Nation states must create their own sustainability standards and policies to counter the hegemonic control of global financial institutions over corporate decision-making through ESG frameworks.
Abstract
The content discusses how global financial institutions are using sustainability goals, ESG reporting, and greenhouse gas (GHG) policies to exert control over corporations and shape market outcomes to benefit themselves. The author argues that this is a new form of hegemonic power, akin to the tyranny of past kingdoms, where financial oligarchs dictate the "pie" that corporations can share rather than allowing free market competition.
The author suggests that nation states need to take action by creating their own sustainability standards and policies, rather than adhering to the demands of global financial institutions. This would allow them to cultivate their own markets and promote open-source solutions, rather than being beholden to the agendas of these hegemonic powers.
The content highlights the need for a coalition of like-minded nation states to counter the influence of financial oligarchs and preserve true diversity and individualism, which the author argues is being eroded by the current global corporate hegemony. The author emphasizes that sustainability and environmentalism are important, but the current system is exploiting these causes for the benefit of a few powerful entities at the expense of the broader population.
Quotes
"Sustainability is not bad thing, problems lies within the corporate structures predetermined sharing. Technology that would be implemented based on these policies are created long before the policies are set in place. This causes unjust market. No different than the times of the kingdoms."
"Corporates with their financial policy creators are the new kings that leave no to little space to free men."
"Diversity is true diversity when people are interconnected and still live their cultural traditions within their states. Within the global indoctrination, all these lines are blurring out. Humanity is turning into factory generated dolls that think the same, work the same."
