The Rahm rule states, "never let a serious crisis go to waste," because a crisis provides an opportunity to accomplish things that were previously impossible. Note: the deliberate sparking of wars and revolutions also occurs for the purpose of crisis management and the restructuring of existing markets. The leaders of the 2020 World Economic Forum (WEF) believed that the Covid pandemic was also suitable for applying the Rahm Rule, serving as a tool to implement radical changes in globalized capitalist societies and markets. As they noted, the Covid-19 pandemic offers a rare opportunity, unlike anything else in history. Thus, the crisis is necessary—e.g. the loss of jobs, the liquidation of businesses, the collapse of global supply chains, and their subsequent management—because it opens a window for governments and corporations to implement policies and reforms that go beyond the "unsuccessful" systems used until now. The WEF named this package of measures to be implemented by 2030 in the "Great Reset" program.

At the 2020 meeting, it was discussed for the first time that the era of the fourth industrial—specifically, the digital—revolution had arrived. If the first industrial revolution can be traced to the 1760s (the transition from agricultural to industrial production), the second to the 1890s (the emergence of electricity), and the third to the 1980s (the appearance of personal computers), then we are now undergoing the fourth revolution. This revolution unites all technological elements of previous industrial revolutions and transforms them into a transhumanist reality. In practice, this means that finance, corporations, the production of tools and products, transport, food production, the regulation of consumption, etc., will likely fall under a single networked control—perhaps a world government—and all of this will be managed and regulated using the tools of artificial intelligence. According to the WEF, it is time to manage the vast national and international digital databases available with advanced algorithms and AI. They believe the boundaries between physical and biological existence must be erased; in other words, it is time to establish a digital society. This attitude toward the future is irresponsible and risky, as it could pose an irreversible threat to us and our environment. It is worth asking: whose interests are being represented at a WEF meeting? Because those we see on stage are merely representatives of the propaganda machine—but who are the directors?

Just as in 2020, subsequent meetings have been attended by numerous multinational companies, banks, consultants, corporate groups, etc., who make decisions without having received any democratic mandate from anyone. From the outside, it looks like a meeting of gentlemen, a sort of coffee-house conversation, but in reality, it is not. The adoption of the proposals voiced there is pre-organized and intentional. The fact that these measures are serious is proven by the fact that in 2019, the WEF and the United Nations signed an agreement containing goals to be achieved jointly by 2030. The name of the adopted document is the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals for 2030 (UNSDG-2030), through which the WEF's propaganda program became an instrument of international law and politics. This allowed the goals of the transhumanism-supporting WEF to enter national government programs as UN recommendations. The program outlines 17 measures, some of which may even seem desirable, but the deeper analysis shows that, in this case too, the interests of the "backstage power" are gift-wrapped within them.

For example, in the implementation of the second goal (SDG 2), "Zero Hunger," there is a contradiction between the lines. The goal is planned to be achieved by merging small family farms into large corporations, using genetically modified crops, applying the biological modification of insects, and using special chemical additives and pesticides. International statistics on hunger show that the amount of food produced would be sufficient for the Earth's population, but distribution is imperfect and food waste is high. What we know is that there is no food shortage. A similar contradiction can be found in the implementation of the third goal (SDG 3), "ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all at all ages," as measures have been formulated that support research into vaccines and pharmaceuticals (i.e., pharmaceutical companies), including the testing and experimentation of new gene therapies, for example, in African countries.

According to Hajdu, the cooperation between the WEF and the UN enables the emergence of a digital, surveillance-based transhumanist civilization on an international level. For example, the 2023 interim report of the UN’s advisory body on Artificial Intelligence stated, regarding climate change management, that "AI-based tools can help develop new strategies and investments for emission reduction, influence new private sector investments toward net-zero, protect biodiversity, and build broad social resilience." UNESCO has formulated similar principles to those of the UN, for instance in a 2023 statement addressing the application of generative AI in education and research: "can humans outsource basic levels of thinking and skill acquisition to AI and focus instead on higher-order thinking skills based on the outputs provided by AI? ... humans can already start from a well-structured outline provided by generative AI." (UNESCO, Guidance for Generative AI in Education and Research [2023], 37-38).

However, the WEF influences national governments and EU decision-makers not only through the UN and UNESCO but also by utilizing influential and "promoted" university lecturers. For instance, a representative from an Israeli university announced at the 2020 WEF meeting that we will soon be designing human bodies, brains, and minds to such an extent that humans will be transformed into a species far more distinct than the Cro-Magnon man who lived 30,000 years before us. According to this trendsetter, we need radical changes because human biology is now a technology that can be "hacked." He believes the complexity of our bodies can be described as a system of algorithms that we can understand, modify, and ultimately rewrite. We must ask: do we truly need biological hacking, and is our blockchain-based genetic code truly hackable? Are we not endangering the biology of the future human? How intelligent, conscious, sensible, whole, or perfect will a human "edited" by ignorant engineers and biologists be?

As today’s new neo-Marxist, materialist, and neo-Darwinist views proclaim, for the past four billion years, life was guided by two factors: natural selection and biochemistry. But the time has come for future life forms to be determined not by the natural processes of biological life, but by intelligent human design, taking place, for example, in the clouds of IBM and Microsoft. We have reached the point where we are capable of breaking through the limits of natural life and entering an era of life that includes machine "life." A lecturer from a New York university reported that it is time to improve upon man’s imperfect biology, redefine the concept of useful organisms, and write new codes into the genetics that provide the foundation of life. We already have access to the building blocks of the genetic code and are capable of deleting, cutting, copying, pasting, activating, or "silencing" the genes that allow us to call ourselves human. This also means that new types of human life forms can be created with characteristics and abilities we have never possessed—for example, a new, cloned human could be created to serve as a soldier in combat. This profit-hungry, and power-driven way of thinking is based on the assumption that the created human is imperfect, and that creation itself is faulty and must be corrected. The problem with such thinking is that consciousness—which brings the human body to life, along with compassion and intellect—is not located in the body, but in the soul. The body is the vessel, and the soul is the form that gives the body substance. Not the other way around. But the interest of profit erases everything.
