The book being highlighted appears to be COVID-19: The Great Reset. See also: https://www.weforum.org/great-reset/. They recently had a promo video running that said something to the effect of, "In 2030 you will own nothing and you'll be happy." (paraphrasing) That video was taken down allegedly due to backlash about that statement.
but if you don't want to, here's the wikipedia article
Was it hate, ineptitude, or something more nefarious.
If nefarious, does it maybe have something to do with this great reset, Trudeau and Klaus Schwab was on about?
I think the term is Imperialistic Warmongering.

Scratch a liberal, a fascist bleeds. Neoliberal foreign policy is one of torture, of both the people and the economy. Would you like to know more?
Actually don't need to be tech-savvy, just economic-savvy(and if you're in this sub without knowing basic economics, you get McNuked :3).
Bitcoin mining can use various types of hardware to mine(including Graphic Processing Units/GPUs, such as the GTX 1080s in the OP).
Thus, demand for GPUs has increased. What happens to prices when demand increases?
That is why OP is butthurt about Bitcoin.
^(or the shortages in case there wasn't a price increase)
If you noticed, people on "the left" are upset with the system. People on "the right" are upset with the system.
Those of us who are on the outside are upset with the system.
This isn't a coincidence. Before you can install a new system, you need everyone to be upset with the existing one.
Also, you need people to feel pressure. Duress.
When enough people are upset, all at once -- and under incredible pressure (be it mental, like Covid-19 or economic, like lockdowns) -- they will introduce the answer.
The answer can be read about in Klaus Schwab's new book: "Covid-19: The Great Reset." https://www.amazon.com/COVID-19-Great-Reset-Klaus-Schwab/dp/2940631123/
Klaus Schwab is the head of the WEF. We've also seen also have public facing discussions with Jerome Powell from the Fed, with 6 other world financial leaders at the IMF conference -- talking about how developments related to the Covid-19 vaccine will pave the way for global biometric identity, which is required for Central Bank Digital Currency.
People's eyes glaze over discussions like this, because they aren't "exciting soundbites" or "titillating conspiracy theories."
But this is real... It's "hidden in plain sight," and the powers that be are doing this indirectly without full understanding by the people who are going along with it as a result of emotionalized propaganda and virus fear campaigns.
EDIT: Bold added for possibly easier skimming.
Read Naomi Kleins book on the subject. It is a serious eye opener.

Fuck off. Its a prosperous government for corporate interests and the wealthy, not the people. Which is exactly how neoliberal economies are designed to function (thanks Milton Friedman). Don't even talk about "converting through violence" after what Pinochet (with American help I might add) did to socialists and any nominally leftist people; thousands tortured and disappeared after a coup against a DEMOCRATICALLY elected socialist government under Salvadore Allende. You do some fucking research you lying ghoul.
Honestly, HK was the moment it became clear that Maxwell was the John Perkins of Bitcoin. "Confessions of an Economic Hitman" is a must read to understand the hijacking of Bitcoin. It took only one guy on the inside of Chas T. Main engineering to put countries billions in debt. To put Bitcoin in the hands of the banks it took only one neckbeard rat willing to sell out.
Signing the HK agreement ~~proves~~ strongly suggests that u/adam3us and u/luke-jr were out of the loop.
The whole computer revolution is due to federal research funding in this sector. He especially received so much benefit to improvements in semiconductors and memory that is due to government research. The Entrepreneurial State: Debunking Public vs. Private Sector Myths (Anthem Other Canon Economics) https://www.amazon.com/dp/0857282522/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_VlJsCbC01MTP5 is a fascinating book on the topic. Freakonomics did a podcast with her too http://freakonomics.com/podcast/mariana-mazzucato/
Using covid19 to lockdown citizens was the first step. The elites have been trying for the great reset for the last 20 years.

Both Economics in One Lesson and Basic Economics are golden, though for very different reasons.
Economics is One Lesson starts with a truth that is obvious and simple once you hear it explained. You think to yourself, "Well, yeah. Who could possibly think otherwise?" And then you hop onto Reddit and see that a substantial preponderance of Reddit are afflicted with a mindset and beliefs that fly in the face of this simple truth. It then spends time expanding on this truth and applying it to tons of different things that you wouldn't intuitively see it applying to.
Basic Economics is better though. Both are well worth reading, but Sowell's work is incredibly comprehensive. When I read it, it didn't come across as someone trying to prove any world view, as tends to be the case from so many economists. It is him simply seeking to explain economics to someone who is new to the field. To his credit, he uses terminology that is accessible to anyone and doesn't spend a single moment trying to prove to how smart he is. (Though his brilliance is immediately evident.) Its most important quality is that it doesn't ask you to partake in a string of thought experiments to reach some grand conclusions. Every assertion he makes is supported by multiple studies and historical examples. This happens time and time again. And the bolder the claim, the more evidence he provides. It's remarkable.
While it does weigh in at 700-ish pages, Basic Economics is almost certainly the perfect book for getting your feet wet when in economics.
hahahaha you gotta be larping and memeing. do you know about this book? amazon.com/COVID-19-Great-Reset-Klaus-Schwab/dp/2940631123
just look up "the world economic forum." this is where the "you will eat the bugs, you will live in the pods" etc meme comes from. if you genuinely don't know about any of this, that is mildly troubling. maybe your subconscious absorbed this information somewhere else on the internet, but the way you describe your dream is just too on the nose not to be a meme.
Read the book on the topic, written by the head of the world economic forum. https://www.amazon.com/COVID-19-Great-Reset-Klaus-Schwab/dp/2940631123
How to prepare will depend largely, I think, on how much of their vision they can push into reality.
Why don't you read the book? Total societal control is needed to fully implement the Great Reset, many of the concepts can't go forward with pesky things like human rights, privacy laws and freedoms. This round was a priming and removing of some obstacles. You can't go too quickly or the population will rebel. A huge amount of progress was made and society largely accepted and encouraged the actions. We are well on our way but they need to regroup or risk too much opposition.
https://www.amazon.com/COVID-19-Great-Reset-Klaus-Schwab/dp/2940631123
It does look like to the majority of the left, but that's not the case. If you have an example, I can do my best to explain the stance (whether or not I agree with it). But, I will say that a lot of regulation that intends to protect the poor from the rich actually ends up being counter-productive. The goals of a regulation are often very different from the incentives it creates. The best example of that, I think, is rent control. The goals of rent control are very noble, but the perverse incentives it creates actually end up greatly reducing the amount and quality of available low-income housing. Thomas Sowell goes into in the book I'm reading, which I think you can read on the Amazon page w/o needing Prime or to buy a copy. If you click the "Look Inside" button above the image of the cover, you should be able to get to the section on Price Controls. The first in-depth section is on rent control. Ya know, if you're interested. It's a dry subject, but I think Sowell does a great job of making it understandable to those of that aren't economists.
Also, and I'm not saying you're definitely making this mistake, but a mistake a ton of people make is that they think the economy and wealth are zero-sum. The far-left subs (r/LateStageCapitalism etc) routinely misunderstand how net worth is calculated and what it actually means.
This book was sent to all world leaders by the head of the World Economic Forum, which is the mouthpiece for the network of central banks that have economic control over most nations. If you're not familiar with the history of central banking and debt slavery, this is a good series to watch to get you an idea of the history of the world's ruling class.
It's worth considering whether "ushering in a revolution in capitalism, to the benefit of the elite" was the point.
Klaus Schwab is the Founder and Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum. He wrote COVID-19: The Great Reset, available in paperback, describing his proposed "stakeholder capitalism" economic model.
Look no further than those who benefitted from the lockdowns, and you'll find their strongest advocates among the world's elite in government and business. Likewise, you'll readily notice that anyone who uses the phrase "build back better," seems perfectly content to do their bidding.
Klaus Schwab even wrote a book about it. They also have a YouTube channel promoting their ideas.
It's not a conspiracy theory, but they obviously need to fail and likely will because it's too crazy and there's too many who will fight back. They're talking about a "cyber pandemic" next. Absolute psychopaths.
Hi, I just read your book, Klaus Schwab:
You will own nothing and like it!
Part of the Great Reset is modeling a world government after the EU, with unelected leaders at the UN making the decisions for all nations. Voting is messy and gets in the way. After they ended up with Trump in 2016 and he got in the way, they won't allow voting anymore after 2024. If you want to know more about the plans for the world check out articles and books by Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum about the topic of the Great Reset. There is a book on Amazon called COVID 19, The Great Reset by Klaus Schwab that details all the changes they are trying to make.
https://smile.amazon.com/dp/2940631123/
There are also articles about the Great Reset on the World Economic Forum website.
Klaus Schwab has a book about it right here.
https://smile.amazon.com/dp/2940631123/
COVID 19, the Great Reset. It's for real. World Economic Forum holds Davos and everyone in here should know what that is about already.
When billionaires start talking about "equality" and "sustainability" you need to be very suspicious. Because I promise you they are not going to give up anything for you or the Earth.
Get and (try) to read this book.... Secrets of the Temple: How the Federal Reserve Runs the Country.
It is 800 pages of pure insomnia-busting prose, your brain will literally execute a HALT command to end the misery. I've never made it past page 49. Now all I have to do is think of the book and my brain shuts down completely. It really is that horrible.
No, think about it. A "Tiannamen Square Massacre" would work against them.
The reason they are promoting this "uprising" under the guise of warning against it is so hopefully it does happen... And they could even have covert insiders (FBI? CIA?) pushing these groups toward revolt. (It wouldn't be the first time in history.)
BUT... If it does happen, they're not going to respond to it in a way that will make them look bad. On the contrary, they'll handle it in a way that makes the protesters look bad. Just like the Capitol Building 'insurrection.'
Think about it. Did the Capitol Building "insurrection" further the cause of any Trump supporter? No. It pushed Americans more toward Biden --- just like Trump's entire presidency.
It's overdue that Trump supporters realize they were tricked and used, just like the Obama supporters and every supporter of any president before. Left, Right, Middle, Outsider -- these people don't represent our class. (As in, people who have to work for a living -- whatever that amount is.)
This time is a little different though -- the extremism of the Trump presidency was all a push to lead toward the greatest move toward globalization of all time.
This is called a conspiracy theory, and New York Times said it's a "hoax" and yet here it is: https://www.amazon.com/COVID-19-Great-Reset-Klaus-Schwab/dp/2940631123
It's all right there out in the open.
But Trump? Trump was a cartoonified villain knowingly (or unknowingly) used to lead us to the beginning of what will unfold over the next decade.
You never wondered why Trump didn't come out stronger for the things you cared about? What did he actually do for you? You were manipulated and used, just like those of us who voted for presidents before him.
To keep this simple, there's a book that summarizes why this is happening.
This is from Klaus Schwab of the WEF. They're not even hiding it.
This was published in July — I’d guess that is an awfully short time to write a book and get it published
It appears there was a newer version that came out in 2016 with 15 more chapters. 🤷♀️

Dear Reddit:
I am so sick of this type of ignorant statement being up-voted. Please read 'Basic Economics' by Thomas Sowell.
It is only 635 pages, and then we can get back to talking about these types of topics like rational actors.
Please Search for "The Great Reset" and read what is happening on the World Economic Forum website...
If you get really interested, read Klaus Schwab's books: https://www.amazon.com/COVID-19-Great-Reset-Klaus-Schwab/dp/2940631123
They appear to be re-engineering life.
Covid is a pretext. Not a cause.
