World Economic Forum's Official Partners Include Google, Pfizer, Procter & Gamble—But Why Are These Companies Involved In "The Most Pressing World Issues"?

The World Economic Forum is an international organization that has raised the eyebrows of concerned citizens across the globe for the last several years. A TikToker highlighted the companies that the WEF partners with, and it begs the question: Why are corporations like Procter & Gamble involved in important decision-making about the future of our world?

The World Economic Forum has released some eyebrow-raising content over the last few years. At the recent G20 Summit in Bali, founder and chairman Klaus Schwab gave a speech about the WEF's plans for a "deep systemic and structural restructuring of our world." The WEF has openly promoted the Great Reset during the coronavirus pandemic, which includes a "new form of capitalism" that "puts people and planet first." The organization has encouraged people to eat bugs, give up their private property, and allow a "recalibration" of free speech. A TikToker pointed out that the deeper you look into this organization, the more you realize there is some shady stuff going on behind the scenes.

World Economic Forum's Official Partners Include Google, Pfizer, Procter & Gamble—but Why Are These Companies Involved in "the Most Pressing World Issues"?

TikToker @sophia033333 posted a 2-part series about the WEF and its partnership program. She points to the WEF website, which has a section called Our Partners. "Our Partners engage in Forum Platforms to shape the future, accessing networks and experts to ensure strategic decision-making on the most pressing world issues," the site says. Underneath the description are some articles, including the latest: "Business leaders and cyber experts can defeat online threats—but only if they work together." Sounds reasonable enough at face value. But when you take a look at the list of WEF Partners, you can't help but ask why all these corporations are involved with shaping the future of the globe.

Sophia lists some of the companies that are listed as Partners on the WEF website: Procter & Gamble, Pfizer, Coca-Cola, Gucci, Pepsi Co, Visa, Walmart, Heineken, NYT, Ralph Lauren, Nestle, Shein, Google, and more.

"Why is Shein, Coca-Cola, Pepsi Co, Gucci, Ralph Lauren, Nestle—why are those included in the decision-making on the most pressing world issues?" she asks.

Procter & Gamble is a money-hungry corporation that helped a scientist in the 1970s convince the American Heart Association that saturated fat causes heart disease, not seed oils or sugar. This was right around the same time when Procter & Gamble started selling copious amounts of vegetable oil and margarine. There have been many times when we see corporations like Procter & Gamble intentionally present false information to Americans in order to make more money. Why on earth are these corporations helping the WEF shape the world and strategize on "the most pressing world issues?"

She points out that the website also says, "WEF's membership is a cross-section of the global elite from the private and public sectors and includes some of the most prominent CEOs, diplomats, celebrities, media personalities, government officials, religious leaders, and union representatives around the world."

But who pays for this organization's famous annual meeting in Davos? Who is funding this organization and bringing together all these "prominent" people and figures from all over the world?

The only thing Sophia could find is that WEF funding is provided by some of the "world's most significant business entities," and that phrase has a hyperlink. But when you click on it, it doesn't go anywhere, and it says the link doesn't work. Sophia says whenever you try to find the specific people who are part of WEF, you just can't find anything. It's a dead end.

"Why don't we know who the members are or who's involved?" she wonders.

It's frightening that the WEF holds so much power and is rubbing shoulders with some of the most powerful corporations in the world. At what point will people realize that this organization has no business restructuring our world, especially considering the fact that none of these WEF leaders were elected by the people?
