We are immersed in an era dominated by misinformation and the constant noise of fabricated narratives. Rarely does a testimony as disturbing and charged with implications emerge as that found in The Great Taking, written by David Webb. This book not only unravels the invisible threads of global financial power, but also raises profound questions about who—or what—is truly in charge of this world, an idea also echoed by World Bank CEO Karen Judes. Is the architect of this oppressive system human? Or, as David Webb suggests, could it be something darker and more complex, something beyond our understanding?
What is The Great Taking?
David Webb, an Oxford mathematician, investor, activist, and programmer, has spent decades studying the hidden mechanisms of power. His work explores what he describes as "the expropriation of collateral," that is, the systematic confiscation of all financial assets, property, assets, and even intellectual property. According to Webb, this process is not an accident or an unintended consequence of the modern economy, but a meticulously designed plan to consolidate absolute control in the hands of a few. These words are not far-fetched at all; let us recall, at the beginning of the False Pandemic, the famous Great Reset proposed by the former president of the International Economic Forum, Mr. Klaus Schwab, and his famous phrase that "in 2030 you will own nothing and be happy."
It is the end of a globally synchronized cycle of debt accumulation. Now everything is debt. This has been initiated through a very clever, well-planned, and long-term plan. It is an audacious project, with a scope that is difficult to comprehend. The structure is complex and only a few minds understand it in its entirety.
It includes all assets: financial assets, bank deposits, stocks, bonds, and all underlying property of public corporations, including inventories, plants, equipment, land, mineral deposits, inventions, intellectual property, and absolutely everything. Private assets and real estate, financed by any level of debt, will also be expropriated. Private companies financed by debt will have even less chance, forming part of a larger strategy by a secret group seeking the greatest subjugation in world history.
In reality, this is a kind of hybrid war, conducted by deception, designed to achieve very broad objectives. Previously, conventional wars were the norm; today, it is about systems of control with minimal energy expenditure. The enemy is no longer states, but all of humanity.
The strict private control of all central banks and monetary creation has allowed a few individuals to control political parties, governments, intelligence agencies, armed forces, police forces, large corporations, and the media. These people, primarily the instigators of this plan, have operated for decades and in complete secrecy.
But here comes the most disturbing part: Webb suggests that those orchestrating this grand takeover may not be human. Citing figures like George Soros, who once said, "You don't know what these beings can do!", the author suggests that there is something beyond the visible. Superhuman intelligences? Beings operating from the shadows, using people as mere puppets? The questions remain, but the implications are profound.
These beings are hidden behind those who control this war against humanity. We may never know who they really are, even those in high command, as they could be other intelligences or entities using public figures and media to give the appearance of control. In reality, those at the top are not the true perpetrators. What they seek is to seize all your property, even the ones you thought were yours, through their centralized digital currency, limiting your purchases and freedoms.
The Mechanism of Financial Control
Webb explains how money has been turned into an extremely efficient tool of social domination. Through monetary incentives, people self-manage without the need for direct physical coercion. This allows the powers that be to maintain their influence with minimal energy expenditure. However, when this system fails—as in financial crises—physical control comes into play.
Great powers always talk about the media, states, and governments that depend on them, and use the phrase: "the right to security." As Machiavelli said, "Never attempt to gain by force what you can achieve by deceit." The greatest historical manipulation has been based on that lie, on the concept of "security." We are told: "For your security, we will do this or that." In future financial panics, it will be like a game of musical chairs: when the music stops, many will not have seats. Uncontrolled financing seeks to create the threat of collapses and offer continuous profits, controlling nations in the process. A historical example Webb uses is the Great Depression of 1933 in the United States. During that period, banks were closed by decree, leaving millions of people without access to their savings. Here's an anecdote Webb tells:
My Aunt Elizabeth was 10 years old when the banks were closed by decree in 1933. When I asked her to tell me about that Great Depression, she told me that suddenly no one had any money. That even wealthy families had no money and had to take their children out of private schools because they couldn't afford the tuition. I also asked her why even those wealthy families couldn't send their children back to school after the banks reopened. And the answer she gave me was this: only Federal Reserve banks and banks selected by the Federal Reserve were allowed to reopen. People with money in banks that weren't allowed to reopen lost everything. However, their debts weren't canceled. They were assumed by other banks. That is, they take away all your savings, all your property, and leave you with debts.
Only those banks selected by the Federal Reserve were able to reopen, while the rest collapsed. The wealthy families who had accounts in those banks lost everything, but their debts remained intact. These debts were absorbed by the surviving banks, which then foreclosed and seized property en masse.
This strategy not only allowed the banks to consolidate, but also transformed the former owners into perpetual tenants. It was a massive upward transfer of wealth, disguised under the guise of "stabilizing the economy." Today, according to Webb, we are witnessing a repeat of this pattern, but amplified on a global scale.” (Something we have discussed in other articles on this Substack.)
The Gold Prohibition and the Birth of Absolute Control
Seemingly, the entire American public was now the enemy. One of the most revealing episodes mentioned in the book is the gold ban in the United States during the 1930s. At that time, any citizen who owned gold was considered a criminal. The gold had to be turned over to the Federal Reserve, and those who violated this order faced fines or imprisonment.
Why did they take this measure? The answer is simple: to expand credit and ensure that no one could escape the financial system. With gold out of circulation, the value of money became completely tied to trust in the state and central banks. This change marked the beginning of a new economic paradigm based on debt, where people became prisoners of a system designed to keep them indefinitely in debt.
Now we can understand the purpose of the construction of the Federal Reserve. In 1923, that is, years before, the world's largest bank vault was erected along with a fortified building. I'm referring to the vault where the United States National Treasury is currently kept, located at 33 Liberty Street in Manhattan, as well as Fort Knox, where all the gold is said to be stored. It's important to note that these facilities were built before the ban on gold holdings. This suggests that these hidden intelligences were already planning everything in advance.
The Coming Financial Collapse
Webb warns of an upcoming global financial collapse, comparable to that of 1929, but far more devastating due to the current magnitude of debt. The current low interest rates are part of the bait used to lure people into the debt trap. When rates rise again, millions of individuals and businesses will be unable to meet their financial obligations, triggering a wave of foreclosures and mass confiscations.
The architects of this great plunder have planned and prepared to utilize this dynamic to the fullest. They are confident in their knowledge that, just as night follows day, a massive and prolonged deflation can be produced.
This process is no accident; it has been planned for decades. The architects of the Great Plunder know exactly how to play with economic cycles to maximize their profits and consolidate their power. Prolonged deflation will be used as a weapon to ruin the middle and lower classes, leaving them completely dependent on the state and corporations.
The debt is not real, but an invention designed to seize tangible assets. The powers that be have created a complex legal system that prevents states from issuing money, justifying it by protecting depositors, even though in reality private banks are being bailed out with trillions of dollars. The same logic does not apply to depositors, revealing an agenda of privatization and control. This "Great Reset" seeks to establish a perpetual feudal system, plunging the population into privatization and fear, disguised by promises of security. Those who supposedly protect us from the bad guys, are the bad guys.
What these powers seek to establish is, in essence, technological feudalism. In this new order, the population will be reduced to a precarious existence, living under constant security threats and total surveillance. The promise of protection and well-being will be used as an excuse to justify each new control measure. Remember Machiavelli's words: "Never try to win by force what you can obtain by deception."
The use of fear is key to this strategy. We have already seen signs of it in recent years, with massive media campaigns, censorship, arbitrary arrests, and draconian measures disguised as "public safety." All of this is part of a larger plan to dehumanize society and prepare it for total submission.
How to Fight This?
These people, or perhaps beings, do not reflect true human development or the future of humanity. They lack essential human qualities and are aberrant. Their antipathy toward humanity is unprecedented.
Faced with such a formidable adversary, what can ordinary citizens do? According to Webb, the key lies in education and organization. Although it may seem impossible to defeat a 1% that controls practically everything, we are actually talking about a much smaller group: the 0.01%. Their resources are vast, but their numbers are limited. It is very difficult to achieve anything when everything is bought by these beings. In a system where they control the flow of capital, accumulating wealth can become counterproductive. The important thing is to build resilient, self-sufficient communities that are aware of the mechanisms of manipulation we face.
The message of “The Great Taking” is clear: we are living in a crucial moment in human history. The events that lie ahead will determine whether we remain free or fall into perpetual digital slavery.
David Webb offers us a warning, but also an opportunity. By exposing the mechanisms of the Great Taking is clear: we are living in a crucial moment in human history. The events that lie a, he gives us the tools to resist. It's up to us to decide whether we want to be part of the problem or part of the change needed to rebuild a just and humane world.
Alan Watt, probably the best of all NWO Whistleblower:
2013: "The material world was conquered eons ago by anti-creators - those who could not create but who could reshape into systems, made in their own deviant image. They have been liars and murderers from the beginning."
2010: …”Why is it that the Rothschilds come onto the scene as a revolutionary family? Why is it they suddenly procured five countries with five sons to create central banks or take the central banks over which already existed? Why is it that right to the present timing they are at the forefront of world politics? Why doesn’t a generation of the Rothschild doesn’t go off in some other direction or lose interest? You're dealing here with a specific religion: a religion and a cause; a purpose. You will only find this kind of fanatical intergenerational devotion to an agenda when there is some kind of religion involved in it. When did all these families crop up? With the banks..”
Then there is the link to Kabbalah and ritualistic magik.
A preexisting machine intelligence masquerading as a higher power perhaps the Demiurge. The Archons manipulating human minds and/or some kind of Egregore impinging on its human host. They're fond of throwing all kinds of religious archetypes as well as fears, resentment and desires to find one they can elicit a negative emotion to feed on. They transition easily between dreams and waking life often reinforcing memes through unbelievable timing and synchronicity with trauma based personality change and operant conditioning through the use of anchors like a repeated sound or phrase. The operators run the gamut from groups of sneering millenials doing street theatre and advanced scripted nlp sessions with spooks possibly military intelligence.
