Hey and welcome to Unlimited Hangout. I'm your host, Whitney Webb. Today, throughout much of the world,

a certain set of overarching policy goals that first revealed themselves during the COVID era

continue to march forward, with political parties on the left and the right, calling for those

policies implementation, albeit with different justifications. Digital IDs and they're used to

access online services, biometric control over

national borders, unprecedented surveillance, and so-called predictive policing, the creation of a new carbon pricing scheme, an unprecedented effort to merge man with machine, the increased militarization of domestic policing, and much more are being rolled out in relative lockstep globally.

However, many who were against these measures just a few years ago now seem to view them somewhat differently

as certain political figures have postured themselves as against these policies, but in reality,

only really offer different sales pitches to the public for many of those same policies.

This can also be seen on the

international stage where the apparent hostilities between West and East disappear when it comes

to these same policy goals. The reason for this likely lies in the adoption by both the Western

and Eastern power blocks of United Nations policy agendas, such as Agenda 2030, and the so-called

sustainable development goals.

While those goals themselves are worded to sound pleasant and as ensuring basic rights and needs,

which is, of course, aided by the UN framing itself rather disingenuously, as a place where

national governments all have an equal seat at the table, the reality is really quite

different,

as we will discuss today. To understand where these policy goals come from and who the UN really

serves, it is best to start by examining the genesis of that organization and its development

over the past several decades. Joining me today to dissect the history of the UN and the current

push into techno-dispopia is Dr. Jacob Nordengarde.
