I just can't understand why an organization like the IMF, which has a major financial incentives in maintaining the current system and a tremendous amount of power, would just blow it all up.

Just like most conspiracy theories, the idea just doesn't make sense once you get past the sensationalism. What kind of power are they seeking that they don't already have?

I wish I could say - you'd need to ask them, I guess. I will say that I have noticed that people care far more about the IMF and others than they did pre-pandemic.

It's mostly a rhetorical question, because the answers that conspiracy communities come up to basic questions like that often involve insane and fantastical misdirections like pedophilia.

You're the first mention of pedophilia in this thread :-)

But also you should realize that after attaining a certain level you cannot be bribed anymore and can only be blackmailed

Yeah when Alan Dershowitz says on TV that he was introduced to Epstein by Lynn R*thschild we shouldn't read too much into it right? Or when Cindy McCain says that everyone knew what Epstein was doing but no legal entity would go after him. Its fantastical really.

It was already going to blow up. Internationally, every country is in a credit hole so deep most will be unable to make interest payments in the next few years. The collapse was coming one way or the other, so the controlled demolition was chosen.

Whether you feel it was planned or not, the lockdowns did pretty much halt the velocity of money. Sure they printed a ton of social care money, but again the inflationary trap had already been set, it was the velocity that needed to be killed to buy some time.

IMF's business model is blowing up countries and then buying them for a song.

This idea extends the concept.
