Two days ago, this event took place, re Scaling Up Digital ID.

www.weforum.org/events/global-technology-governance-summit-2021/sessions/scaling-up-digital-identity-systems

A written summary here

sociable.co/government-and-policy/vaccine-passports-drive-forced-consent-standardization-digital-identity-schemes-wef-summit/

It refers to vaccine passports in many ways.

Some posters seem to think it's about showing your vax status. It isn't. These tech developments are happening in front of us. No secrecy, no conspiracy. If you are happy with it, great.

Quotes include:

“I’m hoping with the desire and global demand for some sort of vaccine passport — so that people can get traveling and working again — will drive forced consent, standardization, and frankly, cooperation across the world” — Sandra Ro, CEO at Global Blockchain Business Council


“Our goal is to enable all life situations with this digital ID” — Mykhailo Fedorov, Ukraine’s Minister of Digital Transformation

He hopes to achieve this in 3 years.

I should point out too, that Trump withdrew funding from the WHO last year, and this was set to take place this July, but Biden restored it.

If the USA had gone ahead with the withdrawal, it would have made the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation the largest funder of the WHO.

Its so shady that this is even possible.

LittleRed53 · 12/04/2021 16:25

Another point RE Gates (man has his fingers in a lot of pies...), he is a vocal supporter of replacing meat with lab grown meat- he has large investments in the stuff:

www.msn.com/en-us/health/nutrition/bill-gates-wants-us-to-eat-100percent-synthetic-beef-he-has-a-point/ar-BB1dQ4Ic

And he is also now the single largest private farmland owner in the USA:

www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2021/apr/05/bill-gates-climate-crisis-farmland

Agriculture, especially cattle farming, has been targeted as a big contributor to the climate crisis (whether or not the facts bear this out...) Taking control of agriculture harmonises completely with the UN's agenda 2030.

I agree with a PP who said Gates is not just some amazingly altruistic billionaire.

btwwhichonespink · 12/04/2021 16:36

Yes so our list so far is Bill Gates wants to vaccinate us with synthetic gene based vaccines, feed us synthetic beef and block out the sun.

All to save us!

Seems to me it's him and his money we need saving from. Does anyone think Bill Gates or anyone with money will be eating synthetic meat? I don't.

btwwhichonespink · 12/04/2021 16:41

The other creepy experiment he is planning with a British company is the release of genetically modified mosquitos into the Florida Keys to 'breed out' malaria and zika.

It sounds like a great idea but I guess he hasn't read the butterfly effect. Like blocking out the sun with chalk, he has no idea of the consequences of the experiment. We know nature is holistic, not a computer algorithm. It's not a + b = c in nature.

Who knows what the outcome of releasing these mutants might be.

AcornAutumn · 12/04/2021 16:47

I thought the mozzies were released last year but now I see it's due for this year.

Such fun 🙄

@btwwhichonespink Ugh yeah, Bill Gates the geoengineer!

www.forbes.com/sites/arielcohen/2021/01/11/bill-gates-backed-climate-solution-gains-traction-but-concerns-linger/

It does get my goat a bit, this particular one, as anyone who tried to say a word about geoengineering (often referred to as chemtrails) used to be absolutely mocked into the ground, despite the fact that the technology has existed and patents have been registered for it for decades!

But now it's been fed out to the public so that people shrug and say, yeah, geoengineering, so what? Yesterday's news.

But yesterday you were a nutjob if you even said such a thing existed!!

The gaslighting is insane.

Yes it was definitely supposed to be last year as I remember being worried about it but just checked the detail for my post and see it was postponed.
AcornAutumn · 12/04/2021 16:49

btw do you know why it was postponed?

TheReluctantPhoenix · 12/04/2021 16:51

It is easy to conflate a lot of things occurring simultaneously and to imagine that they are a conspiracy.

COVID lockdowns: I think that they have proved to be essential in containing a pandemic virus. The data is out there and clear for all who wish to look.

Vaccinations: Again, for most, our tried and tested best weapon against pathogenic diseases. You can argue about whether they are ‘experimental’ but most want them if offered, and they are far less experimental than being inoculated with a large dose of the Corona SARS 2 virus via being infected.

Vaccine passports and test and trace: more controversial as it does mean giving up one set of freedoms in exchange for another. And it is best enabled via the black box of big tech. Personally I think less intrusive than an active Facebook account, but I can see why people are wary,

The ‘great reset’ and ‘green’ agenda: We need to get on top of climate change, and fast. Although not any risk to ‘the planet’, which has coped just fine with far higher temperatures, it is a threat to our species, or at least a significant proportion of it. So everyone is singing from the same song sheet, as they are all solving the same problem. The aims are, on the whole, laudable.

Are these all parts of one giant whole conspiracy? Personally I find it inconceivable and think the conspiracy is mischievous people making links between all the above, basically in return for clicks on websites.

What is true and I can see makes people uneasy is that the rich and powerful anticipate trends and try to enrich themselves out of it (such as a hedgie making £30 mio out of intermediating a PPE contract). And many are hypocritical, making the little people suffer as they ignore the rules that they have made.

AcornAutumn · 12/04/2021 16:54

Reluctant I don't study threads intently but my impression is that most of us here don't think there's a plot a la Guy Fawkes, but more that things happening in clear sight, many with high levels pf promotion, are not good for the majority of people.

btwwhichonespink · 12/04/2021 16:58

@AcornAutumn looks like they started getting permission in 2020 in order to release in 2021. Only one vote was postponed due to covid but they now have permission to go ahead this year.

Wildswim · 13/04/2021 13:09

The Sunday Times this week had two articles supporting vaccine passports. One a column by Dominic Lawson who wants to travel, and another more sinister piece saying joined-up, government controlled Big Data linked to ID cards (which vaccine passports basically will be) is a foregone conclusion - a matter of when not if. He says it's a great idea for all our personal, health and finance information to be held in one big system by the government.

Terracotta9 · 13/04/2021 13:13

So it’s financial information too now, according to him? Well, that’s some nice mission creep there.

Wildswim · 13/04/2021 13:21

It's James Ball. In News Review, entitled 'We've happily handed over so much data. Why then do we still ball at ID cards?'

He extols the system in Estonia where block chain tech allows people's 'banking, healthcare, voting' details are all on one massive system that gives them easy access to government platforms. Lucky them.

Yep, he suggest our tax records would be part of this centralised data system.

Wildswim · 13/04/2021 13:22

balk, not ball

Roonerspismed · 13/04/2021 14:03

What a twat

Many of the Sunday Times columnists show a lot of common sense

This is exactly what vax passports were about from the start, I thought.

I admit, I was so focused on that worry, it took me a while to realise some people thought it was just a record of your vaccine, though that's bad enough.

I've been offline for 24 hours. So much can change...am
I right in thinking that Europeans are quite reluctant to take the vaccine?

SmallTownSouthernGirl · 14/04/2021 19:13

The EU were quietly discussing vaccine passports before covid broke out. That's a 'smoking gun', I'd say.

ec.europa.eu/health/sites/health/files/vaccination/docs/2019-2022_roadmap_en.pdf

That document was last updated in Q3 (autumn) 2019.

Wildswim · 14/04/2021 22:36

Wow @SmallTownSouthernGirl the timing on that EU Commission document is very suspect.

LittleRed53 · 14/04/2021 23:17

@AcornAutumn I don't know about other places in Europe, but I'm in France and there are plenty of people here with a 'rather wait and see how things pan out' view of the vaccines.

Apparently there are now 500,000 people being vaccinated here each day, and on the news they keep talking about the percentage needed for herd immunity, but while I know some people (older and with health problems) who have been very keen for it, there is definitely a general feeling of not being confident in astra zeneca, especially.

LittleRed53 · 15/04/2021 08:16

Another update on world food supply chains being attacked or falling into difficulty:

m.youtube.com/watch?v=15AF_59PhRk&feature=youtu.be

Reporting on how, in Taiwan, the government has decided water supplies should be sent to factories making chips (essential for smartphones and other technologies) at the cost of rice farms being put out of production permanently.

If you haven't heard anything about the increasing issues with food production and the global food supply chain, it's a very serious issue that is quickly getting worse, and ties in closely with issues of technocracy, government control and UN agenda 2030, among other agendas.

BelleHathor · 15/04/2021 09:14

Thanks for the video LittleRed53, an undercover reporter recorded a CNN director saying that the public has Covid fatigue and that CNN would be pivoting towards "Climate change" @ 05:30 mins in the video.
m.youtube.com/watch?v=Dv8Zy-JwXr4
Taiwan is interesting as China has been breaching their Airspace repeatedly over the last 3 months, so they are effectively engaged in a "Cold War" which may go hot at any minute. USA has a fleet stationed in the South China sea and Japan is also sending ships. UK as per usual doesn't want upset Beijing so the HMS Queen Elizabeth will avoid Taiwan
www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/04/14/hms-queen-elizabeth-will-steer-clear-provoking-china-first-major/amp/. Russia has also stationed 80 thousand soldiers on the Ukrainian border, so in terms geopolitics there's so much going on.

Wildswim · 15/04/2021 11:59

David Attenborough new documentary. About how 'humans are the intruder'. The world would be far better off without us. And we need a new normal post Covid.

Values have been inverted. Humans are not superior to animals or the natural world any more - we are a nuisance.

SmallTownSouthernGirl · 15/04/2021 12:10

@Wildswim - and some argue that a plan is underway to address that.

food for thought...
