Many thanks to Paul Brennan for having me back on his Reality Check Radio show in New Zealand. The bio he used was from last year, when I was in my final days as a senior lecturer — please ignore that part. We managed to pack a lot into 45 minutes, including:

* continuities between the Nazi past and the present via the formation of a transnational deep state after World War II;

* the role of Wall Street in the rise of Hitler, the funding of the Nazi war machine, and the ability of the Nazis to fight World War II;

* the Ukrainian digital state, the Global Government Technology Centre, and the rise of digital transformation agencies;

* the “Agentic state” and its double meaning relating to the removal of human agency and responsibility;

* the unresponsiveness of governments to public opinion on key issues such as digital ID;

* the engineering of a loss of public trust in democratic institutions so that AI and technocracy will be welcomed by the public;

* the potentially imminent rollout of digital currencies and its implications;

* a cetnralised, globally “interoperable” financial system;

* the intentionally addictive nature of “smart” devices;

* the dangers of chatbots;

* why the Agentic State spells the end of liberal democracy;

* Trump’s role in accelerating the installation of technocracy in the United States;

* the harvesting of medical data and its potential misuse;

* who “they” are;

* governments’ prioritisation of the agendas of the transnational deep state over the will of the people;

* the necessity for mass non-compliance with all aspects of technocracy; and

* the psychopathic evil that has been unleashed in the war against humanity.
