“To create a dystopian world like the one embodied in the Great Reset Conspiracy Theory, no conspiracy is needed.” — Eric van de Beek

Due to the lockdowns, many people around the world are losing their jobs, businesses are going bankrupt and governments are indebting themselves to the hilt. Those who believe that the negative impact of the coronavirus measures are more damaging than the lives being saved have started asking themselves: Is there a hidden agenda behind it all?

Last week marked the 50th annual World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. For the first time, the forum was held in a virtual setting, with no heads of state, captains of industry and others physically attending. The theme of this year’s sessions: The Great Reset.

The Great Reset has become a buzzword in circles of conspiracy thinkers.


Some think that it refers to global financial elites and world leaders that planned the pandemic, deliberately letting loose a coronavirus to cause conditions that will allow a restructuring of the economy, the financial system, politics and society. They refer to the pandemic as a ‘plandemic’.

Others refrain from any opinion about the cause of the pandemic and merely think the elites are just taking advantage of the virus.

Many believe the main goal of the Great Reset is to take global control by instituting a totalitarian regime, and by extension, a so-called new world order.

Such a regime would abolish personal ownership and property rights, send the military into cities, impose mandatory vaccination, and create isolation camps for people who resist.



Or be thrown into “isolation camps for people who resist.”


[LD] This is already being done in Germany where “detention camps“—concentration camps in all but name—are being set up for Covid “criminals”.

First-hand reports also come from Canada about forced quarantine in Canada’s coronavirus internment camps. *

In Britain, the situation rapidly spins out of control. Here totalitarianism begins to rear its ugly head ominously, with controversial plans being set in motion to fine Covid “cheats” £10,000 ($13,800) and sentence them to TEN YEARS in prison.

“The purpose behind the Government’s invoking of imprisonment,” columnist Stephen Glover notes in the Daily Mail, “is to instil fear. Rule by fear is often effective.” (See “A decade in prison for lying where you travelled? It’s laughable. Some have served less for murder.”) The former head of the British government’s legal department, Sir Jonathan Jones, tweeted scornfully: “If anyone is ever sentenced to ten years for lying on a form, I’ll eat my mask.” [LD]
* A respected reader informs us in a comment that the reference made to Canada is unfair and gives false information. There are no such mega-camps in Canada, she points out, adding: “This is a slimy, dishonest move. The man in Canada was placed into a decent HOTEL.” (See comment made by Wyandotte below).

Conspiracy thinking has become a derogatory term. And, in fact, there are many examples of conspiracy theories that are ludicrous. But at the same time, conspiracy theories have often turned out to be conspiracy facts.

And so what to make of The Big Reset Conspiracy Theory?
A hidden agenda

It is understandable that people have started asking themselves why governments have taken such draconian measures to stop the pandemic. The virus may be deadlier than the flu, but it’s not a killer virus like ebola or the Spanish Flu. To many, the cure seems worse than the disease.

Due to coronavirus lockdown measures, many are suffering from severe physical and psychological stress. They have lost jobs or have gone bankrupt. Their governments are indebting themselves to the hilt. The World Food Programme (WFP) executive director, David Beasley, has warned that the world faces “multiple famines of biblical proportions” that could result in 300,000 deaths per day — a “hunger pandemic”. Financial experts have warned we are bringing ourselves to the brink of a financial crisis, one that could be worse than the Great Depression of the 1930s.

To an increasing number of people it seems that the lives that are being destroyed by the coronavirus lockdown measures outweigh the work of saving lives, by far.


Many therefore have started to think there’s a hidden agenda behind it all.

This agenda, to conspiracy theorists, is called The Great Reset, and in their view, it is being masterminded by the global elites via the World Economic Forum in Davos.

Klaus Schwab, 82, who founded the forum 50 years ago and is still leading it, is sometimes depicted on social and alternative media as the character Blofeld from the James Bond films: a bald-headed villain, holding a white cat, who directs the international criminal organisation SPECTRE and aspires world dominance.



KLAUS SCHWAB, German engineer and economist, the alleged mastermind behind the Great Reset, often compared to a James Bond villain.

Schwab co-authored a book published in July 2020 entitled ‘Covid-19: The Great Reset’. I’ve read this book and—to be honest — I didn’t find anything in the book that substantiates the Great Reset Conspiracy Theory. There’s nothing new or particularly controversial here.

As editor Andrew Stuttaford of the National Review puts it: “COVID-19 is just the latest excuse for Schwab to renew his longstanding campaign to replace free market capitalism with stakeholder capitalism.”

Moreover, many of the ideals expressed by Schwab in his book, coauthored with his wife, are inspired by the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations (UN) that were set in 2015 and are intended to be achieved in the year 2030.

The catch phrase “building back better” that was used in Joe Biden’s election campaign and in speeches of Boris Johnson, Justin Trudeau and other world leaders does not stem from the WEF’s Great Reset initiative as is often claimed by conspiracy thinkers. It’s been part of the of the UN’s vocabulary for at least 15 years.

And so: Move along, nothing to see here? No conspiracy going on at the WEF in Davos?


LD: Not so. It’s not as simple as that. The world has changed irreparably in the last year. And all the ideas implicit in the Great Reset have now come to the fore. There’s no going back to “the good old days”. It’s now a one-way street to a world dystopia. Unless, of course, remedial action is taken without delay. [LD]
Danger of totalitarianism looming

There isn’t a shred of evidence the coronavirus was brought into the world on purpose. But at the same time it’s a known fact that, with every crisis, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.


“The 1,000 richest people on the planet recouped their COVID-19 losses within just nine months,” NGO Oxfam reported last week on the opening day of the WEF. “But it could take more than a decade for the world’s poorest to recover from the economic impacts of the pandemic.”

Did wealthy actors take advantage of the coronavirus by pushing governments into taking draconian measures that would cause a worldwide economic crisis? As far as I know, there’s no supporting evidence for this theory at all.

However, concerns about the development towards authoritarianism or totalitarianism need to be taken very seriously. Western governments have taken a set of freedom-restricting measures that are unprecedented in peacetime. As the Austrian-British economist Friedrich Hayek put it: “Emergencies have always been the pretext on which the safeguards of individual liberty have been eroded.”

Governments are always eager to take more control over society—and once they’ve taken it, they will never easily let go of it.

Will governments send the military into the streets to crack down on demonstrations? Will they impose mandatory vaccination and create isolation camps for people who resist?

In some European countries, including the UK and The Netherlands, politicians have already suggested sending in the military to assist the police. In Germany, four federal states declared having plans to detain repeated quarantine breakers in facilities that historically have been either detention or refugee centres.

[LD: See my comment above, beginning with the words, “This is already being done in Germany…”]

To force people into taking a vaccination, governments do not have to make them mandatory. They can simply exclude people that aren’t vaccinated from activities like travel. Such measures are already being prepared. The more people that have been vaccinated, the harder it will become for vaccination refusers to resist.

"To create a dystopian world like the one embodied in the Reset Conspiracy Theory, no conspiracy is needed.”

The erosion of freedom in the West started with the lockdown of the Hubei province in China, “leaked” videos from Wuhan of apocalyptic scenes likened to Zombieland and The Walking Dead – and with The World Health Organisation (WHO), imploring the world to “copy China’s response“.

With one country after another following in China’s footsteps, pressure increased on governments that initially responded in a more relaxed or thoughtful manner. No malevolent intentions were needed to get us to where we are now.

All it took was a global mass hysteria and peer pressured governments that overreacted or simply took the wrong measures.

All it took was global mass hysteria

to bring us to point where we are now.

Last but not least, fear struck, paralysing citizens who—without putting up any serious resistance to this erosion of their liberties—allowed themselves to be led like sheep to the slaughterhouse.

One step at a time.

How many more steps before we reach rockbottom?

LD: One final comment from me. By sheer chance I happen to be reading at the present time an acclaimed biography of Adolf Hitler. I came across this fascinating quotation on page 568 of this monumental tome running to 868 pages. It is Hitler addressing the three supreme military leaders of his armed forces, all anxious to avoid unnecessary bloodshed and advising restraint. This secret meeting occurred in the German Chancellery in November 1939, just as World War II in its early stages was gathering momentum. “In struggle I see the fate of all beings,” Hitler declared. “Nobody can avoid fighting if he does not want to go under.” America’s disillusioned political dissidents—I refer in particular to the patriotic militias—need to bear these compelling words in mind. Unless they fight for their country in its hour of looming doom, unless they make a stand before it is too late, they will go under. The choice is theirs: either to fight or perish. [LD]
