Agenda 2030, Agenda 2050, Agenda 21, Stablecoins, Climate Change, Control, Smart Cities, 15 Minute Cities, Surveillance, Bitcoin, Spiritual Awareness, Fear, Compliance, Resistance. Timothy Allen talks with Efrat Fenigson. This conversation explores the rise of centralised control in a digital age with particular reference to Agenda 2030. Efrat sees Agenda 2030 as a plan to control many facets of human life, from finances and movement to information and even food choices. She argues that while the agenda is presented as a benevolent path toward sustainability, it relies heavily on manipulating people through fear and encouraging compliance. Efrat is particularly concerned about the way climate change is being used to justify policies that could erode personal liberties. Efrat believes it’s impossible to save everyone, arguing that awakening to these realities is ultimately a personal choice. She emphasises the importance of individual responsibility, urging listeners to educate themselves, become financially independent through tools like Bitcoin, and seek out communities that align with their values. She also highlights the spiritual dimension of this struggle, suggesting that true freedom requires not just external changes but also inner work and a deeper understanding of one’s place in the world. Enjoy the conversation.

CBDCs, Bitcoin, China, Alipay, Wechat, Thailand, Personal Carbon Allowance, Universal Basic Income, Carbon Credits, Freedom, Monetary Collapse, Carbon Markets. Timothy Allen talks with Efrat Fenigson. Todays show is an important one if, like me you value individual freedom and prosperity. Efrat Fenigson is a journalist and marketing expert who I sat down with in Prague a few weeks ago to talk everything CBDCs (Central Bank Digital Currencies). CBDCs, as the name suggests are programmable digital tokens issued directly from a country's central bank. Don’t think that’s a problem? I do, but don’t just trust me. Here’s how Agustín Carsten, the general manager of the Bank of International Settlements framed it a couple of years ago whilst he was talking about physical cash: "A key difference with the CBDC.. is that the central bank will have absolute control over the rules and regulations that will determine the use of that expression of central bank liability.” Yes, that’s right, it's programmable money issued solely by the creepy psychopathic banking overlord types. That’s my characterisation of course, but I’ve linked that particular speech in the show notes below so you can take a look to see if you would trust this guy as the issuer and controller of your money. Fortunately for us, since 2008 we have had an antidote to this sociopathy. That would be bitcoin of course, so don’t despair but it is important for you to prepare yourself for what is almost certainly coming along with CBDCs. Topics we touch upon include marketing CBDCs to the public, the Covid crisis, social credit scores, Alipay, WeChat and what's going on in China plus the arrival of personal carbon allowances and the possibility of a global financial collapse in our lifetimes.
