While I agree with a lot of what this guy has to say, he comes across as someone who’s trying to sound intellectual and deep, rather than someone who’s trying to convince others his position is right.
I thought his claim that land ownership is somehow a source of power in the modern world particularly stupid. What is this, the 17th century? There are many sources of power today, but owning a lot of acres simply isn’t one of them.
I think the author is saying that yes, the 17th century landed gentry is still with us, all wrapped up in the environmental movement - and this would not be the common landowners with private property or farms, but large landowners of real estate, particularly in the big cities, commercial and otherwise - much of which goes back to the European aristocracy.
There is an excellent video interview with Timothy Wood which explains in exquisite clarity the meaning of technocratic age and TechnocraCY. See episode #250 of Caravan To Midnight on Youtube. JOhn Wells usually charges $.98 per episode but this one is so important that he is giving it away on Youtube to anyone who will listen and learn the truth of what the oligarchy has in store for US all.
