The Digital-Financial Complex

Civil Defense Perspectives, Vol. 35 #6

Looking back on November 2020 from the perspective of September 2021, it looks as though not much changed as time rocketed by. The narrative is still all about COVID-19. The promised warp-speed vaccines have arrived, but the fear and oppression remain. Governments’ unintelligible and often contradictory measures have only made the situation worse. Calls for 3rd, 4th, and 5th vaccinations show that they have failed.

The situation is unique in the history of the world, states German financial journalist Ernst Wolff in an Oct 19, 2019, essay  (tinyurl.com/452vj3ry) and a August 2021 lecture on “Uncovering the Corona Narrative” (tinyurl.com/2x6kjwkr). Never before has the entire world been placed under such a coercive regime.

This is not because of SARS-CoV-2. The narrative of a deadly virus that is an existential threat cannot be sustained. 

Franklin Roosevelt said that nothing in politics happens by accident; you can bet that it was planned. These words are especially alarming given what has happened with COVID-19, Wolff states. The economy is in a shambles. Worldwide production is in complete disarray. Supply chains are broken; harvests are being lost; essential semiconductors are scarce. The constant threat of new restrictions keeps problems from being solved. In China, the third largest port terminal in the world was shut down because of a single positive test in a worker. Small and medium-size businesses—the biggest source of jobs and tax revenue—are driven to the wall by constant uncertainty and harsher regulation.

The world is also beset with brutally increasing inflation, especially in raw materials, producer prices, and food. But the flood of money-printing continues. Recently nations and banks have thrown $20 trillion into the world monetary system, with no end in sight. In the U.S. 40 million cannot feed themselves.

Cui bono?

Why are politicians creating one disaster after another, Wolff asks. To answer this, one must ask, “Who has an interest in this global agenda? And who profits from it?” The answer is plain, he states. The biggest profiteer and the most important string-puller is the digital-financial complex: the largest information technology (IT) concerns headed by the biggest asset managers of our time. These include Apple, Google parent Alphabet, Amazon, Microsoft, and Facebook. The market capitalization of these companies alone is an incredible $5.1 trillion; the combined GDP of Germany, France, and Italy is $8.6 trillion. The biggest asset managers—BlackRock, Vanguard, State Street, and Fidelity are significantly involved in all IT companies. Together they manage $220.6 trillion; the combined GDP of all 28 countries of the EU amounted to $15.7 trillion. Their financial clout is not the only concern. The IT companies control hundreds of thousands of other companies because they organize the digital systems and thus have a constant overview of their data streams.

“The IT industry is nothing other than a tumor that over past years has metastasized into all other branches of the economy, to make them dependent on it and to completely dominate them,” Wolff states. Also, the asset managers are involved in every large undertaking and are able to influence every popular brand in the world. BlackRock’s Aladdin Data Cloud has the greatest accumulation of financial information that the world has ever seen, which it uses behind the scenes to influence the largest central banks, e.g. the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank (EZB). So we have a unique historic mix of raw financial power and discretionary power over an unimaginably gigantic data pool. These companies had a huge business upswing in this crisis, gaining the largest profits in their entire history in a single quarter, and their advantage is continuously accelerating.

The digital-financial complex is the global power center, which drives everything. It stands far above all governments, and is in a position at any time to bring every government in the world to its knees. We must examine its methods. It seems as though it is undermining the very system from which it profits. But this misses the reality of the situation: the digital-financial complex has no choice but to continue its present course.

Acts of Desperation

It’s not as though the complex can increase its wealth and power and then sit back and enjoy its winnings. The system to which it owes its existence can no longer be kept alive with the previous business model. It was very close to death in the world financial crisis of 2007-2008. Without mobilizing huge taxes and instructing central banks to create massive amounts of money out of nothing, the system would have collapsed. This continued over the next 12 years, with 700 decreases in interest rates, making the system ever more unstable. In March 2020, the threatened collapse was postponed only through a final feat of  strength, the reduction of interest rates to zero and a final injection of billions of fiat currency. But now there is a qualitatively different situation. A further deferral would require negative interest rates, which would destroy the foundation of the current banking system. Injecting more billions would cause hyperinflation. The choices:  total collapse or worthless money—what to do?

Out of public view, the digital-financial complex is preparing a new system, while plundering the dying one. Since March 2020 we have seen the deliberate destruction of the world economy to the exclusive expansion of the complex. The new system will  destroy cash and normal banking, and introduce digital money from central banks. Digital money can be created in infinite amounts from nothing, and operate with negative interest rates. It enables governments to oversee and control all transactions, easily impose differential taxes and fines, and cancel our ability to make any transactions. It enables an all-encompassing dictatorship accomplished through money.

There is one huge snag: resistance by the public, with enormous social unrest, Wolff points out. So, the digital-financial complex has apparently developed the brilliant strategy of turning the situation around: Instead of a gradual introduction, provoking resistance, cause social chaos first and introduce digital money as the answer in the form of the universal basic income (UBI). Out of maximum chaos, even to the extent of worldwide civil war, bring maximum control in the guise of humanitarian aid.

We are entering turbulent and dangerous times, Wolff states. Yet the opportunity to turn the tide and open the door to a new and better era has never been greater (see p 2).


Read Their Damn Books

In her 1991 address to the 9th annual meeting of Doctors for Disaster Preparedness, former Washington governor Dixy Lee Ray said: “In the motion picture called Patton, General Patton saw Rommel coming up the valley with his tanks in formation. Patton put down his binoculars and said, ‘I read your damn book’” (https://tinyurl.com/rrax53ar).

Ernst Wolff writes that if his message sounds like a conspiracy theory, you should read the books by founder of the World Economic Forum, Klaus Schwab, who has been gathering the global elite in the Swiss ski resort of Davos every January since 1971: The Fourth Industrial Revolution (published in 2017) and COVID-19: The Great Reset (published July 2020).

Schwab writes: “Many of us wonder when we will return to normality. The short answer is: never.” And further: “The world as we knew it in the first months of 2020 no longer exists. It has dissolved in the context of the pandemic.”

 The coronavirus pandemic marks “a fundamental turning point in our global development,” he writes, and warns that social unrest or revolts on the streets are imminent.

Two historical changes will transform our lives from the ground up: the collapse of the banking system that has existed for some 600 years, and the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which through the use of artificial intelligence will cause the worldwide labor market to collapse in its present form.

Enter the pandemic. The consequences are “comparable to those of a world war” and “the possibilities for change and the resulting new order are now unlimited.”

If you don’t believe there is a plan, Wolff says, note that The Great Reset, less than 4 months after the worldwide lockdown, gives exact instructions on how to use COVID-19 to creatively destroy the world and build a new world reminiscent of the darkest days of National Socialism. This sounds shockingly like a carefully planned apocalypse. The agenda is not only planned but can hardly be surpassed in evil and deceitfulness. Who would have imagined depriving people of their freedom, and sentencing 100 million to starvation “for their own protection”—and who would have imagined putting an unapologetic eugenicist Klaus Schwab in a position  to spread his gruesome vision worldwide of melding the human being with AI. This should freeze the blood of any normal thinking and feeling person.


The Stakeholders

The UN signed an agreement with the World Economic Forum in 2019, and the cooperation on the Fourth Industrial Revolution is a part of that otherwise short and vague agreement.

A huge number of financial and data management companies, along with Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, and other pharmaceutical companies, are corporate partners of the CDC Foundation (tinyurl.com/f6p45rk), which allows private gifts to CDC.

The top three Pfizer shareholders are Vanguard, BlackRock, and State Street (tinyurl.com/3ch43yrv).

Vanguard and BlackRock are the top two owners of Time Warner, Comcast, Disney, and News Corp, four of the six media companies that control more than 90% of the U.S. media landscape. Vanguard is the largest shareholder of BlackRock. Vanguard itself has a unique structure that makes its ownership more difficult to discern, but many of the oldest, richest families in the world can be linked to Vanguard funds (tinyurl.com/sy2hycht).


The Directors

The WEF has brought together business leaders, politicians, media creators, those with commanding roles. In the 1990s they were subjected to a targeted training program. Since 1992 the Global Leaders of Tomorrow and since 2005 the Young Global Leaders have received a systematic onboarding schooling from WEF. People in positions of power—e.g., Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Angela Merkel, Emanuel Macron—have been trained by WEF or sit on its leadership board. It’s not just the 1300 members of this tightly networked elite pulling strings worldwide. Since 2012 there is also group of 10,000 under-30-year-old Global Shapers who have joined the club, Wolff explains.


Why They Will Fail

Klaus Schwab’s “window of opportunity” can really be ours, Wolff suggests. The pack of lies is collapsing. The attempt to legitimize it is resulting in ever more absurd arguments and rabid defamation. The media’s vehemence testifies not to strength but to weakness. Whoever spreads more grotesque lies with more emphasis such as the pandemic of the unvaccinated, declaring healthy people to be Public Enemy number 1, and whoever locks down entire countries for a single test case do this only because they have run out of arguments and in desperation are blindly lashing out. The credibility of those who led us into this disaster is being buried deeper day by day. As Abraham Lincoln said: You cannot fool all the people all the time.

As the other side gets more and more entangled in their lies, we have the opportunity for a vast and comprehensive plan of enlightenment: About the real background of the alleged pandemic, the real balance of power in the world, and the real threats we face. Even their new currency would not be the end of the world. Digital central bank money can function only on the basis of a comprehensive coercive system. One must constantly introduce new price controls, constantly increase the UBI, and create permanent inflation, leading to continuous impoverishment and a constant state of conflict with the authorities.

Our trump card is that the other side does not act according to rules of reason but out of motives of greed and power, bringing itself into ever greater difficulties, in Wolff’s view. We must use their weakness. They want more money and more possessions, and to have all the weapons in the world. But their power rests not on those things but solely on the ignorance of the majority of the people. The majority does not yet understand the evil game the minority is playing with them.

In the past 18 months, the digital-financial complex has gotten itself into a situation it cannot escape, and which, out of despair, forces it to cross ever more red lines. For us, that means we must keep the peace, consistently expose all lies, and show the people, piece by piece, why and by whom they are being deceived. We could then not only solve the current problem but use the crisis to turn the direction of human history and open the door to a new and better era, Wolff states.

The agenda for a Great Reset is not new. The aim is destruction of Western Civilization, freedom, free will, and the human soul—and its replacement with a new global feudalism with every “asset” controlled by a tiny elite (tinyurl.com/3j2tphjf). Climate change was not creating enough fear. Wolff suggests why the elite itself is desperate, and accelerating the “progress” is so urgent. But this may grant us our best—and only?—chance.
