I read Karl Popper's book the Open Society. An intro is by George Soros. I am sure Popper didn't intend for sociopaths to take his ideas and run a global NGO to create obedient robotic individuals, but here we are. The problem of Popper and friends is that they looked over their right shoulder fearing the rise of nationalistic fascism, but not truly over their left shoulder to see what unbridled Marxism unleashed.

And they all miss the terrifying mammoth sized elephant in the room. ISLAM.

Elites foolishly believe they can use the jihadis to reduce population and control outcomes, and then summarily dispose of them.

Witness the UK. It's clearly what the plan is, and how Islam is planning world domination. But methinks Lauren was more interested in her sorority than history. She needs to read the words to The Battle Hymn of the Republic.

"From the Halls of Montezuma to the Shores of Tripoli" is not just a catchy tune. It's a map of where we had to fight the last time the Caliphate was attempted. And the WEF walked right into the trap.

It's not just that they're stupid, it's that they don't know they're stupid. They think they're smarter than the rest of us, and we're standing on the edge of the cliff yelling at them that there's a big drop ahead.

With the elites and Islam, it's a case of the enemy of the enemy is my friend. And their enemy is Western Civilization and Judeo-Christian values. They are arrogant enough to think they can unleash Islamic disruption on the plebes to keep them afraid and then reign Islam in after the fact. It shows the hubris and stupidity of the elites.

Yes, this. It's exactly what I was saying. "Elites" are very stupid if they think they can conquer these crazed psychopaths for whom their own death is a trophy with a reward in what they call "heaven." That's why I call them DElites. As in delete... They are signing their own death warrants. Just look at London right now. It's right out of the book "While Europe Slept." FFS

Perhaps arrogance is also a factor? "The only thing more dangerous than ignorance is arrogance"

We probably need another name for the "elites" to signify their basic love of communism. All communist movements used an "underclass" to gain political or societal advantage; then threw them by the wayside once their goals were accomplished.

That is probably a safe bet. But I suspect that behavior is not restricted to her. "Today's public figures can no longer write their own speeches or books, and there is some evidence that they can't read them either."

This is always true of people who believe they have the answer to big "global problems".

The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule.
