The Great Dessert is a well-reasoned, conventional analysis of the crazy shit going on in our world. It may be as straightforward and consistent with past history as this account implies. All wars are bankers' wars. It's all about who controls the money system and who controls the resources.

But there are pieces left over when they've assembled the puzzle. What do you make of chemtrails? Is it a huge, secret weather control scheme, conducted in plain sight? Is it a conspiracy to poison people and nature from above? What about UFO disclosure, scheduled for this coming October? There are several whistleblowers who claim that Lockheed Skunkworks has reverse-engineered technology that would obsolete the technology on which the world's economy runs. Is there a "breakaway civilization", as described by Jason Jorjani and Richard Dolan? Is there a network of underground cities built with technologies that we can't imagine? Were these the same technologies used to build the Pyramids and Machu Picchu?

I don't claim to have any answers, but I suggest that these wild cards will be on the table within the next year, and the world will look different from anything we know how to think about, perhaps more crazy-making than we can handle.

Hi John. I read Fadi Lama's series with interest. I agree with some of it but, on the whole, it represents what I call the "BRICs Lived Happily Ever After" School of thought. Here is a more sobering antidote to Lama's "Two Worlds" scenario which I posted in a comment to his pieces. I currently belong to the school of thought that recognises only one global hegemon - global capital. I cannot see any evidence at this stage for the BRICs escaping that hegemony and, nor do I see any evidence for the BRICs being at the forefront of an enlightened economic and social order emerging from the ashes of the coming financial collapse. No one is sovereign under the current financial system. That's precisely why we're in the mess we're in. If the BRICs are building parallel financial systems, they're doing a very good job of hiding them! And if they don't plan to implement CBDCs and the biosecurity state, they're doing an even better job of hiding that too! Here are the comments I posted on Lama's substack:

Part 2

The conclusion in the final paragraph and the arguments leading up to it are plausible. However, it is a best-case scenario that ignores what I see as evidence for a sleight-of-hand trick by the Owners and Controllers of Global Financial Capital (Shahid Bolsen's very catchy term), or the Protected Class, using Russia and China as pawns. I think it’s possible that unfolding events are part of a move to create the illusion of “Two Worlds”. This is fake multipolarity. The evidence for this lies in the fact that both China and Russia actually seem to be ahead of the West in instituting Great Reset policies such as CBDCs and the bio-security state, to mention a few. These are features of a financial control grid being instigated by the OCFGC. If the RIC bloc were truly implementing their own parallel systems, why do their ‘new’ systems look exactly like the systems being implemented in the West by the OCGFC?

It seems to me that citizens of both worlds will be living under exactly the same form of global tyranny and that the OCGFC will be in command of both worlds, as it always has been, while perpetuating the pretence that the RIC bloc is in charge of its own world. This is a very convenient illusion to present to the Global South who will fall under the new BRICs empire because its citizens will welcome a new era of 'freedom' from the West, all the while being enslaved under a new empire – an empire ultimately controlled by the same financial masters who have held sway since time immemorial.

The author has not presented sufficient evidence for real financial independence of the RIC core (and its nascent BRIC’s replacement empire) from the true global hegemon, namely the OCGFC.

My view is that the OCGFC are engaging in deflation and a controlled demolition of the West’s debt bubble through deindustrialization and energy disinvestment while transferring wealth creation activity to the RICs bloc and the Global South. The show must go on; it's just going to continue somewhere else. The age old game of recycling of empires will go on for as long as humanity embraces hierarchical rule and government by their betters. I don't see a revolution in that regard any time too soon. The OCGFC thus retains control of the global financial system. The system is getting a makeover but the owners remain the same. The puppets may be changing but the puppeteer is the same.

To summarise: the view expressed by the author reflects what I see as an outdated ‘great powers’ geopolitical paradigm. In fact ‘outdated’ is not the right term because, with hindsight, I don’t think such a paradigm ever existed. There has only ever been one global hegemon and it’s the OCGFC. I don’t see that changing. I see that being consolidated even further.

Part 3

The scenario outlined under the section “End Game in the Western Realm” is entirely reasonable. However, I am afraid to say that the stuff under the first section “End Game for the Sovereigntist World” looks like something out of a fairy tale called “And the BRICs Lived Happily Ever After.” There is ZERO evidence for a BRICS-led “egalitarian world”. To repeat my comments made under Part 2, China is the world’s first technate – a brutal model of authoritarian technocratic control that the transnational deep state seeks to implement everywhere. China has already implemented the control grid that the author envisages will be implemented in the West as it collapses. That is not an accident. Covid was Act 1, Scene 1 in the New World Order play and China played its part flawlessly.

The author is correct to say that the technate is being implemented in the West precisely because it will be necessary to control the backlash against the pyramid collapse and ensuing rapid decline in Western living standards. On the other hand, it would be more realistic to acknowledge that populations in the east and the global south may tolerate the same technocratic hell hole only because they will have more bread and a relatively larger share of the global pie. I cannot see that this bait-and-switch move by the Owners and Controllers of Global Financial Capital will result in the ‘sovereigntist’ strawberries-and-cream world for the BRICs.

Yes “Ruthless ‘democracies’ will prevail in the Western Realm”. But ruthless dictatorships will also prevail in the Eastern and global south realm. The last 4 years have been a class war by the Owners and Controllers of Global Financial Capital against the whole planet. It might be waged using different tactics in different regions, but the aim is the same – total control of humanity.
