dig a little deeper Ben.

Here is a summary i quickly glanced at:
Klaus Schwab’s book might as well have been called “how to peacefully seize power in a democratic country”.
It is not only full of historical, economic, and social inaccuracies, but it overtly promotes more taxes and less liberty, presented as “good for the well-being of the people”.
For example, Schwab justifies mass lockdowns by the fact that if we hadn’t established them, too many people would have gotten sick and the economy would have collapsed completely.
No words about mental health, physical abuse, or basic human rights. They’re all sacrificed on the altar of economic performances.
His further call for “more government” is downright laudable, hypocritical, or tragically ignorant (which I doubt).
His claim that responsibility increased due to a decrease in government size is absolutely false, and this is proven by the number of civil servants, the number of laws that rule society, the growing deficit, or simply the budget allocated to governments yearly. All of them have only been rising.
Furthermore, more government risks not to improve any situation, but to make it much worse.
Indeed, governments don’t have the reputation to be high-achieving organizations.
Let’s have a look at some examples.
The war in Irak, the war in Afghanistan, the Uighurs in Xinjiang, the war in Libya, the war in Yemen, the war in Syria, the seizure of Crimea, Tchernobyl, the current energy crisis, and broadly, corruption, violence, arbitrary ruling, deficits, and inflation are mistakes only governments can make.
The underfunding of healthcare and of the education system that Schwab denounces are consequences of government management; the lack of jobs is a consequence of government policies; and social-economic inequalities have more to do with government fixing consequences instead of looking for the causes of the problem.
Regarding practices that could genuinely help society, such as the breakup of monopolies (Amazon), lowering barriers to entrepreneurship, increasing access to education, limiting junk food and other harmful edible, or pushing for local consumption, Klaus Schwab says nothing of it.
He’d rather you go vegan and eat pineapple flown from Brazil than eat local regenerative-grown meat.
Why?
Because a better world is not Klaus Schwab’s intention.
Make no mistakes, he does not fight so you can go to the hospital for free when your stomach hurts.
Schwab does not live in your world. He’s part of the worldwide global elite, the people you make money for in exchange for a meager salary that you’re giving back during the month anyway(through your rent, your food, your gas, and your taxes.)
Schwab does not want you to be happy and safe. He wants you to be silent and inoffensive so you don’t revolt and challenge his hegemony.
Overall, the Great Reset is a fascinating book. It shows the elite truly has no respect nor any type of consideration for the people that serve them (you and me.)
It also shows that if you’re not careful and fight for your rights, they will easily be taken away for the sake of “the greater good”.
Strange times.

Absolutely damning in my opinion, with more to come. Governments coordinating large scale with social media to wage 3 yrs of information warfare on their own people...censorship and information, narrative and thought control by social media...:

This stuff would be slammed as deep state conspiracy theory if it wasn't for Elon Musk.

I'm now struggling to work out who are the conspiracy theorists over the past 3 yrs.

The evidence is spewing out of the bilges as the ship goes under.

I don't know what's worse, new age far left woke man bun hipster apologists or extreme right gun toting redneck moron fuckwits. Burls, that all you got, you keep getting your "evidence" from insta, Facebook and twitter, no one cares anyway.
Had xmas day at my sister's place, afterwards a friend of hers dropped in, a well known local specialist doctor. He sang us a few songs with his acoustic guitar and then the topic turned to covid. Like the rest of our family, he and his wife have had four jabs and are still yet to catch covid, unlike us they still wear masks in public and he was saying that he really doesn't want to get it as he has seen so many patients with long term effects and ongoing issues even when the symptoms were mild. I mentioned Dr. Keryn Phelps and his response was that it's a complex issue but the vaccinations have saved millions of lives and the pros far outweigh the cons for society as a whole. Cheers.

"it's a complex issue"
That's another key point - it's a complex issue and a lot of people are looking for simple, easy to understand answers.
Unfortunately, a lot of the world, especially the modern world, just isn't like that, and our media doesn't help with the way it trains us to expect everything to be explained in neat, brief segments.

Tell me about it. The number of surfers who log in to Swellnet and exclusively read just the daily rating (out of ten) before making a decision to head to the coast or not, is staggering.

Even the use of the words "Anti Vaxxers" is used to cause divide. Much the same as "conspiracy Theories"

You are doing nothing but driving hate by the use of these words.

You'd think if she was "sounding the alarm" about Covid vax injuries, she wouldn't give a shit about saying she's against the Covid vax.
And no sane person, doctor or not, is against vaccinations generally.

Natural immunity a conspiracy theory, now you are really clutching at straws. Btw the unvaxxed young recalcitrant at work had it three times before he finally got the jab. No one ever said there was no natural immunity, just that millions more would have died if we had waited for herd immunity without the help of vaccines. Pretty simple really, even for you.

At what stage of the vaccine roll out? Of course now it’s open discussion but it wasn’t originally in the beginning of the pandemic.

People lost their accounts for daring to speak about natural immunity

You ain’t got much left, burleigh. Just repeating the same old comebacks exposes your lack of ability to think for yourself. It’s quite sad, yet funny, how much of a dick with nothing you are.
