Intro
I see articles and podcasts discussing CBDCs (Central Bank Digital Currencies) but most don’t seem to pull together the full picture. This article attempts to do that.
Most of the content on the topic simply talks about surveillance. How governments around the world will be able to use blockchain technology to have full, or near full, transparency into every person’s transaction history. While that’s a key aspect of what this technology enables, the real danger is much worse than that.
Psychological manipulation techniques are being used on unprecedented scales nowadays. Many people have no idea they’re constantly being programmed at all levels. It’s subtle, but sometimes overt as many saw with the COVID programming (which at times was subtle but overt to those that can spot their tricks). COVID, like 9/11 and JFK and many false flags before it, woke up a lot of people. Unfortunately it seemingly takes these types of events to do so.
Anyone familiar with me knows that I often remark that the head of the snake in many ways is the financial system. This is why a ‘here today, gone tomorrow’ politician can’t really change anything – the bankers, and various globalist institutions such as the WEF and CFR, and their various mechanisms for control are far more powerful in every aspect of affecting actual policies. That enables an unprecedented amount of power, control, and influence.
The dynastic families that, for centuries, have dictated monetary policy aren’t worried about some slogan that a politician has about reforming some part of the system. At least Ron Paul created a bit of a revolution into how people think about government on a national scale, and helped make the “End the Fed” slogan popular. But it’s more than just a slogan, it drove many people to start researching the Fed and how the system works.
What central banking enables
The US (and others as well) wouldn’t be able to wage wars around the world if there wasn’t the fiat monetary system in place. War requires vast sums of money in short periods of time and the planners use mass media to manifest support for their money creation to support said war. The must-watch documentary “All Wars Are Bankers Wars” is critical to understanding this concept.
Behind all war-time propaganda is the ultimate desire for power by those at the top. The desire to install puppets favorable to the globalists – those that put the desires of these globalists ahead of the people they’re supposed to represent.
As I wrote in a two-part series about central banking, the less-known but real history of the Revolutionary War was not about ‘tea and stamps’ but about the American Colonies being forced to stop using their own currency in favor of bank notes from England, which were charged interest on of course.
“The refusal of King George 3rd to allow the colonies to operate an honest money system, which freed the ordinary man from the clutches of the money manipulators, was probably the prime cause of the revolution.” — Benjamin Franklin, Founding Father
“The modern banking system manufactures money out of nothing. The process is perhaps the most astounding piece of sleight of hand that was ever invented. Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The Bankers own the Earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create deposits, and with the flick of a pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take it away from them, and all the fortunes like mine will disappear, and they ought to disappear, for this world would be a happier and better world to live in. But if you wish to remain slaves of the Bankers and pay for the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create deposits.” — Sir Josiah Stamp, President of the Bank of England in the 1920s, the second richest man in Britain
This is why, out of everything evil in the world, bankers are top of my list. They are part of these dynastic banking families spanning centuries of where the real power lies and has lied. Rothschilds, Hapsburgs, these are examples of such families.
As I’ve outlined, a major control mechanism that the parasite class uses is the monetary system. That is why, as we enter this new era, I’m very concerned about how it will unfold. Wars have been fought for centuries to ensure compliance with a given monetary policy, so I expect similar kinetic confrontations to arise from the coming changes.
Tying the historical with the current
Now with this historical framework we can tie in the levels of control a CBDC and the other tools it enables.
Controlling supply and demand
Historically central banks such as the Federal Reserve have control over the supply of currency in circulation. This is primarily by using a single lever – the interest rates.
When interest rates are high, taking out a loan means the interest payments will be higher – this stifles capital expenditures in a business for example and overall just makes it more expensive to do business. Homeowners are also discouraged from buying because suddenly their monthly mortgage payment is higher, potentially pricing them out from the market altogether.
When interest rates are low, the opposite is true. Businesses are encouraged to invest in the business, as are homeowners to buy.
Individual dollars are difficult to track through their lifetime. They’ll exchange hands ownership many times through the system. Cash-based economies are a nightmare for the social engineers because they can’t monitor everything the plebs are spending their money on. They lack full control in this system.
Here’s the head of the Bank for International Settlements (the central bank for central banks) talking of cash. It’s a must-watch if you haven’t seen it.
Well, he said the quiet part out loud. Whoops!
This is how the people at ‘the top’ think in all regards about the masses. Not just regarding a CBDC, but they realize it’s the most effective way at furthering their mind control/social programming. We are cattle to them – I repeat this frequently because most people simply have no idea about this mindset. Subsets of the population are legitimate psychopaths, lacking empathy, which is a foreign concept to ‘normal’ people which makes it difficult to think of wide-reaching and sinister conspiracies. “Who would do such a thing” is a common retort.
And unfortunately the first-world is very dependent on the system to survive – a small percentage of self-sufficient via homesteading, bartering in their community, etc. This further enables a CBDC to function in regular society. Not all of us will ‘go Galt’.
With a CBDC as programmable currency on a government blockchain, they’ll be able to dictate where currency is spent. They’ll be able to track where currency is flowing and use AI and other algorithms to further analyze trends and spending patterns.
As a result, they’ll be able to control, to a much greater degree than today, the demand for any good or service as well.
For example, with the current attack on ‘fossil fuels’ and (real) meat, the system can deny further purchases in a given month if one has already hit their $100 maximum for said month. You’ll need to wait until the next cycle/month to fill up your gas tank, for example. This is, quite obviously, an incredible threat to freedom. You’ve earned currency for your labor and some corrupt bankster stooge will dictate where and when you can spend said currency.
Above I mentioned they’ve historically been able to control the supply of currency in circulation, but a CBDC allows a high degree of control for the demand as well – this is unprecedented. This enables many parts of the control grid quickly being put in place.
Explicit social credit system
What I’ve outlined above is, more or less, a built-in social credit system. It rewards certain behaviors – purchases of goods and services – to reinforce various narratives that ‘they’ want. Those that go against the narratives aren’t rewarded. Further provocations can have your funds frozen (locked up in a CBDC bank account with the Fed, remember?) or progressively worse actions taken against someone because they don’t play along. The full stat apparatus will be enforcing these tools, up to and including violence against citizens.
Expand these ideas to a carbon credit where they’ll be able to limit movement because you’ve moved around too much in a month/year. Global travel will be relegated to the top 1% with private jets, those that can work around the system (wink wink), and government of course (rules for thee, not for me after all). The framework has been in the works for years now and as I wrote in a previous article, COVID was a Trojan Horse to encourage certain behaviors and funnel money into projects that will ultimately be used for the climate alarmists.
The technological infrastructure in many parts of the world is already here to enable much of this (or will by for sure in the next few years). A major bank in Australia recently began linking customer’s accounts to carbon impacts.
This is why I encourage foreign residencies, particularly in less-developed countries. Many of these countries have myriad loopholes/workarounds to sustain various freedoms.
Digital ID
Klaus Schwab and Bill Gates, among other stooges of their ilk, are pushing for all of these control measures plus a digital ID. Gates has his grimy hands in projects such as ID2020. They want a system that is fully digitalized, and thus easier to monitor and control, and big part of that is a digital ID in centralized databases. This will tie in vaxx status, social credit status, and likely one’s currency. It’ll be a cashless society enabled by an app in one’s smartphone, or even a chip implanted (which they’ve been testing for a while now).
China as an example
In many ways China is a blueprint for what the social engineers want. A top-down, digital dystopia. The ability to control large segments of a population on short notice and for whatever reason they want. China, at least in the large metro areas, can do this. They’ve been testing a CBDC for years. They have an explicit social credit system. The government is involved in all facets of business/the economy.
From Cato,
Alex Gladstein, chief strategy officer at the Human Rights Foundation, has recognized the danger to financial freedom and privacy inherent in central bank digital currency (CBDC), especially in repressive regimes like China. According to Gladstein, “The end of cash and the insta‐analysis of financial transactions enable surveillance, state control, and, eventually, social engineering on a scale never thought possible.” He points to China’s social credit system, in conjunction with a digital yuan, as paving the way toward “financial omniscience.” Thus,
When the government can take financial privileges away for posting the wrong word on social media, saying the wrong thing in a call to parents, or sending the wrong photo to relatives, individuals self‐censor and exercise extreme caution. In this way, control over money can create a social chilling effect.
It is instructive, as Andrew Liu has reported in the Cato Journal, that government authorities have used regulations on mobile payments “to help the Communist Party maintain full political, social, and economic power,” even though the official rhetoric is that those regulations were intended “to prevent criminal activity and improve mobile payment security.” There is little doubt that Xi Jinping and his cadres in the State Council will be tempted to politicize the digital yuan to serve their own interests.
Centralized institutions will always corrupt themselves, and use state power to remain in power. They don’t want competition from Bitcoin or actual decentralized solutions borne from the free-market.
China has also tested out expiration dates on the yuan to force purchases and not allow savings. Their centralized tech systems can shut people off from society based on the government’s discretion.
Which countries are furthest along in this goal?
In terms of volume, China is the clear winner. They recently completed 14 billion USD worth of transactions. Six million retailers/stores support payment in the digital yuan.
The map on the site cbdctracker.com shows an overview around the world as well – several Caribbean countries have fully introduced their CBDCs and in the next 2-3 years many will follow.
Who’s fighting against this?
As more people understand what’s going on, action is needed. Unfortunately we need political solutions to enact large scale changes but localized solutions can be put into place as well.
In April 2022, Ted Cruz introduced a bill to prevent the Fed from issuing a CBDC directly to individuals. Cruz correctly compares the potential of this as what China is doing to its citizens.
Many countries are still in the ‘Research’ stage so let’s hope the potential lies in those countries before their programs are too far along.
Will more politicians join the fight and put an end to this? My hunch says that said politicians will say that “well China and other competitors at a national level are doing this so in order to compete in global transactions we need our own CBDC”.
Conclusion
All of these control measures are predicated on the masses going along with the system. Even pockets of communities working together can circumvent these measures. If we use COVID as a trial run, most of the sheeple will do as they’re told unfortunately.
As I’ve described here, a CBDC issued by the Fed is not just a digital dollar. With the head of the snake being the financial system, CBDCs enable many other tools of surveillance and control. COVID provided some of the framework, funds, and public discussion around these ideas. I see the climate discussion ramping way up and they’ll try to tie all of these systems together along with a ‘carbon score’ or similar as well.
Much like the real reason for the American Revolutionary War as outlined above, I think nothing short of a revolution is needed again to stop these people. I’d prefer a revolution in terms of how people view authority and those ‘in power’ but I fear outright violence will be coming in short order. I certainly don’t advocate for violence, but I’m also not a pacifist and those at the top have done plenty to outright aggress on the populace, forcing an experimental ‘substance’ into countless people to begin with.
