The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has been exerting a large influence on corporations around the world in advancing its socialist agendas to emerge victorious agains the West, according to Trevor Loudon, a political researcher and EpochTV host.
The CCP exerts its influence in various ways, including: adopting its state capitalism economic model and supporting similar models for the world; promoting globalist policies that appeal to social justice issues and environmentalism; and nudging closer to globalist organizations that promote these agendas, such as the World Economic Forum (WEF) and the United Nations (UN).
“You see the Chinese social credit scores are coming to the West in the form of ESG scores, and you'll find this is driven by Chinese Communist Party-aligned companies, most of whom are affiliated to the World Economic Forum,” Mr. Loudon continued. “I don’t see a disconnect between globalism and the CCP. I see them as overlapping entities.”
WEF ‘Basically a Front For the CCP’
The CCP, ever since the late 1970s, adopted an economic model referred to as state capitalism, or the “China model”—it was the approach the regime took after having failed to transition to socialism directly from feudalism, Mr. Loudon said.“China model or ’state capitalism' is the stage of communism before going into socialism,” he said. “Marxism has several stages of development: primitive communism, feudalism, capitalism, socialism, communism. ... [The CCP] tried to go from feudalism to socialism, it was a massive failure. [It has] gone back to the state capitalism idea.”
The WEF recently met in Tianjin, China, on June 27–29 with representatives from more than 90 countries and regions. The event included praises for the China model of state capitalism.
“I believe the World Economic Forum, which promotes the stakeholder capitalism through [WEF founder] Klaus Schwab, is basically doing the Chinese Communist Party’s bidding,” he said, adding that he regards the WEF as “basically a front for the CCP.”
“[State capitalism] is the model that’s selling through the World Economic Forum to bring businesses into socialism. They don’t tell them the next stage will be socialism.
“This is about woke business. This is about the new way of doing business where government and [capitalist businesses] work together. This is the Chinese model.”
UN Agenda 2030
The CCP seeks to destroy the western economies in part via policies that appeal to environmentalism, and this is why it champions globalist initiatives such as the United Nation’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (Agenda 2030), Mr. Loudon said.He noted that in July 2022, the CCP held a large conference in China titled the “World Youth Development Forum," which was part of a campaign to implement the Agenda 2030. The event was attended by many young people from all around the world. Among the partners of the conference were the WEF, various UN agencies, as well as multiple youth communist groups.
“Agenda 2030 is a major pressure on the corporations to get more woke. And it’s going to have a massive, devastating effect on the western economies, it’s going to try and push all these net carbon-zero goals,” Mr. Loudon said.
“These things are all about destroying the energy resources of the West, which is our main advantage—the energy resources and technology. And it’s all about shifting the world balance of power, destroying the Western economies, so the Chinese can emerge victorious.”
In an example of how the United States is impacted, Mr. Loudon talks about how the New York-based National Defense Resource Council, which has a long-standing friendly relationship with the CCP is “one of the main organizations shutting down new developments, oil drilling, using environmental methods to shut down valuable projects in America.”
“The goal is to use environmentalism to rake the U.S. and Western economies so that the Chinese can more easily dominate. It’s nothing to do with the environment. It’s all a power struggle.”
