern world. All scientists and engineers, perhaps even the majority of them, are certainly not Technocrats but all Technocrats hold the mistaken belief that all human problems can be solved through applied science.
The CO2 error is the root of the biggest scam in the history of the world, and has already bilked nations and citizens out of trillions of dollars, while greatly enriching the perpetrators. In the end, their goal is global Technocracy (aka Sustainable Development), which grabs and sequesters all the resources of the world into a collective trust to be managed by them.
Technocracy is all about social engineering. Advocacy Advertising (AA) is a tool to generate sales by promoting a particular opinion, such as political, social, economic or scientific. Such ads seek to influence public opinion for the self-interest of the advertiser. Conceptually, AA is closely related to the Nudge theory of behavioral science which uses positive reinforcement and indirect suggestions to influence behavior. Both are tools of social engineering, and skillfully practiced by Technocrats in all professions.
It started with the theory of Administrative law and gave way to a later legal theory called Reflexive law. Neither has anything to do with America's traditional 'Rule of Law' that is supposed to apply equal justice to all Americans regardless of race, creed, color and religion. Further, when these alternative legal theories are put into practice, they are destructive to the original intent.
The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed, and hence clamorous to be led to safety, by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken
Dr. Tim Ball doesn't mention it by name, but what he describes is pure Technocracy at heart. In 1934, the Technocracy Study Course defined education as “A continental system of human conditioning will have to be installed to replace the existing insufficient educational methods and institutions. This continental system of general education will have to be organized as to provide the fullest possible conditioning and physical training… It must educate and train the student public so as to obtain the highest possible percentage of proficient functional capacity. “
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.
The Founding Fathers provided the tools to right the Republic and put the ship of state back on course. No other nation has that opportunity, so the people of the world can only hope the American people take it.
