Some of you may not be science fiction fans, but I always have been. I still remember as a young child watching the original Star Trek TV series, and boy how enthralled I was. The United Federation of Planets was an entity in ways similar to the NATO, and like NATO, the Federation had many formidable, though not invincible, enemies. The 1980s brought us Star Trek: The Next Generation (often abbreviated TNG), but at the time, I wasn’t a fan. It took until the 2000s for me to warm up to it, but when I did, I found some interesting twists on the original. As we join the new crew of the new starship Enterprise, now captained by Jean Luc Picard, a man more pensive and less rash than Captain Kirk of the original series, the Federation has propagated, and so have their antagonists proliferated. Among those was one foe the likes of which the Federation had never faced.
The Borg Collective was, by far, the Enterprise’s, and the entire galaxy’s, most menacing adversary. They had a large, almost impenetrable ship that scoured the galaxy for cultures to assimilate. No, this wasn’t today’s cultural appropriation - they weren’t claiming the culinary delights of a planet as their own nor adopting some other society’s manner of dress. They would literally absorb all of the people in the society and enslave them as drones. The Borg collective was composed of cyborgs who were once citizens of planets throughout the galaxy. Unlike the Enterprise’s mission to study new worlds, when the Borg came upon a civilization they had not yet encountered, all of the citizens of that society were forcibly implanted with cybernetics and connected, virtually, not physically, to the Borg’s shared consciousness. That collective consciousness was called the hive mind. Once plugged in, each Borg lost any sense of individuality. Each Borg unit’s sole purpose was to serve the collective. No Borg thought for itself, but had its thoughts controlled by the queen via the hive mind. As this giant cube-shaped ship hurtled through space seeking new worlds to incorporate, the viewer began to understand that the Borg’s perception of others was singular: they were a resource to be used, enslaved, and indoctrinated.
This is surprisingly, and unfortunately, no longer just science fiction - this is what we are seeing happen in our world right now. The Davos crowd, the globalists, see themselves as people of this world as a reserve to be tapped. In their thinking, our thoughts must be controlled so that we may serve their purpose. They will stop at nothing to accomplish their aim. Jacinda Ardern, the PM of New Zealand exemplified this in a recent speech at the U.N.:

This week we launched an initiative alongside companies and non-profits to help improve research and understanding of how a person’s online experiences are curated by automated processes. This will also be important in understanding more about mis and disinformation online. A challenge that we must as leaders address. Sadly, I think it’s easy to dismiss this problem as one in the margins. I can certainly understand the desire to leave it to someone else. As leaders, we are rightly concerned that even those most light-touch approaches to disinformation could be misinterpreted as being hostile to the values of free speech that we value so highly. But while I cannot tell you today what the answer is to this challenge, I can say with complete certainty that we cannot ignore it. To do so poses an equal threat to the norms we all value. After all, how do you successfully end a war if people are led to believe the reason for its existence is not only legal but noble? How do you tackle climate change if people do not believe it exists? How do you ensure the human rights of others are upheld, when they are subjected to hateful and dangerous rhetoric and ideology? The weapons may be different but the goals of those who perpetuate them is often the same. To cause chaos and reduce the ability of others to defend themselves. To disband communities. To collapse the collective strength of countries who work together. But we have an opportunity here to ensure that these particular weapons of war do not become an established part of warfare. In these times, I am acutely aware of how easy it is to feel disheartened. We are facing many battles on many fronts. But there is cause for optimism. Because for every new weapon we face, there is a new tool to overcome it. For every attempt to push the world into chaos, is a collective conviction to bring us back to order. We have the means; we just need the collective will.
You must not think for yourself. You are incapable of discerning the truth. The “leaders” must curate the information you are permitted to imbibe. Free speech is a weapon of war. We must use the power of the collective if we are to win this war! Ardern said the quiet part out loud. This immediately conjured in my mind an image of the Borg queen, the central processing unit, if you will, of the Borg shared mind. All direction came from above. Information was moderated at the core. Ardern’s statements reveal an underlying desire for a Borg-like collective consciousness. We all must think alike. The truth is what the globalists tell us - nothing more, nothing less.
I’ve always found fascinating the process by which science fiction technology often becomes reality. I never expected, however, that the nemesis of the Federation would actually materialize. Ardern is not the only example of those who have dubious global aims in mind. Klaus Schwab’s chief adviser, Yuval Noah Harari talks about artificial intelligence and humans being hackable. When he speaks of hacking humans, he is not (yet) speaking of cybernetics; rather, he describes how the rise of corporations accumulating endless personal data and using algorithms to analyze this data is allowing these entities to know us better than we know ourselves, and in so doing, are able more easily to manipulate and use us, just as the Borg used those whom they assimilated. He also intimates how technology is rapidly advancing to a point where humans could be connected, Matrix-like, to computers:
You know we will soon have the power to re-engineer our bodies and brains, whether it is with genetic engineering or by directly connecting brains to computers, or by creating completely non-organic entities, artificial intelligence which is not based at all on the organic body and the organic brain. And these technologies are developing at break-neck speed.
Yuval’s solution to the problems he believes this trajectory presents? Global regulation. Of course, Klaus Schwab’s own globalist vision is no secret. The Great Reset, a term all have heard and many seem still to believe nothing more than a conspiracy theory, states he want to “reset our world”:
The pandemic represents a rare but narrow window of opportunity to reflect, reimagine, and reset our world.
Schwab believes he and the global elites should rule over the globe to guide the lesser humans forward. As Schwab writes:
The level of cooperation and ambition this implies is unprecedented. But it is not some impossible dream. In fact, one silver lining of the pandemic is that it has shown how quickly we can make radical changes to our lifestyles. Almost instantly, the crisis forced businesses and individuals to abandon practices long claimed to be essential, from frequent air travel to working in an office.
Likewise, populations have overwhelmingly shown a willingness to make sacrifices for the sake of health-care and other essential workers and vulnerable populations, such as the elderly. And many companies have stepped up to support their workers, customers, and local communities, in a shift toward the kind of stakeholder capitalism to which they had previously paid lip service.
Businesses and individuals were “forced” to make changes that were previously not desired, not by a virus, but by manipulation and government mandate. People were expected “to make sacrifices” for the good of the collective. While in reality, the collective suffered, the elite flourished. Large corporations earned untold billions in profits. The global elites seized unprecedented powers over the populations of their countries.
In case you’re missing it, a lot of this is also the language of diversity, equity, and inclusion. The Borg absorbed a diversity of cultures, much like business are being pressed to do. Once assimilated, the diversity melted away into compliance - the previously-diverse were now Borg. The same may be said for current diversity initiatives - people are hired or included based upon external attributes, but once part of the organization, they are compelled to comply. True diversity, diversity of thought, must not be tolerated. You must submit to the collective consciousness.
Likewise, those assimilated by the Borg achieved equity - all were equally enslaved to the collective; all possessed nothing, but unlike Schwab’s claim, they could not be said to be “happy.”
The plan is for you to eventually accept the following from a WEF article that appeared in Forbes:
I don't own anything. I don't own a car. I don't own a house. I don't own any appliances or any clothes.
It might seem odd to you, but it makes perfect sense for us in this city. Everything you considered a product, has now become a service. We have access to transportation, accommodation, food and all the things we need in our daily lives. One by one all these things became free, so it ended up not making sense for us to own much.
How do such things become “free”? By taking a population of individuals and repurposing them as automatons serving the collective. Everything you produce will be consumed by others. You will consume what others produce. No one will any longer have need of privacy or personal possessions. Everyone (except the elite, of course) will be included. This is their vision of diversity, equity, and inclusion - collective global enslavement under the rule of a small group of wealthy megalomaniacs. All you need to do is stop being selfish and accept that we are on the wrong path. Only then, through submission, can we end all the global crises:
All in all, it is a good life. Much better than the path we were on, where it became so clear that we could not continue with the same model of growth. We had all these terrible things happening: lifestyle diseases, climate change, the refugee crisis, environmental degradation, completely congested cities, water pollution, air pollution, social unrest and unemployment. We lost way too many people before we realized that we could do things differently.
Do things differently. Globally. This is the end game. A global takeover by a cadre of the morally superior who will guide us into utopia. All we need do is simply comply.
This cohort is not made up of just some foreign strangers. Many in our own government are beholden to the WEF and are globalists in their own right. We can see many globalist policies being foisted upon us now. Europe is likewise struggling through a globalist takeover. The problem is endemic; this is a fearsome foil.
One thing the crew of the Enterprise realized in their multiple encounters with the Borg was that, while they may be powerful and intimidating, they are not invulnerable. The same is true of the globalists. Under the veneer of strength and control lies an apprehension, a disquietude that the proles might revolt. Much like the grasshoppers in Disney’s A Bug’s Life, they know that their power can only be sustained through fear and intimidation, but that those who they view as beneath them also far outnumber them and, together, have the power to overthrown them. Picard and his team learned that, with some determination and ingenuity, the enemy can be overcome. We must realize the same. By working together, we can put down this evil threat. It is up to us to make a stand. Resistance is not futile - it is imperative. For if we refuse to thwart this globalist threat, we may as well sit back and accept that we will be assimilated.
There is a big difference between voluntarily working together and being coerced by force to maintain a false/unobtainable way of life.
The "utopia" or "perfect way of life" does not exist. YOUR idea of a perfect life is not necessarily MY idea of a perfect life. That collective mind-hive type of thinking is void of individualism or personal will of being. That is NOT a perfect life to me. That is a miserable existence that isn't worth having.
