\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Anyone entertaining hopes that planet Earth might escape the insanity of 2020 without any more conscience-blowing stories may wish to fasten their seatbelts for a hard landing.<\/p>\n

At a time when a global pandemic has swept away millions of jobs, and transformed a handful of global capitalists from \u2018merely wealthy\u2019 to fantastically wealthy overnight, Pope Francis has decided to take sides in this epic battle. Any hunches what side that might be? Hint: much like the Vatican, it is immensely wealthy, influential, and acts like a government unto itself.<\/p>\n

Yes, you guessed it. Instead of the poor and destitute \u2013 you know, \u2018the meek who shall inherit the earth<\/em>\u2019 rigmarole \u2013 taking their rightful place alongside the Pope to fight against globalization on steroids, the Vatican has announced it will form a \u201chistoric partnership<\/em>\u201d with big business, known as the Council for Inclusive Capitalism. You can\u2019t make this stuff up. And make no mistake: this is no mere talk shop, but rather a vast undertaking that involves \u201cmore than $10.5 trillion in assets under management, companies with over $2.1 trillion of market capitalization, and 200 million workers in more than 163 countries<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCapitalism has created enormous global prosperity, but it has also left too many people behind, led to the degradation of our planet, and is not widely trusted in society<\/em>,\u201d said Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, Founder of the Council and Managing Partner of Inclusive Capital Partners. \u201cThis council will follow the warning from Pope Francis to listen to \u2018the cry of the Earth and the cry of the poor\u2019 and answer society\u2019s demands for a more equitable and sustainable model of growth.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

In other words, in an apparent act of “divine intervention”, the Rothschild family (whose wealth is estimated at $20 billion, although nobody really knows for sure), together with other famous brand names of globalization, such as the Rockefellers and Mastercard, will now take up the standard for the world\u2019s downtrodden. Who will be the first one to hold their breath?<\/p>\n

You may contain your skepticism until you dig dipper into this contract between the Catholic Church and corporate power. Any guesses as to who will ensure the corporate chieftains live up to their end of the bargain?<\/p>\n

Known as the Guardians for Inclusive Capitalism, these 27 devout and morally outstanding individuals all hail from the golden one percent. Let\u2019s call them the Pope\u2019s 27 billionaire disciples. Really outstanding people, such as President of the Rockefeller Foundation Rajiv Shah, CEO of Mastercard Ajay Banga, and CEO of Salesforce Marc Benioff, will now behave like \u2018Good Samaritans\u2019, carrying out the will of the Holy See around a ravaged, lockdown-wearied planet. And here is the catch: there is not a single Vatican cardinal or even a deacon on the list of Guardians. So, who will guard over the guardians? Yes, the corporate elite themselves! They must have read Donald Trump\u2019s \u2018The Art of the Deal<\/em>\u2019.<\/p>\n

The initial skepticism shot into overdrive when it became clear what acts of charity the council would promote: \u201cThe Guardians will hold themselves accountable, committing to a list of intended actions involving environmental, social and governance matters<\/em>,\u201d Forbes<\/em> reported. \u201cThe Guardians \u2026 have said they plan to hire and promote more women, increase diversity hires, commit to clean energy by purchasing 100% renewable electricity, reduce greenhouse gas emissions<\/em>\u2026\u201d Yada, yada, yada.<\/p>\n

Someone may say: \u201cForgive me, Father, but that sounds an awful lot like the controversial progressive platform being touted by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris that has divided the United States down the middle<\/em>\u201d. In other words, this unholy marriage has already alienated at least one half of the US population, who fear a Biden presidency will herald in an age of socialism in America. Meanwhile, it is hardly reassuring that these profit-driven individuals will be allowed to \u201chold themselves accountable<\/em>\u201d to take on unspecified \u201csocial and governance matters<\/em>\u201d and \u201cother initiatives<\/em>,\u201d whatever those happen to be.<\/p>\n

The reason for suspicion should be obvious. Aside from the absurdity of letting profit-driven corporations play guardian over themselves, we are now living in a time when these out-of-control behemoths are no longer content to just hawk their products to consumers; they have taken a serious stand on cultural and political issues, which many people find unacceptable yet must bear silently with a smile.<\/p>\n

Using their profits from consumer spending, corporations such as Coca-Cola can run an extremely controversial Sprite advertisement campaign, for example, that promotes a transgender lifestyle and that will be seen by millions of impressionable children. Or how about Gillette\u2019s massively disappointing (and disliked) commercial that took issue with so-called \u2018toxic masculinity<\/em>.\u2019 Are these the \u201cother initiatives<\/em>\u201d that corporations will be forcing on an unsuspecting public with the stamp of papal authority? We\u2019ve never heard Pope Francis speak out against these extremely provocative ideas.<\/p>\n

Perhaps even more worrying is that many companies, compelled to prove they are taking a stand on behalf of the latest cause c\u00e9l\u00e8bre, have enthusiastically jumped aboard the Black Lives Matter juggernaut, which critics \u2013 of which there is no shortage, even among the black American population \u2013 say works to the disadvantage of other races, not least white Americans, who have become the bane of Western civilization overnight.<\/p>\n

Is this the sort of \u2018equality\u2019 big business will be promoting with the quiet blessing of the Vatican? In their woke bid to become more \u2018equal and diverse<\/em>,\u2019 will corporations begin to promote particular groups of people at the expense of others? After all, the Trump administration was just forced to take executive action against \u2018critical race theory<\/em>\u2019 inside the government, while academia is now rampant with lectures teaching the evils of the ignoble white man. Are we on the precipice of a new age of racism in the United States and elsewhere, where the historic tables are turned with the help of corporate America?<\/p>\n

The Council for Inclusive Capitalism is nothing more and nothing less than a cynical PR stunt for corporate power that allows their controversial initiatives, heavily steeped in the rapacious accumulation of profit, as well as the promotion of dangerous \u2018woke\u2019 values, to win the seal of approval from one of the most powerful religious authorities on the planet.<\/p>\n

Such a program really amounts to an act of conscienceless virtue-signaling from the Catholic Church, which has fallen out of favor of late, and a cheap opportunity for the corporate world to conceal its behavior behind the shroud of morality and saintliness. It would have been far more effective and symbolic had Pope Francis committed himself to a contract with the people, with his true followers, in the fight against corporate power. Instead, he made a pact with the devil.<\/p>\n
