Michael Rectenwald returns to discuss the ESG Index or "woke capitalism" as a selection mechanism or demarcation device to delineate which businesses are onboard with The Great Reset and punish those who are not compliant. It is effectively a Social Credit System for companies, feeding investments toward the compliant while starving dissident firms, competition, and industries. This sets up the possibility for doing to companies what is being done to individuals in Canada right now, de-banking them and freezing their assets, and is totalitarian in nature. This global government combines the worst of both systems (capitalism and communism). We discuss the WEF Young Global Leaders program, the threat posed by the people who don't see COVID1984 for what it is, resistance, and parallel structures.

Michael Rectenwald is former NYU professor and author of 11 books including Google Archipelago: The Digital Gulag and the Simulation of Freedom. You best get this book and read it because judging by events in Canada, the hunger games have officially commenced and we are now in thick of the Google Archipelago where you can have your bank account frozen for donating money to truckers. Michael, how are you doing? And how are you enjoying the Google Archipelago? Michael Rectenwald: I'm hanging in there very well. It's great to be back. So yeah, I'm looking forward to our talk. Geopolitics & Empire: Yeah. I think you were ill for a while now and you recovered? Michael Rectenwald: Oh, yes. I had COVID and went in twice to the hospital. The first time was for COVID itself, but then really, I left the hospital and then the medications they gave me made me sicker than anything. I was given some anticoagulants that ended up causing me to have intestinal bleeding, which almost killed me. So the second time I went into the hospital, I was under respiratory failure. I couldn't breathe at all. So they had to put me on a ventilator. I was completely unconscious. They put me on a ventilator and everybody that knew me thought this is a 50-50 chance to survive once you're on the ventilator. I was on that for three days, but I didn't know that. I woke up and I was in the ICU and just said, "Well, how long have I been here?" And they said, "Three days." I was like, "What? I had lost them completely." So I was in 12 days in the ICU in a couple more days in the regular hospital bed. And oh boy, I couldn't walk when I got out. I couldn't do anything. I mean, I was so weak. I lost 50 pounds. It was intense. Geopolitics & Empire: Yeah. I was shocked when I saw you posting that on Facebook and Twitter and your social media. I was like I couldn't believe it,

“People are losing jobs. They're losing livelihoods. They're losing social credibility,” says Michael Rectenwald. “We're looking at social death, in effect.” In this episode, Michael Rectenwald, author of “Google Archipelago: The Digital Gulag and the Simulation of Freedom,” explains the negative consequences of https://www.theepochtimes.com/t-cancel-culture (cancel culture) and what “The Great Reset” really is about. A former Marxist and professor at New York University, Rectenwald recently co-founded https://americanscholars.com/ (American Scholars), an emerging education platform that challenges the university model with a low-cost, woke-free alternative.

The topic on our minds is the Great Reset. What is it and how do the lockdowns, “the woke” movement, cancel culture, Big Tech and Big Media censorship, and the BLM/Antifa riots play into this Great Reset?Dr. Michael Rectenwald has a number of interesting ideas connecting all of these things and more. Here is part of his bio from his website, www.michaelrectenwald.com. “Dr. Michael Rectenwald is the author of eleven books, including Thought Criminal (Dec. 2020); Beyond Woke (May 2020); Google Archipelago: The Digital Gulag and the Simulation of Freedom (Sept. 2019); Springtime for Snowflakes: “Social Justice” and Its Postmodern Parentage(an academic's memoir, 2018).Michael was a Professor of Liberal Studies and Global Liberal Studies at NYU from 2008 to 2019.

The internet has changed. When it started, it explicitly had the values of libertarianism and free thinking. It was dedicated to the free flow of information.Then something happened. The internet is now a place of surveillance, of thought police, of censorship, and of conformity.How and why did this change occur?I am pleased to have today my friend, Michael Rectenwald, author of the new book the Google Archipelago: The Digital Gulag and the Simulation of FreedomWe discuss:- Michael's "expulsion" from his Professorship at NYU and "excommunication" from he left communist group that he was a part of because of his criticism of political correctness- His journey to the "right" on the political spectrum - How Google is behaving like the Soviet Gulags, not only imprisoning people, but attempting to erase them from history- How the Digital Giants are trying to create a Fake Reality, not just Fake News, like a Matrix in real life- the emergence of Corporate Socialism- How Alexandra Ocasio Cortez and Bernie Sanders cannot be threats to the existing system, because they are being celebrated in that system- State / Corporate Socialism vs. Libertarian Socialism- Leftist Authoritarianism- algorithmic "unfairness" "machine learning fairness"- Google attempting to creating a simulated reality- how we are living through the creation of a Matrix by Google and other Big Digital- The way sites are suppressed in search results- Tay AI- how our personal data is more valuable than oil - Big Digital Companies are now richer than oil companies- how the internet changed from liberty to authoritarianism, similar to the Soviet Union's- censorship of the dissident left- arbitrariness of the dominant - hypocrisy of the "liberal" left, or "liberal" progressives- the similarity of crony capitalism and state socialism- the similarity of individualist free market capitalist vision and the libertarian socialist vision- people with penises are running feminism- how the classic postmodern ideas of the Panopticon, Simulacra and Simulations, Governmentality can be used as a criticism of today's Digital Corporatism- the need to unite the dissident right and dissident left- dissidents like Tulsi Gabbard, Andrew Yang- the necessity to produce Truth-based narratives to fight Digital Simulated Reality- the importance of the imperfect individual- how he is surviving the Digital Corporate leftist persecution
