Among these, the core of an equal and orderly multipolar world is to adhere to the equality of all countries, big and small, oppose hegemonism and power politics, and effectively promote the democratization of international relations.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A less utopian view predicts a multipolar world districted into blocs or spheres of influence, but still more dynamic and potentially fair for being out of the Empire\u2019s shadow.

And it should always be put in quotes.<\/p>\n<p>The truth behind the word is simple: A global franchise for an old system of control.<\/p>\n<h3>Party Politics Goes Global<\/h3>\n<p>Defenders of the \u201cmultipolar world order\u201d narrative will often argue along the lines\u00a0<em>\u201csurely a multipolar world is better than US Imperialism? Shouldn\u2019t we welcome resistance to hegemony?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>That same argument has been deployed by climate change supporters, who claim\u00a0<em>\u201ceven if the climate isn\u2019t changing, protecting the environment is still a good thing, isn\u2019t it?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The flaw in this argument is a failure to question the underlying assumptions and official definitions of these phrases.<\/p>\n<p>Just because something adopts a nice-sounding name doesn\u2019t mean that thing is nice.<\/p>\n<p>Labour don\u2019t support workers. The Democrats hate democracy.<\/p>\n<p>State-backed corporate \u201cenvironmentalism\u201d is not about planting trees or saving animals, and globalist-backed corporate \u201cmultipolarity\u201d is nothing to do with increasing national sovereignty or offering independence from a global authority.<\/p>\n<p>The reality of a \u201cmultipolar world\u201d will be a system of intertwining corporate and state institutions implementing authoritarian, anti-human policies and disguising an ideologically monolithic power structure behind an illusory veneer of \u201cchoice\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>We in the collective West are more than familiar with this model \u2013\u00a0<strong>it is the way our \u201cdemocracies\u201d function.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Two major teams, with near identical ideologies and taking orders from the same unelected powers, fiercely battling it out over the tiniest sliver of uncommon ground.<\/p>\n<p>They pitch electoral battles over differences of iconography, phraseology or fractions of percentage points to distract from the fact they agree about everything that really matters, have no real power at all, and are at best replaceable widgets in a vast influence machine.<\/p>\n<p>The point of these battles is to convince people that democracy exists, that they have a choice, and can affect change.<\/p>\n<p>This lie\u00a0<em>works<\/em>, and has done for\u00a0<em>decades<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMutlipolarity\u201d is an expansion of that model \u2013 the control mechanism of fake binary left-right, red-blue, Coke-Pepsi partisan politics rolling out world-wide.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the same exact method employed to the same exact end: Tribalism as a path to cognitive dissonance, thought termination and the death of objectivity.<\/p>\n<h3>Why This? Why now?<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s worth remembering this faux-antagonistic version of \u201cmultipolarity\u201d was not part of the long term plan.<\/p>\n<p>It was obvious, almost from the very start, that the Covid \u201cpandemic\u201d was intended to be a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dumptheguardian.com\/politics\/2020\/mar\/26\/gordon-brown-calls-for-global-government-to-tackle-coronavirus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">great global unifying moment<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We were all supposed to realise how silly these disagreements across ethnic, national or religious lines were, and come together to beat back the common enemy. A threat to the world that untied the world, like in Independence Day.<\/p>\n<p>We were meant to be using digital currency under a globally implemented social credit system by now. Owning nothing and being happy.<\/p>\n<p>But\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/off-guardian.org\/2024\/09\/18\/atlantic-mag-admits-pandemic-failed-to-brainwash-people-into-unifying\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">it didn\u2019t work<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The moment they attempted to remove the horizontal divisions created to control society, they only drew attention to the much greater vertical divisions. People suddenly became more aware of the centralized, unified nature of global power structures.<\/p>\n<p>The grand plan to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.lse.ac.uk\/europpblog\/2021\/03\/18\/it-is-time-to-seriously-consider-the-advantages-of-a-world-federal-government\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">get Global Government<\/a> through the gates inside the Covid trojan horse not only failed, but backfired spectacularly.<\/p>\n<p>There was a need for a re-adjustment. A new approach.<\/p>\n<p>International unity didn\u2019t work and doesn\u2019t sell, but an international\u00a0<em>binary<\/em>\u00a0might.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the \u201cmultipolar world order\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3>The Momentum of Real Division<\/h3>\n<p>None of this is to deny the existence of real divisions, or whitewash historic crimes. Obviously there are deeply felt, and entirely justified, anti-Imperial sentiments across the developing world, and within the dissenting circles of the developed world.<\/p>\n<p>The USA has been an Imperial power for the best part of two centuries, and a global hegemon for almost forty years, and in that time it has carried out monstrous acts of colonial aggression, and destroyed millions of lives. We have covered many of them.<\/p>\n<p>In pursuit of oil and gold they cut a bloody swathe across the Middle East, and churned South and Central America into political chaos over and over again.<\/p>\n<p>Israel likewise \u2013 whether you consider them the power behind the US throne, or Washington\u2019s catspaw in the Middle East \u2013 is a brutal apartheid state, that has torn up and spat out international law a thousand times over.<\/p>\n<p>These are all true facts, and the multipolar narrative finds utility in them.<\/p>\n<p>Just as domestic party politics parlays very real economic issues into shallow class-based resentments, or understandable concerns over uncontrolled immigration into reactionary xenophobia \u2013 so too does the \u201cmultipolar world\u201d narrative prey on historical trauma and the desire for vengeance to embed partisan thought that erodes critical thinking.<\/p>\n<p>The narrative harnesses the momentum of historical hatred to push itself forward.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, as I have previously said in interviews, the enthusiasm for this new model from the political classes in Russia, China et al. is entirely understandable. It is far better, from their point of view, to have a seat at the globalist table than be living with Uncle Sam\u2019s nuclear gun at their temple.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s possible many of the people involved truly believe that a fake \u201cmultipolar world order\u201d really does prevent a nuclear war, and is for the best.<\/p>\n<p>Ironically, in their minds, \u201cwar\u201d really\u00a0<em>does<\/em>\u00a0mean peace.<\/p>\n<h4>The Role of War<\/h4>\n<p>War is vital to the development of this multipolar model, in two main ways:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>It disguises, discredits and\/or distracts from, the revelation of globalist cooperation highlighted by the Pandemic.<\/li>\n<li>It furthers, by other means, the \u201cgreat reset\u201d agenda.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It has other supplementary functions as well.<\/p>\n<p>If \u201cMultipolarity\u201d is the global franchise of fake democracy, then war can be seen as a\u00a0<strong>replacement for the ballot box.<\/strong>. We don\u2019t have global elections (yet); so their role in the system is assumed by geopolitical struggles; trade deals or staged\/limited \u201cwars\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Global unity government was and is a very unpopular idea, so its creeping implementation has to be disguised.\u00a0<strong>Nothing disguises unity of purpose so well as armed conflict.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The sheer number of people who repeat some variant of the argument\u00a0<em>\u201chow can they be on the same side, they\u2019re shooting at each other!\u201d<\/em>\u00a0is testament to the effectiveness of this strategy.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing\u00a0<strong>brings a populous together<\/strong>\u00a0so well as a perceived external threat. History is replete with rulers who, faced with discontent at home, started a war to garner support. A state of being at war tends to unite people behind the government.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the natural extension of this known tactic that two governments would agree to go to war in order to mutually benefit from this group-think dynamic.<\/p>\n<p>This is international geo-political game theory, as explained in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LJS7Igvk6ZM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A Beautiful Mind<\/a>. They both win if they agree not to truly compete.<\/p>\n<p>Both sides have corrupt political classes, both sides have arms manufacturers keen to profit from chaos, both sides crave \u201cemergency war-time powers\u201d to crack down on domestic dissent.<\/p>\n<p>So, we can see how the \u201cwar\u201d individually benefits the rulers of each side in the short term. But, more importantly, the supra-national powers have a larger, longer-term agenda (see below) that is also served by the war.<\/p>\n<p>War drives up prices, consumes resources, lowers the standard of living, justifies shortages and manufacturers scarcity.<\/p>\n<p>These factors combine to a make a state of being \u2013 or appearing to be \u2013 at war vital to the planned breakdown and reconstruction of society.<\/p>\n<p>This is not a new idea, the state has used the framing of war, or at least the threat of war, to boost national unity and increase state powers for centuries.<\/p>\n<p>The new twist is that these \u201cwars\u201d are not real, they are \u2013 to one extent or another \u2013 staged.<\/p>\n<h3>All the wars a stage<\/h3>\n<p>We are living in the age of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/off-guardian.org\/2024\/06\/27\/why-you-should-never-believe-your-eyes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the unreal<\/a>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/off-guardian.org\/2024\/01\/05\/the-perfidious-unreality-of-the-new-normal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Perfidious Unreality of the New Normal<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 as we discussed with all those quotation marks.<\/p>\n<p>We regularly live through \u201cterrorism\u201d that is no such thing, we hold \u201celections\u201d where\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/off-guardian.org\/2020\/11\/16\/6-factors-which-point-to-a-rigged-election\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the voting is irrelevant<\/a>, and we just had a worldwide \u201cpandemic\u201d\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/off-guardian.org\/2023\/03\/24\/40-facts-you-need-to-know-the-real-story-of-covid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">without a disease<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It is only natural that warfare should be folded into a propaganda control system that increasingly relies on simply making stuff up.<\/p>\n<p>Just as Western domestic \u201cdemocracies\u201d need \u201celections\u201d to maintain the illusion of the system, so too does a \u201cmultipolar world\u201d need \u201cwars\u201d to create the appearance of conflict.<\/p>\n<p>These wars are not real.<\/p>\n<p>Or perhaps \u201creal\u201d is not the best word to use \u2013 if you want we could say these wars are not\u00a0<em>honest<\/em>, not\u00a0<em>true<\/em>, not\u00a0<em>sincere<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>But what does staged war mean?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Does it mean no bombs are being dropped or people killed?<\/p>\n<p>No, as we have said many times: Be it in Ukraine or Gaza or Iran, there likely is death and destruction taking place \u2013 but that does not necessarily mean war.<\/p>\n<p>As Catte says in her\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/off-guardian.org\/2024\/04\/20\/war-in-the-new-normal-slaughtering-your-proles-for-convenience-fun-profit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2024 article<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Death isn\u2019t the definition of war.

No. Of course not.<\/p>\n<p>We know these governments and agencies do not care about\u00a0<em>their own people<\/em>, let alone\u00a0<em>each other\u2019s<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>People were disposable when they were being nailed inside their houses, given illegal DNR orders or injected with toxic Pfizer goo, and they\u2019re just as disposable when they\u2019re being blown up.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s like a psychopathic, murderous sport. The players are real \u2013 maybe they\u2019re playing to win or maybe paid to lose \u2013 but it doesn\u2019t really matter, since the struggle is controlled by a league which sets the terms.<\/p>\n<p>Numbers, times, places, rules and limitations are all agreed on beforehand.<\/p>\n<p>And, just like sport, the fans cheering hate each other far more than the players playing do, everyone gets paid no matter who wins, and the whole thing is owned by a handful of billionaires who all go to the same parties.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What would a staged war look like?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Well, that\u2019s a more complicated question.<\/p>\n<p>The simple answer is \u201ccoordination\u201d.
