If the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that yesterday’s conspiracy theory is tomorrow’s news. They’re not even conspiracy theories any more, they’re spoiler alerts.
Vaccine passports? Spoiler alert. Shady billionaires recruiting political and academic leaders? Spoiler alert! Climate lockdowns.
Oh, you better believe that’s a spoiler alert.
We could all see it coming, as soon as the media-left starting wittering about, “Gosh, emissions dropped during lockdown! Well, how about that!”
If you think that’s a crazy conspiracy theory, just ask none other than the WEF:
The obvious, yet incomplete, answer is the pandemic.
“Incomplete”, because, dammit, the pandemic can’t keep going forever. So, they need something else to convince the proles to submit to never-ending lockdowns. Enter the “15-minute city”. The theory is that cities should be divided into districts where everything is accessible by a 15-minute cycle ride.
On the surface, these 15-minute neigbourhoods might sound pleasant and convenient. But there is a coercive edge. The council plans to cut car use and traffic congestion by placing strict rules on car journeys.
Residents will have to register their cars with the council and they will be tracked to count their journeys through the key gateways. It’s the social credit scheme that starts with your car and works like anti-frequent-flyer points.
If you should leave your designated district, fines start accumulating.
Oxfordshire County Council yesterday approved plans to lock residents into one of six zones to ‘save the planet’ from global warming. The latest stage in the ‘15 minute city’ agenda is to place electronic gates on key roads in and out of the city, confining residents to their own neighbourhoods.
Under the new scheme if residents want to leave their zone they will need permission from the Council who gets to decide who is worthy of freedom and who isn’t.
The last time the common folk were tied to their local district so severely, it was called “serfdom”.
London mayor Sadiq Khan, it should surprise absolutely no one, birthed the climate serfdom concept with “C40”, a “network of mayors of nearly 100 world-leading cities collaborating to deliver the urgent action needed right now to confront the climate crisis”.
Lest you should be inclined to think this isn’t leading to climate lockdowns, just listen to the BBC.
Here they are connecting the “15 Minute City” to the fun of covid lockdowns, and setting this up as though it’s totally normal for the government to decide who your friends are:
How ‘15-minute cities’ will change the way we socialise.
And furthermore lockdowns in Paris were great social moments where we all made friends. Who knew how much fun it would be to be told you couldn’t drive far?
You will not only own nothing and be happy, you’ll go nowhere and be whistlin’ zippity-doo-dah out of your arseholes.
