Dr Werner's comments momentarily threw me off....so this is wild. I just wonder how they are going to convince the masses that this is the ONLY acceptable form of identification required to participate in commercial transactions.
I dont think they will convince the masses. Some (a very small population percentage) have already accepted this and are all in on these systems, but many more are in vehement opposition. Caught in between are the masses... will those in opposition give the masses a reason to mobilize? Or will the majority capitulate instead of stand together?

If you have a plan to get everyone hooked on UBI, then...

It just wouldn't have made sense to crash the (financial) system then when you don't have the digital ID and CBDC platforms ready for roll out
Some articles from 2019...pre-covid

But it was built by Silicon Valley and not by the government.

Many Americans might find the power of China's social credit system astonishing. But a newly published Fast Company story argues that people in the U.S. are already beholden to a similar system — it's just established and enforced by private companies instead of the government.

The magazine provides several examples to bolster the claim.

Life insurance companies can now base a person's premiums on the content of their social media feeds, for example. Meanwhile, a company called PatronScan maintains a list of "objectionable customers" that bars and restaurants can use to exclude certain visitors.

And that's nothing compared to larger platforms. Airbnb now has more than 6 million listings, so a ban from that app can dramatically impact a person's ability to find accommodations. And Airbnb can ban anyone it wants to — it doesn't even need to give them a reason.


The sanctions to discourage bad behavior show how deep the techniques of control can be in a modern totalitarian state. People with low social-credit scores are publicly shamed. Their internet speeds are reduced; they’re denied good jobs and banned from air or train travel. Their children are kept out of prestigious schools, and even their pets can be taken from them. The ultimate goal is to create a wholly docile and submissive citizenry.

French philosopher Michel Foucault thought that Western societies did the same thing, in their way. In “Discipline and Punish” (1975), he argued that through their schools, factories and the military, free-market societies turn their citizens into passive and unquestioning automatons and thereby build a metaphorical “panopticon.” The reference was to British philosopher Jeremy Bentham’s proposal for a circular prison in which each cell would face the guard at the very center, so that he could see every inmate at a glance. The prisoners would know they could be watched at any time—and so would the guard.

The metaphor of Western society as a panopticon caught on among radical leftists who needed an explanation for why Americans rejected socialism. As fanciful as that was, it did acknowledge that pervasive social control would be oppressive. But does the left still think so, now that it controls important institutions including higher education and much of the media and big business?

This is another reason I have been beating on the Max Blumenthal network so hard...

It has been clearly laid out by the American public/private/academic/etc. tech experts who went over to BUILD the actual infrastructure for the CCP's Uighur surveillance state and citizen social credit systems that this was a beta test for a structure which was eventually intended for the US (and therefore the world)...

Max Blumenthal is doing his part to push these agendas in service of the DC elites he is spawned from and the pseudo-Socialist, Jewish supremacist masters and handlers he serves... https://vigilantcitizenforums.com/threads/max-blumenthal-grayzone-exposed.9694/

I agree. It would be naive to think that the very people who built China's system wouldn't return home and build the exact same system. The system is already in place, it only awaits some critical pieces inorder for it to go live.
This was posted last year in the covid thread, so i will repost it here.

Allegedly, the Western social credit systems will only have rewards and not punishments...unlike China's. Are we to assume that these vaxx punishments (as in Greece & Quebec, Canada) aren't going to make a comeback when UBI is rolled out with a digital ID + Currency? Ofcourse...the rich and powerful will be exempt from all this.
