Globalists—whether in multinational corporations, elite think tanks, or non-governmental organisations—have largely operated behind closed doors, making decisions with profound global implications but without public transparency or accountability. By promoting policies perceived to benefit the few at the expense of the many, globalist influence has fostered mistrust among those who feel alienated or negatively impacted by these decisions. Economic policies that outsource labor and concentrate wealth, trade agreements that prioritise corporate gains over worker protections, and health policies that benefit the pharmaceutical industry over individual health and autonomy, all contribute to a new reality that these entities serve a narrow set of interests.
Globalisation, while bringing certain economic benefits, has had detrimental impacts on local economies and job security, contributing to the rise of populism and anti-globalist sentiment worldwide. The frustration and disillusionment with globalisation, especially among the middle and working classes, reflects a deep-seated belief that the global elite is not only detached from the everyday struggles of ordinary people but also complicit in creating these struggles.
The COVID-19 pandemic further exposed and intensified this growing divide. The response to the pandemic was marked by an unprecedented consolidation of power among global organizations, governments, and Big Tech. Policies that restricted personal freedoms, pushed experimental medical interventions, and limited discourse by labelling dissent as “misinformation” created an atmosphere of pathological distrust. Many people now realise that the narrative around COVID-19 was tightly controlled and that legitimate questions about the origins of the virus, the efficacy of certain treatments, and the transparency of pharmaceutical interests were ignored or shut down. The paranoia has even extended to conspiracy theories that the globalists want global control. Its that’s the case, as before, James Bond must step up.
The sidelining of dissenting voices (censorship) —including scientists and medical experts who questioned the prevailing narrative—was a critical blow to public trust. Rather than allowing a balanced scientific discourse, authorities acted to marginalise and discredit anyone challenging the status quo, leaving people feeling misled or manipulated. The situation was worsened by Big Tech, which engaged in aggressive censorship practices. Social media platforms quickly began flagging or removing content that questioned official COVID-19 policies, reinforcing public perception that a powerful few were controlling information to their own advantage.

"Stern and lasting message" my ass. Only life in prison will do. Singapore is a much better country than the US in this way.
