So your complaint is that society might improve somewhat at the hands of governments, multinational corporations, and NGOs?

Huh? No, society will improve when we shrink government, reduce the volume and scope of small business killing regulations, change the tax code to enhance investment in job-producing production instead of passive selfish returns, stop exporting our jobs and industries, stop China from stealing all of our IP, get people back to work, reform the education system to develop economically self-sufficient adults instead of programmed clones of the woke sickness and Marxism. And provide tax and other incentives to spur job-producing investment in territories with low economic circumstances.

It all starts with a commitment to shrink government as big government colludes with big business to prevent all these other things, because they are the threat to big business. And we also should consider breaking up some of the larger corporations that are clearly into monopoly territory.

See, the thing is most of what you posted is respectable politics - just stuff I disagree with. Expect for the Marxist and woke sickness stuff, which again, is simply made up.

But none of that has to do with January 6th, an insurrection, or a committee. So maybe lead with this if you don't want people to roll their eyes at you.

Nor do it have to do with whatever you're trying to argue the Great Reset is.

See the topic of the article. It is all connected.

Sorry, I'm doing a plain read of the article and not a conspiracist-read of the article. I just see a bunch of large organizations trying to create wealthy sustainable economies.

So you think there is nothing political behind the Democrat and media attention to the Jan 6 protests?

There are about 80 billionaires in the world. All but one is male. Most are white males. The have their personal assets managed by Blackrock, Vanguard, State Street, and several of the big banks. These trillion dollar asset management investment businesses own the controlling interest in most of the mainstream media, and also most of the multinational corporations. The CCP also has ownership in the much of the same through these investment companies.

Pay attention to the mainstream corporate media reporting... primarily the headlines and the lines delivered by the media talking heads... and the same lines delivered by leading Democrat politicians. They are all the same at the same time. There is a coordination that is undeniable and unmistakable.

Jan-6 was a planned political media circus that some idiot Trump supporters played right into. The Democrats have nothing going on that the voting republic wants, so they can only keep up a negative media circus to try and brand their opponent as deplorable so that other voters might vote for the slightly less stinking pile of crap.

But the Trump side is largely fake crap ginned up by a 24x7 negative news cycle. The Democrat side is real crap. Real economic misery, real embarrassing and needlessly deadly withdrawals from Afghanistan, real massive mistakes in pandemic related policy, real explosion in crime due to left extreme policies that are anti-law enforcement and pro criminal. The American public is much worse off today than when Trump was in office even considering the rational impact of the pandemic. The Democrats know it. The billionaire boys club knows it. They are all at risk for the hammer coming down in the mid-terms and likely also 2024. The wrath of the Republicans for what they have done will be profound. So they are stuck in desperation going full hyperbole on Jan-6.

Here is the thing... committed left leaners will lap it up. But they already hate Trump and his supporters. However, the rest of the voting population can do the critical thinking. They can compare the government and media response to the months of burning cities from leftist protests and riots. They can see that the full on partisan AG has put these Trump supporters in jail for over a year without charges and without reasonable due process after liberal DAs across the land have let off and failed to prosecute the violent thugs of Antifa and BLM.

Americans hate these massive displays of power abused unfairness.

"So you think there is nothing political behind the Democrat and media attention to the Jan 6 protests?"

Yes, Democrats have a political interest in the country not collapsing. Because if the country collapses, there is no Democratic Party. All you've noticed here is they have a healthy sense of self-preservation.

"There are about 80 billionaires in the world. All but one is male. Most are white males. The have their personal assets managed by Blackrock, Vanguard, State Street, and several of the big banks."

No, according to Forbes there are more than 2,000; many of them Chinese, and many of the non-US ones probably have little affiliation with the companies you described. And even so, "billionaires manage their assets via large banks" is about as revelatory as "people who have to haul RV's drive trucks."

"Pay attention to the mainstream corporate media reporting... primarily the headlines and the lines delivered by the media talking heads... and the same lines delivered by leading Democrat politicians."

No, these people spend half their days criticizing the Democratic Party for not being liberal enough. If you ever happened to wander over to MSNBC you might notice that.

"Jan-6 was a planned political media circus that some idiot Trump supporters played right into."

Yeah, Donald Trump planned it, and his supporters listened to him. The "media circus" is Fox News and the lame influencer class that exists to make money from them.

"The Democrat side is real crap. Real economic misery, real embarrassing and needlessly deadly withdrawals from Afghanistan, real massive mistakes in pandemic related policy, real explosion in crime due to left extreme policies that are anti-law enforcement and pro criminal."

$1,200 checks and 3.9% unemployment are economic misery? You and I have very different definitions of misery.

I am not sure if you understand how withdrawals work but when you lose a war they usually result in misery. Perhaps you would have liked to stay in Afghanistan forever.

Most of our mistakes in pandemic-related policy relate to a lack of testing and inability to contain the virus. And while Biden hasn't been perfect, he passes over the low, low bar of not wanting to inject bleach to fix it.

Finally, crime has risen ultimately almost every jurisdiction in the US. The state with the highest murder rate in 2020? Louisiana, a state with plenty of local corruption, guns, and no liberal bail laws.

"The billionaire boys club knows it. They are all at risk for the hammer coming down in the mid-terms and likely also 2024."

Please, the billionaire boys club will do the same thing in these years as they do every year: lobby hard for policy that increases their wealth, see it pass, and enjoy it. Donald Trump will be right up there with them, because he's a member.

Finally, "the rest of the voting population" may or may not be doing critical thinking - I can't read their minds - but they are in fact Trump's chief enablers, and the results next time will be the same as the results this time: bankruptcy, opioid deaths, pandemic deaths, and more crime.
