The Saint Effect
Good day, Flood. I don't start threads very often, but today is a special occasion. One I feel I should share with all of you. Take what you will out of this, but more people should be, at the very least, aware.
Flood, meet Agenda 21. A multi-step process laid out by the United Nations in Rio De Janeiro, in 1992. The basic description of Agenda 21 is to bring "sustainable development" to the global community. What does that mean, you ask? Well, for starters, what the plan is trying to accomplish is to greatly reduce our negative impact on the Earth and our environments.
The actions to be taken to achieve this goal, would threaten our sovereignty, our freedoms, and our very way of life. How, you might ask, with a puzzled look on your face? The steps to be taken to achieve these goals, can be summarized in the following -
- Repurpose 50% of the land in the United States alone, to be National Environment Reserves, like National Parks, if you will. Now, to do that, the government would literally have to move millions upon millions of people from their homes to other population centers, to make way for this. In fact, it is outlined within the plan for there to be at least 30 or so citizens to an acre. They want to create "walking cities", intensely dense urban centers, where people will, simply put, walk to where they need to go.
- Eradicate the usage of automobiles within these "walking cities". To combat automobile pollution.
- Reduce population. To prevent crowding and other problems that stem from having such a sizable population to begin with.
- Ban weapons (such as guns).
- Rely on bureaucracies for decision-making, not democracies.
- To focus on the collective, and NOT the individual. What this means, is that your rights and personal freedoms will be severely restricted to comply with the good of the collective (the entirety of the global population overall).
- For wealthy countries to provide for poor countries so they may be able to accomplish the necessary goals of Agenda 21. This means that the US and other wealthy countries will have to support third world countries financially and with key resources to help establish what they deem needs to be done.
What they say they want to do, is to solve the problems of the present, without compromising the future generations.
Now, believe me, there is a whole lot more information out there, and I encourage fact-checking and searching for more information. I know I definitely cannot type all that I'd like to type about this subject, as I'm probably missing something. But I am hoping however, that this has inspired some to take interest in this subject and what's going on.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist, nor have I ever been. However, what I find in this "plan" scares me, and enrages me. Some of you, will notice I only addressed America's role in Agenda 21. This is true. I live in America, so I researched as such. For those of you living elsewhere, I highly recommend taking a look at where your country stands in this arrangement.
Another thing you will notice, especially the scholarly among you, is that I didn't provide any direct sources. Correct, and with reason. I believe you all should do some digging and some researching yourselves, as I did, to give you a better understanding.
I thank you all for taking the time for reading this, and please have yourselves a good day or night, depending on your time zone.
One last thing. I'm sure some of you will say that is discussing politics, and should be locked. I understand this, and I thought about this. However, I find the situation to be too dire, and too important. In fact, I would regard this as more of a humanities and human rights and freedoms type thread more than anything. But, because I know how the Flood likes to be, I would like to ask you all to please refrain from derailing this thread into one of those mindless flamewars you all seem to be ever so capable of starting.
EDIT: Allow me to provide my own personal opinion regarding all of this, since so many of you have misconceptions. Personally, I don't believe it will happen. It will die in the UN eventually or just never get implemented enough to make a difference. But the mere fact that it's out there, and that it's a real possibility, is a reason to be aware.
NEWER EDIT: Removing all bias from OP. Now maybe we can have some decent discussions without all the name-calling. Lawd. Now research, and draw your own opinions.
