(Thread) Everyone should read this. It's an account of Klaus Schwab and 40 years of Davos influence starting in 1971 - now

http://www3.weforum.org/docs/WEF_First40Years_Book_2010.pdf

1/ "Schwab spent the 1966- 1967 academic year at Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government, where he earned an (MPA). During his stay, he had forged a close friendship with the legendary Dean Baker and had met other prominent Harvard academics including Henry
Kissinger"
lol

2/ The WEF was originally know as the "The inaugural European Management Symposium, which was held in Davos from 24 January to 7 February, was intended to allow top managers of corporations to interact with all their
stakeholders."

3/ "It was also conceived as an opportunity for senior European managers to learn about the latest management techniques and concepts from the most engaging thought leaders in business, including prominent professors from the top US business schools."

4/ there was strong participation from the Commission of the European Communities:
* Vice-President, Raymond Barre (more on him later)

5/ In 1972 Pierre Werner, President of Luxemburg attended who presented the Werner Plan

* created the foundation for the European Monetary Union (unified currency).

6/ Other people in attendance were:

* Wernher von Braun (Deputy Associate Administrator at (NASA)
* Charles Levinson (trade unionist & labour intellectual & General Secretary of the International Federation of Chemical & General Workers’ Federation

7/ Two developments distinguished this Davos meeting

1. Aurelio Peccei & The Limits to Growth (Club of Rome) where the sustainability of global economic growth was questioned.

Remember everything goes back to this: https://twitter.com/unspinthespin/status/1285219584568700930

8/

2. The development of Schwab's code of ethics....which is now known as the Davos Manifesto.

In my life a manifesto is never the mark of balanced thinking lol

9/ and here it is bc I don't have time to write it out

You may need your reading glasses.

10/

In 1974 you can see the beginning of the involvement of the Catholic Church.

"Dom Hélder Câmara, the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Olinda and Recife, Brazil, made a notable appearance, bolstering the Forum’s role as a platform for provocative yet vital voices."

11/
"Câmara had been invited to Davos despite the fact
that he was considered persona non grata by many governments and business leaders. He had dubbed himself “the spokesperson of those two-thirds of humanity who suffer from the unfair distribution of nature’s resources.”

12/ All of this BS is cloaked in social justice. The thing is nothing about these people shows any real interest outside of global control IMO

13/ "In his address, Dom Hélder predicted that developing countries could some day challenge and clash with the leading economic powers. “Let’s hope by the Almighty God that this confrontation will not force them into using arms.”

14/ "He criticized multinationals for keeping so much of mankind in appalling conditions. He called for a higher social responsibility, fairer wealth distribution and
a reassessment of “the false values of a ‘waste society’” to achieve prosperity for all people"

15/ They also invited Captain Jacques-Yves Cousteau "He blamed the inaction of governments in promoting
environmental protection on “political immaturity” and urged leading industrial nations to take
action." OR

16/ “Or else they should create a supranational authority –
precedents already exist – to whom they would transfer the respective rights of sovereignty.”

Hmmm ok

17/ The same Cousteau who is grandfather to Alexandra Cousteau - an associate of Epstein.

All of these people connected back.

Something to note https://www.chicagotribune.com/nation-world/ct-nw-jeffrey-epstein-ghislaine-maxwell-documents-20200731-cxjeetckknbzjnl6rwuybrhjpy-story.html

18/ by 1975 Klaus Schwab’s stakeholder theory was beginning to evolve into a broader concept of corporate global citizenship. In an editorial published in the
Zurich newspaper Neue Zürcher Zeitung, Schwab reflected on the role of the CEO as politician"

YEP....

19/ in 76 they rolled out a cooperative exchange programme with UNIDO (UN industrial development org) 26 developing countries
* Bolivia
* Iran
* Ivory Coast
* Nigeria
* Philippines
* Thailand

You see how it works They use the same template again & again
https://unido.org 

20/ 1977 they created the Davos Club (they like their clubs and "you ain't in it" - George Carlin) "the hallmark of the club. It is characterized by the sportsmanlike work climate that develops particularly well thanks to the beautiful scenery" lol

21/ "After Dom Hélder Câmara’s participation in 1974, Schwab regularly invited religious leaders to Davos. In 1977, Franz Cardinal König, the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Vienna, joined the meeting"

21/ "and voiced his concerns about humankind’s egotistical drive for material wealth and comforts, calling for a renewal of society to put the two pillars of faith and love at its core."

Hmm yet look at attendance at Davos....

22/ These people use religion and compassion as a weapon.

They themselves don't play the game by the rules they want you to follow. https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2019/jan/22/record-private-jet-flights-davos-leaders-climate-talk

23/

"To broaden its relationship with the media, the Forum shifted its perspective from regarding the press as mainly working journalists covering its events to considering them to be important stakeholders in global society."

24/ Which basically means Schwab sees the medias the propagandist tools they have become

25/ In cooperation with EUROPA (at that time the monthly
supplement of Italy’s La Stampa newspaper, Le Monde of France, The Times of London & Germany’s Die Welt) and the International Chamber of Commerce in Paris, the Forum introduced a special series of meetings & publications.

26/ "The first event was held in Geneva in November
under the theme “Should business leaders serve in politics?”.

And we are back to corporations becoming out overlords.

27/ Check this out. Love the Control Data Corporation lol

They really do spell it out for you.

28/ "In 1977, the Red Army Faction, an extreme left-wing terrorist group, kidnapped Hanns-Martin Schleyer, the President of both the Federation of German Industries (BDI) and the Confederation of German Employers’ Associations (BDA) and one of the most powerful men in Germany."

29/ this is something that connects to present day issues.

Check out Bettina Rohl (her mother was Ulrike Meinhof) and her take on left wing extremism.

30/ I wrote a bit about it here but this is a whole other thread https://twitter.com/unspinthespin/status/1298979670457638918

31/ I am so sick and tired of people trying to rewrite history and the people who lap it up bc they are too lazy to look under the hood.

....frustration aside let's continue.

32/ 1978 th Forum convened 9 roundtables:

* Washington DC for European investors
* Brussels in collaboration withEU
* London
* Amsterdam
* Athens
* Bonn
* Rome
* Paris with the (OECD) and a 2nd with the ArabEuropean Business Cooperation Symposium

33/...and in 1979 here comes China. Schwab was invitation by the Chairman of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences = followed by a "delegation of 20 European CEOs,
who had a rich programme that allowed significant interaction with Chinese authorities".

lol of course.

34/ "China’s Ministry of Economic Relations with Foreign Countries signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the European Management Forum that allowed for the establishment of regular exchange and the holding of an annual meeting in Beijing"

35/ "in cooperation with the newly created China Enterprise Management Association (CEMA). The agreement also committed the Forum to hosting in Geneva Chinese ministerial delegations to meet representatives of relevant
companies and enterprises."

36/ ....and here comes the 80's and a pic of the people who define true "privilege". It's amazing how they are allowed to maintain this posture while throwing lighter fluid of over the masses.

37/ Address by Kissinger
"We are living in a world which has seen a major redistribution of power. Several times, first at the end of World War II when Europe lost its traditional pre-eminence"

38/
"Then in the decades afterwards, there developed new standards of power including Europe, so that the world became transformed first into a bipolar system and then into a somewhat multipolar system."
