The elites are not communists and are not natural totalitarian, they are rather weak and ineffectual liberals that are trying to put out burning fires. Their ideology of liberalism was fun as long as the west functioned due to a strong culture and as long as the biosphere provided more and more natural resources..

The current leadership failed miserably with the pandemic, they couldn't even come close to stopping it. Their ideology of constant progress made them not think about how to actually handle a crisis. Their ideology of endless growth is hitting the ecological limits of the planet and the free market can't invent natural resources that dont exist. Using cheap Chinese people as slave labor ended up giving the Chinese the world's largest navy which they are now trying to contain.

The west is like the soviet union in the late 80s, the leadership consists of old people who's ideology is running into reality and they are desperately trying to keep the whole thing from falling apart.

This is true for the most part. But keep in mind, the Elites have now reached the point where they don't believe in the right of common people to own private property. That is a luxury to be enjoyed by themselves only. Hence the motto of the great reset: ''You will own nothing and be happy.'' They believe that common people should be forced to rent everything; not just the shitty little pods they live in, or the shitty little cars they drive, but even the clothes on their back!

Thats nonsense. The plandemic was integral to their plans for the great reset. The coronavirus gave them the convenient excuse to lock down countrys all over the world, killing off small businesses while the megacorporations reaped record profits. It is giving them the opportunity to create a cashless society where all financial transactions are monitored and restricted.

The you will own nothing and be happy is about continuing liberalism post peak resources. The world can't sustain more cars yet liberals want billions more people and believe happiness is to consume more and more. Their solution is that cars can be used more efficiently if there are robot taxis. Aka you won't own the car since there isn't enough resources to give billions of people their own car and you will be happy since you get to drive a lot. Capitalism strives towards making assets more liquid and commodifying things and this is their idea. Your lawn mower can become a rental service and make money thus continuing economic growth while the world produces fewer lawn mowers at the same time that more grass is mown.

We can't consume 3% more for ever so in order to grow the economy by 3% we need to use things 3% more efficiently. That means rental service which allow products to be in near constant use instead of stored in people's garages.

A global pandemic was a distaster for globalization, free trade and open borders. They want stability, they don't want to rock the boat.
