Assange explains that since at least the 1970s, an all-out war was waged against independent activism. The rise of neoliberalism, corporate takeovers, and the consolidation of financial power crushed authentic resistance. Unions were destroyed. Churches were co-opted. Independent voices were bought out or silenced.

In their place, a new type of civil society was engineered—a synthetic activism, manufactured by billionaires, governments, and corporations to serve their interests while pretending to be “for the people.”

This is why today’s NGOs never challenge real centers of power. Instead, they operate as proxy battalions for the global elite, waging political warfare under the disguise of “humanitarian work.”
