Now, one of the three main goals of the Great Reset agenda is “to harness the innovations of the Fourth Industrial Revolution to support the public good…” As the founder of the WEF, Klaus Schwab, explains, the Fourth Industrial Revolution “will lead to a fusion of our physical, digital, and biological identities.” Schwab specifically considers technologies that will change what it means to be human, because they will integrate into the human body and mind in order to overcome (‘transcend’) their limitations. Schwab says “intrude into the hitherto private space of our minds, reading our thoughts and influencing our behavior…”While these technologies seem like science fiction, they are nearly at our doorstep. In fact, much of the pandemic response effort relies on Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies, such as genetic sequencing, vaccine biotechnology (mRNA and vector platforms), and contact tracing (mass surveillance) software. Social distancing measures have also forced people to replace their physical world with a virtual one, including digital versions of school, church, shopping, and even parties. While this has been a terrible loss for most people, this digitalisation of our lives (including COV-id apps and digital currency) is part of the WEF’s vision for our future, and therefore, in their view, quite desirable.
Here again we find the traces of the ancient myths, for while Prometheus’ gift of fire allowed humanity to create civilization, it also gave us the means of waging war with one another, thus hastening the decline from the golden age to the present age of iron. In this sense, Jünger suggests that our era of “increasingly perfect technology” may be likened to the myth of Saturn, for just as Saturn devoured his own children, modern civilization devours its own security through its dependence on the very technology that unmoors its foundations.
Why, Jünger asks, does the “craving for security” that pervades the modern consciousness grow in step with technological progress? The answer must be that technology’s advocates have become cognizant of the inherent dangers of the forces they have set in motion. In Jünger’s words, “Modern man wakes up to the fact that the elemental forces he has enslaved in his machinery are turning against him with ever growing, viciously destructive force.”

The report: “Human Augmentation – The Dawn of a New Paradigm. A strategic implications project” was published jointly by the UK Ministry of Defense, and German Federal Ministry of Defense in 2021. Reading this document is frankly chilling as the the idea of using human augmentation for warfare is considered a fait accompli by the authors. That planning for human augmentation must start now.
We can assume that although this report is coming from the UK Ministry of Defense, and German Federal Ministry of Defense, parallel efforts are being made by most large governments around the world.
To begin this report highlights the important and benefits of human augmentation. From the report:
Human augmentation will become increasingly relevant, partly because it can directly enhance human capability and behavior and partly because it is the binding agent between people and machines. Future wars will be won, not by those with the most advanced technology, but by those who can most effectively integrate the unique capabilities of both people and machines. The importance of human-machine teaming is widely acknowledged but it has been viewed from a techno-centric perspective. Human augmentation is the missing part of this puzzle.
Of course, one of the first questions that must be asked when reading this report is what is human augmentation.
Respectable is ridiculous. Credentials and experience are not. We live in a Fallen, fake, flawed Bourgeois world. Covid-19 is fraud. Virology is fraud. However telling truth is a matter of skillful means which is why in Antiquity parables taught profound truth and trivial truths spoken. To be honest I cannot envisage Rappaport having the street cred to speak to the fearful masses. Mass formation psychosis IS CIVILIZATION per se.
As Berdyaev says:
Authority is the typical product of objectification, the typical product of a mass of
human subjects, the typical symbolization of the subjects’ spiritual state, of their
servility, spiritual immaturity, self-abstraction. The part played by authority in the
history of social life is tremendous. But in the sphere of authentic spiritual reality God
is in no sense an authority; nor is revelation, for in that sphere there is no objectivity
to condition the symbolical illusion of authority. In his uncertainty man seeks an
authority on which he can rely; but such an authority is merely the product of his
weakness, the projection of his subjectivity, of his failure to discover another,
concretely-universal world. As it happens, authority does nothing to free man from his
prison. The interpretation of anything in terms of external objectivity implies man’s
limitation and inability to transcend himself. Authority is the tyranny of the generic
over the individual principle.
