The 2010 Rockefeller Report shows eerie signs of how governments around the world would strengthen government controls over populations through weakening individual rights and freedoms. That has now happed in the handling of the covid pandemic around the world. Maybe it is just a coincidence.
What is 'Operation Lockstep'?
While "The Rockefeller Playbook" does not exist, the planning report released by the Rockefeller Foundation in 2010, "Scenarios for the Future of Technology and International Development," includes a section called "Lock Step."
The report describes a series of scenarios — including a pandemic — in which technology could be used to help to restore humanity.
"The Rockefeller Foundation believes that in order to understand the many ways in which technology will impact international development in the future, we must first broaden and deepen our individual and collective understanding of the range of possibilities. This report, and the project upon which it is based, is one attempt to do that," reads an excerpt from the report.
The "Lock Step" section outlines a scenario of authoritarian control in the wake of a hypothetical novel influenza pandemic similar to COVID-19.
"Lock Step" envisions "a world of tighter top-down government control and more authoritarian leadership, with limited innovation and growing citizen pushback," according to the report. In this world, 20% of the global population was infected with the novel virus and 8 million people were killed in seven months.
Fact check: 'Rockefeller Playbook' and 'Operation Lockstep' are hoaxes
