A group of anarchists called “Storm Clouds Gathering” are saying that what’s happening in the world today (war in Europe; energy price hikes; western governments becoming much more authoritarian) is precipitating the end of western-style democracy and the start of a Chinese-style economy and dictatorship.
They say this will come about through cyber and economic warfare, and that the way to stop it is through a so-called colour revolution.
How to Overthrow Governments – The Color Revolution Formula – Final Messages Part 3
I’m interested to know what other comrades think of this, and whether a colour revolution is something we should pursue.

A very long article that goes into much more detail:
Technocracy: The Operating System For The New International Rules-Based Order
The new world order is capitalism, and it started about three hundred ago, and now is a worldly economic system. The new world order is going to be socialism/communism. The conspiracists and the leftwingers have predicted several new world orders based on false theories and speculations
The article is using the term “technocracy” (power in the hands of technical experts) in the sense of those who coined the term in the 1930s.
“Technocracy demands that the activity of every citizen be continually recorded and controlled. It requires constant surveillance of the population.
This enables the Technate’s total energy expenditure to be calculated in real time. The data is then collated and analysed in order for the central committee of technocrats to manage and distribute the Technate’s resources right down to the level of the individual.
Scott and Hubbert planned a new monetary system based upon energy consumption, with goods and services priced according to the energy cost of production. Citizens would be allocated the new currency in the form of ‘energy certificates.’”They got one thing right — that society is capable of producing an abundance of what people need but is held back by the capitalist system of production for profit. But they were wrong in thinking that the production of this abundance could and should be organised by a elite of engineers.
Today’s Zeitgeist Movement is in a direct line of descent, via Jacque Fresco, of the Technocrat movement though they have abandoned the idea of energy-time vouchers in favour of no money, but still don’t really accept democratic control (one of our criticisms of them).
I don’t think that China can be described as a technocracy in the original sense. Politically, it’s a one-party dictatorship; economically it is capitalist.
ps the new world order will of course be world socialism !
Here’s an article from the February 1933 Socialist Standrd on the Technocracy movement:
Thanks for the feedback, Adam.
Another interesting article from the standard archives. This one is about the World Economic Forum; their annual meetings in Davos; and real-life Bond-villain Klaus Schwab: https://www.worldsocialism.org/spgb/socialist-standard/2014/2010s/no-1315-march-2014/davos-elites-think-globally-act-greedily/
Some of those conceptions come from Frederik Taylor, one of the founder of Inudstrial Engineering and Scientific Management, before that Henry Ford created the assembly line for production, and the same method was applied in the Soviet Union, Stalin was a great admirer of Ford and the assembly line
