IMF Calls For Economy-Crushing Carbon Restrictions That Dwarf COVID Lockdowns

But have Americans lost their appetite for open and constructive dialogue? Or has the rallying cry of “freedom of speech” itself been repurposed to censor and disempower?
“The Future of Free Speech” explores the complexity and conflicts of the moment, and reminds us that it takes continued practice and determination to live in a society that embraces free and open discourse and disagreement.

In the Book of Numbers, the Israelites have fled captivity in Egypt and wandered in the wilderness for forty years. As they finally approach the Promised Land, the Canaanite king Balak grows concerned and summons the prophet Balaam to curse the Israelites. However, each time Balaam attempts to curse Israel, he is compelled by God to bless them instead. After the third failed curse, Balaam utters the line “What hath God wrought!” He is astonished that the Israelites continue to receive God’s favor and protection. This episode demonstrates God’s commitment to delivering the Israelites to the land He promised them. The phrase conveys a sense of wonder at how God’s will has prevailed despite obstacles.
Of course God’s Will requires interpretation by epistemic authorities: individuals or institutions that tell us what we ought to believe. For example, what most of us believe about natural selection, climate change, or the Holocaust comes from our reliance on epistemic authorities (scientists, historians). Sustaining epistemic authority depends, crucially, on social institutions that inculcate reliable second-order norms about whom to believe about what. The traditional media were crucial, in the age of mass democracy, with promulgating and sustaining such norms.
Covid did not do enough damage. The Ukraine is taking too long. Globalista Zionist Trump has returned to do who knows what, except help Israeland assorted other interest groups. Likely not Climate Catastrophists at first but perhaps by next winter if all goes correctly with the collapse of Russia and rise of Greater Israel in co-operation with the correct international totalitarian authority war of necessity on climate can go forward.
Many complex Garbage In and Garbage Out studies are done to justify climate totalitarians. "The fall of the Roman Empire, and the equally (if not more) advanced Han, Mauryan, and Gupta Empires, as well as so many advanced Mesopotamian Empires, are all testimony to the fact that advanced, sophisticated, complex, and creative civilizations can be both fragile and impermanent."
By investigating the human-nature dynamics of these past cases of collapse, the project identifies the most salient interrelated factors which explain civilisational decline, and which may help determine the risk of collapse today: namely, Population, Climate, Water, Agriculture, and Energy.
These factors can lead to collapse when they converge to generate two crucial social features: "the stretching of resources due to the strain placed on the ecological carrying capacity"; and "the economic stratification of society into Elites [rich] and Masses (or "Commoners") [poor]" These social phenomena have played "a central role in the character or in the process of the collapse," in all such cases over "the last five thousand years."
Currently, high levels of economic stratification are linked directly to overconsumption of resources, with "Elites" based largely in industrialised countries responsible for both:
"... accumulated surplus is not evenly distributed throughout society, but rather has been controlled by an elite. The mass of the population, while producing the wealth, is only allocated a small portion of it by elites, usually at or just above subsistence levels."

The pandemic lockdowns would eventually be exposed as pointless; a disastrous drain on the global economy that did nothing to prevent the spread of the covid virus. But as we witnessed with most of the restrictions instituted during covid, the goal was never to protect the health of the populace. Rather, the goal was to acclimate the populace to an exponentially increasing list of violations of their basic freedoms.
One organization that has a distinct interest in diminishing economic activity for the sake of preventing global warming is the International Monetary Fund (IMF). In a recent 'call for global climate action' the IMF states that restrictions on economic activity and general emissions activity would have to far surpass those enforced during the pandemic in order to get to their stated temperature target of less than 1.5°C.
Friend back from being in Berlin said air conditioning not working in hotel. She told reception that it was too hot to sleep and they said air conditioning turned off because it's not hot in October and they are doing it to save the planet.
They got her to sign a waiver so she could be given a key to open the window.
Even on the surface their claims about GW/CC are BS.
More warmth and CO2 will actually reduce the number of weather related deaths (most of which are due to cold, by 5:1) and increase plant growth (which will increase CO2 consumption). On a side note, polar bears are flourishing. And glaciers are growing. Because what really controls climate has nothing to do with anything on this planet, and everything to do with where this planet is relative to the Sun and the galaxy.
If we were to look at the temperature ranges that humans have survived we would realise 1.5 degrees is nothing to stress about.
Even if it was a real number and not just numberwang from some maladjusted equation.
GW/CC is the pretext which The Monster is using to ram through the final parts of its digital prison.
If they actually cared about the environment so many things would be different, so many that there would be no need for a massive psyops marketing campaign. The fact they are terrorising children in schools, before those children develop essential critical reasoning displays just how Evil their agenda is. Children have killed themselves because they feel so despondent over this stuff. Over a made-up Agenda for domination and control.
Peace.
