   • 2023, Seamus Bruner, Controligarchs: Exposing the Billionaire Class, Their Secret Deals, and the Globalist Plot to Dominate Your Life:

     It should come as no surprise that while the peasants are expected to eat fermented fungi, lab-grown meats and maggot milkshakes, the Controligarchs — with their private chefs — have no intention of doing the same.

   • 2024 April 22, “BOOK REVIEW: Controligarchs”, in TheGeoPolity‎:

     The Controligarchs share an ambition to reshape the world, and their wealth gives them the influence to do it. […] Bruner asks if the current global financial system, which is built upon an exchange network of national currencies backed by their respective governments, seems to work well. Why would one central entity need to control currency? The reason, as with many other Controligarch schemes, is that a centralised digital currency also is put forward as the solution to many nonfinancial problems— from climate change to cyberattacks to the rise of so-called disinformation.
