In this address at the With Liberty & Justice For All conference, Michael O’Fallon, founder of Sovereign Nations, explores the imperative of understanding the underlying causes driving the chaotic nature of our evolving world. He references Virgil’s ancient wisdom and emphasizes the deliberate cultivation of fear among individuals as a significant factor in recent challenges. O’Fallon discusses the Operational Preparation of the Environment (OPE) and its role in transitioning society into a constitution-less, fragmented, and eventually algorithmic global order. He observes a distressing trend of fostering fear, betrayal, and destruction among citizens, leading to calls for a fresh social contract and a complete overhaul of governance structures. O’Fallon highlights a top-down, bottom-up, and inside-out plan that has permeated various institutional structures, outlining a “great reset” affecting psychology, philosophy, spirituality, culture, and politics. He contends that the West faces a critical juncture with the rise of Asia and the dismantling of Western dominance, driven by elites and the Chinese Communist Party’s One Belt One Road initiative. O’Fallon predicts a shift away from US Dollar hegemony, capitalism, and democracy towards distributism, socialism, and authoritarianism. He also discusses the role of Critical Race Theory in sowing division and undermining constitutional republics, ultimately framing these developments as part of a broader scheme to disrupt and dismantle the West as the East and Global South ascend. O’Fallon concludes by suggesting that the West is caught in the Thucydides Trap and warns of an impending transformation into an algorithmic, authoritarian panopticon.
