Mark Zuckerberg, founder of the Facebook social media network, has said that the world needs a “global superstructure” for humanity to “get to the next level.”
“There’s a social infrastructure that needs to get built for modern problems in order for humanity to get to the next level,” he said in an interview with Farhad Manjoo in the New York Times Magazine.
Zuckerberg’s globalist vision goes way beyond Facebook. “Having more people oriented not just toward short-term things but toward building the long-term social infrastructure that needs to get built across all these things in order to enable people to come together is going to be a really important thing over the next decades.”
And Zuckerberg appears to be positioning himself to play a major role in it. “Zuckerberg is arguing for a kind of digital-era version of the global institution-building that the Western world engaged in after World War II.”
While that, in itself, is significant, there is a darker side to it. Zuckerberg “is a chief executive and not an elected president, there is something frightening about his project.”
Think about what Zuckerberg is currently attempting to do. According to the interview with Zuckerberg, he is purposefully positioning himself as a key figure in the future digital environment: “He is positioning Facebook — and, considering that he commands absolute voting control of the company, he is positioning himself — as a critical enabler of the next generation of human society. A minor problem with his mission is that it drips with megalomania, albeit of a particularly sincere sort,” said Manjoo.
Facebook has recently decided to hire partisan left-leaning fact checkers such as ABC News, Snopes, Politifact and even the George Soros-funded Correctiv to police “fake news” on their platform, which begs the question, what type of “global superstructure” Zuckerberg wants to create. “We’re getting to a point where the biggest opportunities I think in the world… problems like preventing pandemics from spreading or ending terrorism, all these things, they require a level of coordination and connection that I don’t think can only be solved by the current systems that we have.”
“What’s needed, he argues, is some global superstructure to advance humanity,” said Manjoo.
Manjoo notes that Zuckerberg acts in quite a casual manner about his plans to transition from the current infrastructure of the world into his newest vision. “Zuckerberg is often blasé about the messiness of the transition between the world we’re in and the one he wants to create through software,” he notes. “Building new ‘social infrastructure’ usually involves tearing older infrastructure down. If you manage the demolition poorly, you might undermine what comes next. In the case of the shattering media landscape, Zuckerberg seems finally to have at least noticed this problem and may yet come up with fixes for it. But in the meantime, Facebook rushes headlong into murky new areas, uncovering new dystopian possibilities at every turn.”
As we near the end of time, globalization will become more intense, prominent and digitized. It is increasingly dependent on a global digital network, which will play into the final efforts to contain the final message God has given to the world. Will Zuckerberg play a key role in working to prevent God’s last message of warning from being heard? Nebuchadnezzar attempted a global worship system, which involved social media, at least the type they had back then.
“Then an herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages, That at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up: And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.” Daniel 3:4-6.

Wednesday May 24th, 2017 at 06:49 AMWe are approaching the close of time . The devil invents every possible device to engross the mind. GC.Who knows what MZ is capable of doing in the near future but one thing we should be aware that the devil is luring peoples mind to get far away from studying the truth & searching the scriptures. If this medium is not use to every ones ability to spread the truth they will be caught in the web of satans snares of using it for their glofications. It’s a social media, for many users and its one of Satan’s playground to keep the minds entertained. It’s all coming a time when all these agencies of the devil work together to get all people bow to the beast and his image. It’s face the bible time rather then face the book. I say. Those who follow Christ are ever safe under His watch care. ☝Upward and forward ☺
