Are you paying more attention to what you say these days?
Do you feel you must conform to a prevailing narrative lest you offend someone, or worse, impact your career prospects?
If so, you have succumbed to a doctrine that has been decades in the framing and which now influences every aspect of our democratic way of life. [emphasis, links added]
From school to the workplace, Cultural Marxism is gaining hold, instructing us that freedom of thought is a deadly sin.
Like ancient witchcraft, the doctrine’s authors have twisted natural climate change to increasingly control human behavior.
Whether it’s deciding on what is acceptable speech and how we must vote, prohibiting gas stoves in new homes, or deciding which cars we drive and what foods we eat, Big Brother is now everywhere, insisting on our obedience.
The current high priests driving the doctrine reside within the United Nations and the World Economic Forum.
With major input from Beijing, they are propagating the ‘Great reset of capitalism’ that promises bigger, ever more controlling governments to ensure ‘better and fairer outcomes.’
Those outcomes are to be achieved by rich countries, responsible for ‘excessive levels of greenhouse gas emissions’, paying trillions of dollars in climate reparations to developing countries, for the environmental damage they cause.
Australia has signed up to this.
Meanwhile, China, which boasts the world’s second-biggest economy, the most billionaires, the largest standing army, hypersonic missiles, and successful Mars and Moon landings, retains ‘developing nation’ status.
Having invented anthropogenic climate change as an existential threat, the globalists driving the agenda have made fear the weapon of choice.
They are ably supported by weather bureaus, other government agencies, politicians, academics, and the media who reinforce doomsday scenarios at every opportunity.
For example, Australia’s Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) recently chose a few warm September days to announce the beginning of another El Nino event. Despite cautioning its slow development might limit its strength, the damage was in the headlines.
It’s all Emergency Management Minister Murray Watt needed to warn that heatwaves are a silent killer that ‘lead to more deaths each year than other natural disasters.’
News agencies as far away as France warned ‘Australia is facing its most intense bushfire season since the “Black Summer” of 2019-2020 when a series of out-of-control infernos raged across the eastern seaboard.’
The declaration was also enough for the University of Melbourne to bleat, ‘The evolving frequency of extreme events and conditions… challenges our conventional understanding of what constitutes “extreme”…’, scarily adding, ‘By failing to deal with the root causes of climate change, we will forever be putting Band-Aids on a gaping wound.’
They are right about one thing. What once was accepted as normal is now considered extreme.
George Orwell warned us, ‘Those who control the present control the past, and those who control the past control the future.’
The BoM agrees. As scientist Dr Jennifer Marohasy, among others, repeatedly demonstrates through peer-reviewed publications and elsewhere, Australia’s historical temperatures are dropped to cool the past without scientific justification.
Dr. Marohasy says, ‘This has the effect of making the present appear hotter – it is a way of generating more global warming for the same weather.’
The Bureau’s regular predictions of the demise of the iconic Great Barrier Reef, due to ‘more frequent and severe bleaching events…’, is a powerful headline grabber.
However, a recent Australian Institute of Marine Science report finds that coral coverage on the northern and central parts of the Great Barrier Reef is at its highest level since monitoring began 36 years ago.
According to a poll, only three percent of Australians know this. The media has done its job.
And, should Mother Nature throw a curve ball, the BoM is there to catch it.
For when 2022 looked like being the first in 163 years of Sydney Observatory Hill monitoring, that temperatures would not exceed 32 degrees Celsius, the Bureau leaned a solar panel against a hedge directed at the Stevenson screen.
It was a good try but alas, Mother Nature prevailed.
One can only imagine the media pile-on should a 163-year high have been recorded.
Sensing the public’s fear of anthropogenic climate change is beginning to wane, officialdom has begun further tightening the net.
Already the government’s media censor and global warming disciple, the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA), has stepped up its scrutiny. Only approved narratives escape censure.
For example, worried that viewers may be influenced by the optimistic Aims Barrier Reef report, ACMA was quick to jump on a segment on Sky News that failed to mention that the reef’s splendid recovery was still at risk. Who knew ACMA employed marine biologists?
Soon it won’t matter.
Under the Albanese government’s proposed misinformation and disinformation laws, ACMA will gain sweeping powers to require any Australian to appear at a time and place of its choosing to answer questions about misinformation or disinformation.
Heavy fines will apply for non-attendance.
That threat alone will put a brake on free speech and evidenced-based judgments.
Except for governments, which will be exempt, even though throughout the pandemic, they were the source of much misinformation and disinformation.
Still, climate activists like billionaire renewable energy investor Michael Cannon-Brookes seem relaxed about more government intervention and looming mandatory climate-related reporting. Why not? They stand to make more billions from the net-zero 2050 witchcraft.
Meanwhile, a self-satisfied, sensible, ‘developing’ China, ‘will set its own path and not be influenced by outside factors’.
As the world’s largest emitter and building two coal-fired power stations a week, Beijing’s determination renders the entire global climate change initiatives crippling Western societies an exercise in complete futility.
