Thanks, Riley. Pretty thin thread of hope, i must say. There is the fact that while the capitalist system has a fundamental dynamic of concentration/centralization, of which the WHO's increasing control over world health care is an example, it also has a simultaneous fundamental dynamic of centrifugal splintering. There are interest groups within the global elite, they have some mutually contradictory interests, particularly in that there can only be one Number One, and conflicts between them constantly emerge and re-emerge. It's very possible that they are unable to reach a mutually satisfactory formula to base the next stage of global looting upon. This will have little to do with any alleged kindness on their part, and more with not having enough to share. "We can share the women, we can share the wine. We can share what we got of yours 'cause we done shared all of mine."

Very interesting.

I have wondered the degree to which world events might be planned or partially faked. Here is an interesting thought: the "anti-vaxxers" side with Russia, providing further justification for throwing them into concentration camps in the West.

Sigh.
