Tuesday's Titillating Absurdities: The Bond Villains Roll Along at the WEF

In case you missed the news among all the coverage around the death of Pope Francis, another big story came with the sudden and immediate stepping down of Klaus Schwab from the Board of the WEF. Schwab had resigned last summer as the organization’s CEO but had remained in his position as executive chairman since that time.

Much has been made over the years of Schwab’s transparent, Soros-like hatred of the U.S. and of western democracy in general, and of his appearance, which is undeniably that of a classic Bond movie villain. As the son of a WWII Nazi collaborator who has played a lead role in the WEF since its inception, Schwab sports a resume’ of such a character as well.

Some avid conspiracy theorists have longed pushed the theory that Schwab is actually a real-life demon whose goal is to enslave the world under a despotic one-world government, a notion for which his many public statements favoring worldwide governance provide ample fodder. Had Schwab maintained the appearance of just a regular human, such theories would have likely gained far less traction than they have.
