Der Techno-Faschismus
Während ein Großteil der Bevölkerung in Virusangst und Schockstarre gefangen bleibt und die wahren Vorgänge hinter einer Nebelwand aus Falschbehauptungen verschwinden, festigen die Zentren der Macht ihre Herrschaft. Sie realisieren einen Techno-Faschismus bislang unvorstellbaren Ausmaßes, um die Welt nach dem Corona-Reset in eine 4. industrielle Revolution zu führen. Im Folgenden bezieht sich Raul Diego auf die Einführung eines digitalen Gesundheitspasses, der alle Orwellschen Vorstellungen in den Schatten stellt und Privatkonzernen endlose Profitmöglichkeiten eröffnet. Korrupte Regierungen stehen bei diesem weltumspannenden Projekt Pate.

False online accusation resulted in a boycott, outrage and “terroristic” threats against venue business
Cuthbertson, in an effort to save his business from losing customers, requested the police give him a head’s up before they come so he could arrange his schedule for meeting potential customers accordingly.
Neither the policemen nor Cuthbertson had an issue with the arrangement.
But then, soon after, George Floyd’s death made national headlines and the issues of race and police brutality were forced into every part of society from news to entertainment.
A comment on a local Facebook page ended up twisting the facts and portrayed Cuthbertson as anti-cop, suggesting that he wouldn’t let cops on the property.
“This place refused to allow the Falls Township Police to sit at his outdoor picnic tables and eat their lunch. If you’re looking for a catering venue, don’t choose this one,” read the comment on a local Facebook page.
No sooner was the comment posted than he started receiving threats on phone calls with people hurling profanities at him.

The Supreme Court in a split decision on Thursday granted New York state prosecutors access to President Trump’s tax returns, even as it shielded a trove of his financial records from Congress.

Psychologist: Public Manipulated, Crisis Headquarters Concealed the Truth
(25.06.2020)
„It is clear that we were manipulated, as well as that whether [the authorities] will tighten measures this weekend and relax measures or completely cancel them in the following month, has a lot to more to do with political interests“ than public health concerns, Trebjesanin told the latest issue of the Vreme magazine on June 25, commenting on the government‘s tactics for fighting the virus.
He also said that „the experts were idealized, the famous phrase ‚that‘s what the officials say‘ was used as a taboo, as if God himself had ordained it.“
