“Early on, by June 2020 I realised we weren’t going to be let out without resistance because I’d written a book called The End of America, and I’d looked at how tyrants close open societies whether they’re on the left or the right. And they always take the same ten steps. And step 10 is where we were, emergency law, Where we are now …” Naomi Wolf in conversation with with Patrick Coffin
“There are ten steps to fascism that leaders who want to crush a democracy will always take. The same ten steps. Whether the leaders are on the left or the right, it doesn’t matter.
You start with invoking a terrifying internal or external threat. It can be a real threat that is hyped. You go on to surveil citizens. You create militia groups unaccountable to the rule of law. You create a gulag. You start to demonise whistleblowers and critics.
You start to call dissent treason, espionage or subversion.
And at step ten you declare emergency law. Well here we are, at step 10.
We were seeing a wholesale race to exploit what was messaged as a global pandemic, in such a way as to strip us of our remaining liberties. To terraform [nations] conceptually into being ready to accept a CCP-style World Economic Forum-guided post-humane and post-constitutional world.
A lot of the policies that were rolled out as related to a public health emergency really served to kill off that human advantage and transfer assets to big tech companies.
I wish people would wake up sooner … These people have no respect for human life. This is a new kind of war. It’s a war that the Chinese Communist Party has developed very skillfully. Stalinists developed it skillfully …
These people will stop at nothing. If you cling to lies and if you cling to your professional status, your children will live as slaves and so will you. It’s time to be brave. If we are a little bit brave now, we don’t have to be horrifically brave in the future. ~ Naomi Wolf in conversation with Dr Joseph Mercola
