Is the shadowy and insidious “New World Order” something that lies in the future, always to be warned of, but seemingly never to be reached? Or is it here and now and we just don’t recognize it as such? If we look at the NWO as a state of the world rather than an endpoint, I’d say we’re living it. If we view the NWO as a state of permanent destabilization, a never ending sequence of crisis and response, then we’re there already. 9/11/01 of course set the stage for a world of permanent crisis, and then the destructive wars that followed, seamlessly moving into the 2008 financial crisis, inflation, economic and political disruption, more war, and then the mother of all crises, the 2020 COVID pandemic. Parallel with the pandemic was the BLM riots and the upending of American culture. And sprinkled throughout are the various mass shootings that occur seemingly spontaneously in schools, malls, grocery stores, churches, concerts, and state fairs. Our children act out “active shooter” scenarios in school, crystallizing a base-line level of fear that remains fixated as core memories, acclimating them to a life of destabilization, crisis, and unquestioning obedience to official commands. The NWO is a cultural movement, not an endpoint. And it’s here now.
