The China lockdown of 50 million citizens overnight was a key element in the long-standing plan to foist a fake pandemic on humanity.<\/p>\n

That lockdown provided the model for the rest of the world.<\/p>\n

We are now in phase one of Lockdown Civilization.<\/p>\n

The \u201cscientific\u201d rationale? THE VIRUS. The virus that isn\u2019t there. The virus whose existence is unproven.<\/p>\n

But the story line works: \u201cWe have to follow the China model because the pandemic is sweeping across the globe\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Close on the heels of this con job, we have the intro to phase two: \u201cIn order to deal with future pandemics, we must install a new planetary system of command and control; human behavior must be modified.\u201d<\/p>\n

Translation: wall to wall surveillance at a level never achieved before; universal guaranteed income for every human, tied to obedience to all state directives; violate those directives and income is reduced or canceled; the planting of nano devices inside the body which will broadcast physiological changes to central command, and which will receive instructions that modify mood and reaction\u2026<\/p>\n

Phase one lockdowns prepare the citizenry to accept phase two.<\/p>\n

In other words, phase one had nothing to do with a virus. It was part of the technocratic revolution.<\/p>\n

I call your attention to a stunning article in The Atlantic. \u201cThe Panopticon Is Already Here\u201d<\/em><\/a><\/u> (9\/20), by Ross Andersen.<\/p>\n

Here are significant excerpts:<\/p>\n

\u201cArtificial intelligence has applications in nearly every human domain, from the instant translation of spoken language to early viral-outbreak detection. But Xi [Xi Jinping, president of China] also wants to use AI\u2019s awesome analytical powers to push China to the cutting edge of surveillance. He wants to build an all-seeing digital system of social control, patrolled by precog algorithms that identify potential dissenters in real time.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cChina already has hundreds of millions of surveillance cameras in place. Xi\u2019s government hopes to soon achieve full video coverage of key public areas. Much of the footage collected by China\u2019s cameras is parsed by algorithms for security threats of one kind or another. In the near future, every person who enters a public space could be identified, instantly, by AI matching them to an ocean of personal data, including their every text communication, and their body\u2019s one-of-a-kind protein-construction schema. In time, algorithms will be able to string together data points from a broad range of sources\u2014travel records, friends and associates, reading habits, purchases\u2014to predict political resistance before it happens. China\u2019s government could soon achieve an unprecedented political stranglehold on more than 1 billion people.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cChina is already developing powerful new surveillance tools, and exporting them to dozens of the world\u2019s actual and would-be autocracies. Over the next few years, those technologies will be refined and integrated into all-encompassing surveillance systems that dictators can plug and play.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cChina\u2019s government could harvest footage from equivalent Chinese products. They could tap the cameras attached to ride-share cars, or the self-driving vehicles that may soon replace them: Automated vehicles will be covered in a whole host of sensors, including some that will take in information much richer than 2-D video. Data from a massive fleet of them could be stitched together, and supplemented by other City Brain streams, to produce a 3-D model of the city that\u2019s updated second by second. Each refresh could log every human\u2019s location within the model. Such a system would make unidentified faces a priority, perhaps by sending drone swarms to secure a positive ID.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAn authoritarian state with enough processing power could force the makers of such software to feed every blip of a citizen\u2019s neural activity into a government database. China has recently been pushing citizens to download and use a propaganda app. The government could use emotion-tracking software to monitor reactions to a political stimulus within an app. A silent, suppressed response to a meme or a clip from a Xi speech would be a meaningful data point to a precog algorithm.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAll of these time-synced feeds of on-the-ground data could be supplemented by footage from drones, whose gigapixel cameras can record whole cityscapes in the kind of crystalline detail that allows for license-plate reading and gait recognition. \u2018Spy bird\u2019 drones already swoop and circle above Chinese cities, disguised as doves. City Brain\u2019s feeds could be synthesized with data from systems in other urban areas, to form a multidimensional, real-time account of nearly all human activity within China. Server farms across China will soon be able to hold multiple angles of high-definition footage of every moment of every Chinese person\u2019s life.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe government might soon have a rich, auto-populating data profile for all of its 1 billion\u2013plus citizens. Each profile would comprise millions of data points, including the person\u2019s every appearance in surveilled space, as well as all of her communications and purchases. Her threat risk to the party\u2019s power could constantly be updated in real time, with a more granular score than those used in China\u2019s pilot \u2018social credit\u2019 schemes, which already aim to give every citizen a public social-reputation score based on things like social-media connections and buying habits. Algorithms could monitor her digital data score, along with everyone else\u2019s, continuously, without ever feeling the fatigue that hit Stasi officers working the late shift. False positives\u2014deeming someone a threat for innocuous behavior\u2014would be encouraged, in order to boost the system\u2019s built-in chilling effects, so that she\u2019d turn her sharp eyes on her own behavior, to avoid the slightest appearance of dissent.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf her risk factor fluctuated upward\u2014whether due to some suspicious pattern in her movements, her social associations, her insufficient attention to a propaganda-consumption app, or some correlation known only to the AI\u2014a purely automated system could limit her movement. It could prevent her from purchasing plane or train tickets. It could disallow passage through checkpoints. It could remotely commandeer \u2018smart locks\u2019 in public or private spaces, to confine her until security forces arrived.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEach time a person\u2019s face is recognized, or her voice recorded, or her text messages intercepted, this information could be attached, instantly, to her government-ID number, police records, tax returns, property filings, and employment history. It could be cross-referenced with her medical records and DNA, of which the Chinese police boast they have the world\u2019s largest collection.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe country [China] is now the world\u2019s leading seller of AI-powered surveillance equipment. In Malaysia, the government is working with Yitu, a Chinese AI start-up, to bring facial-recognition technology to Kuala Lumpur\u2019s police as a complement to Alibaba\u2019s City Brain platform. Chinese companies also bid to outfit every one of Singapore\u2019s 110,000 lampposts with facial-recognition cameras.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn South Asia, the Chinese government has supplied surveillance equipment to Sri Lanka. On the old Silk Road, the Chinese company Dahua is lining the streets of Mongolia\u2019s capital with AI-assisted surveillance cameras. Farther west, in Serbia, Huawei is helping set up a \u2018safe-city system,\u2019 complete with facial-recognition cameras and joint patrols conducted by Serbian and Chinese police aimed at helping Chinese tourists to feel safe.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the early aughts, the Chinese telecom titan ZTE sold Ethiopia a wireless network with built-in backdoor access for the government. In a later crackdown, dissidents were rounded up for brutal interrogations, during which they were played audio from recent phone calls they\u2019d made. Today, Kenya, Uganda, and Mauritius are outfitting major cities with Chinese-made surveillance networks.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Egypt, Chinese developers are looking to finance the construction of a new capital. It\u2019s slated to run on a \u2018smart city\u2019 platform similar to City Brain, although a vendor has not yet been named. In southern Africa, Zambia has agreed to buy more than $1 billion in telecom equipment from China, including internet-monitoring technology. China\u2019s Hikvision, the world\u2019s largest manufacturer of AI-enabled surveillance cameras, has an office in Johannesburg.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 2018, CloudWalk Technology, a Guangzhou-based start-up spun out of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, inked a deal with the Zimbabwean government to set up a surveillance network. Its terms require Harare to send images of its inhabitants\u2014a rich data set, given that Zimbabwe has absorbed migration flows from all across sub-Saharan Africa\u2014back to CloudWalk\u2019s Chinese offices, allowing the company to fine-tune its software\u2019s ability to recognize dark-skinned faces, which have previously proved tricky for its algorithms.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving set up beachheads in Asia, Europe, and Africa, China\u2019s AI companies are now pushing into Latin America, a region the Chinese government describes as a \u2018core economic interest.\u2019 China financed Ecuador\u2019s $240 million purchase of a surveillance-camera system. Bolivia, too, has bought surveillance equipment with help from a loan from Beijing. Venezuela recently debuted a new national ID-card system that logs citizens\u2019 political affiliations in a database built by ZTE\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

That gives you a chilling outline of Lockdown, phase two.<\/p>\n

Lockdowns were never about a virus or a pandemic.<\/p>\n

Lockdown Civilization has been in the planning and development stage for a long time.<\/p>\n

People say, \u201cWhy? Why are they doing this?\u201d<\/p>\n

The short answer is, because they want to and they can.<\/p>\n

Technocrats don\u2019t view life as life. They view it as a system, and this is their most comprehensive system to date.<\/p>\n
