In the controversial and thought-provoking book “Great Reset,” authored by Dr. C. E. Nyder and his collective, we are taken on an intricate journey through the recent transformative events shaping our world. This book sets the stage for a critical examination of global shifts, particularly focusing on the intersection of German realpolitik and broader globalist agendas.
The Tsunami and the Energiewende
The narrative begins with a pivotal moment in recent German history: March 11, 2011. On this day, a devastating tsunami struck off the coast of Japan, leading then-Chancellor Angela Merkel to declare a state of emergency in Germany. This marked the inception of the “Energiewende”, or energy transition, a move initially seen as a bold step towards sustainable energy. However, a decade later, this policy has revealed itself as a massive redistribution program, disproportionately burdening ordinary German consumers and industries with some of the highest energy costs globally. More than two million people annually struggle to afford their energy consumption.
But beyond the economic and social ramifications, the Energiewende signified a deeper shift in German politics. The security of Germany’s industrial base was now subject to the moral scrutiny of an ethics commission, questioning the use of nuclear energy. This move marked a departure from rational policy-making towards a more moralistic approach, driven by events thousands of kilometers away.
The Refugee Crisis and State Disintegration
The book then transitions to the refugee crisis, which it portrays as a critical juncture leading to the dissolution of the German state. Starting with the “March of Hope” and the ensuing “welcoming culture,” the authors argue that moral imperatives began to override legal norms, fueled by media propaganda. This period saw a rapid transformation of Germany from a homogeneous society to a more diverse, multicultural one, beginning in earnest in September 2015.
The ensuing sections of the book delve into the erosion of the rule of law and internal security, exacerbated by Merkel’s open-border policy. Crime statistics, the authors argue, reveal the latent violence potential of new arrivals, often euphemistically referred to as “gems” and “gifts” by liberal circles.
Part Two: Democracy, National State, and Civil Society Under Siege
Moving into the second part of the book, the focus shifts to examining how far the Berlin Republic has progressed towards a “Great Reset.” This part diverges from a chronological narrative to an open, thematic exploration of the advances of the Californian ideology and globalism towards a New World Order.
Despite uncertainties about the future societal and governance structures post-Great Reset, the authors assert that we are at a historic turning point, comparable to the fall of Rome. The conflict between globalism and particularism is approaching a decisive moment, with tech giants playing a significant role in steering this “world revolution from above,” particularly evident in their interference in the US elections and the COVID-19 crisis.
A Changing Approach
Acknowledging the ongoing and often contradictory nature of these global shifts, the book adopts an open, associative approach. Rather than proving a thesis in classical historical analysis, it aims to provide readers with new perspectives for further contemplation.
The following five chapters do not follow a chronological order but are thematically arranged, each offering a different vantage point on the threat to democratic constitutional states in Germany and beyond. These themes serve as bridgeheads for further exploration.
Key Themes: Society, Executives, and Ideological Guardians
Chapter ten addresses the deliberate destruction of German society, from the anti-German zeitgeist among the Berlin elite to the erosion of national identity and the disempowerment of the nation-state. Identity politics, a primary tool for internal societal erosion, is highlighted as a fragmenting force.
Subsequent chapters focus on non-state executive organs that have emerged alongside traditional law enforcement. The Antifa, now state-funded and represented in the Bundestag, is portrayed as an enforcer of ideological purity on the streets. Similarly, the “Fridays for Future” movement is examined as a product of globalist elites, advocating for a “Great Transformation” synonymous with the Great Reset.
Tech Giants and the Globalist Agenda
The tech giants, described as the third non-state executive organ, are scrutinized for their role in advancing the Californian ideology. Once symbols of freedom, the internet and tech platforms are now seen as tools for indoctrination and repression.
External and Internal Threats to the Democratic State
Chapters twelve and thirteen explore external and internal threats to democratic states, focusing on migration and the looming “climate catastrophe.” The Berlin Republic’s migration policies are criticized for aiming at an irreversible demographic and cultural transformation, potentially paving the way for a future slave society. The UN Migration Pact is depicted as a declaration of war against the Old World and its cultures, pushing for a new, colorful world society at the expense of native Europeans.
The book also examines the climate agenda, likening it to the Great Reset in its revolutionary zeal. The “Green New Deal” is presented as a de-industrialization and impoverishment program, threatening private property and pushing for absolute equality, echoing totalitarian ideologies of the past.
COVID-19: A Prelude to the Great Transformation
In chapter fourteen, the connection between the alleged imminent climate catastrophe and the COVID-19 pandemic is explored. Pandemic measures are seen as a prelude and general rehearsal for the Great Transformation, creating political facts that undermine democratic principles. The Bundestag‘s role is reduced to rubber-stamping decisions made by un-elected bodies like the Minister President Conference, reflecting a hollowing out of parliamentary democracy.
The Path Forward
The book concludes by presenting the stark choice facing European nations: between subjugation and freedom. Despite the overwhelming power of the globalist elites rallying under the “Great Reset” banner, the authors find hope in reality itself, which they argue will ultimately triumph over ideological fantasies. Loyalty to the constitution, freedom, and fraternity are seen as essential tools for navigating the challenges ahead.
“The Great Reset” by Dr. C. E. Nyder and his collective offers a sobering and critical perspective on contemporary global and German political dynamics, urging readers to reflect on the significant changes and their implications for democracy, national identity, and civil society.
