Building the Beast system: the metastasis of AI data centres
NEIL MCCRAE
A few miles west of Heathrow Airport, in the dismal town of Slough, is a major development that few ordinary people know about. What may seem to be more of the same in an area of factories and warehouses is actually the largest data centre in Europe. Thirty-two data companies operate on this vast site. This featured on a Sky News report two years ago, which described data centres as ’critical infrastructure’. But for whose benefit?
Conspiracy theorists tend to focus on human agency, regarding the Great Reset as a drive towards enslavement of the masses by a predatory elite. Some however, go further. They see dystopian forces creating a new world order not for worldly motives of greed or psychopathic authoritarianism, but the work of Satan.
When King Charles the Third delivered his speech in the Houses of Parliament last week, he announced the introduction of digital identity for all Britons. Thus government policy continues to fulfil the technocratic vision of the World Economic Forum. The monarch was merely doing his ceremonial duty by reading a speech written by government ministers and senior civil servants, but the two most prominent announcements on digital identity and Net Zero are in tune with his thinking.
A keen proponent of the Great Reset (as he publicly stated during the Covid-19 debacle), Charles has had a long acquaintance with technocrats such as Klaus Schwab, until recently leader of the WEF. Soon after he was enthroned, Charles had a portrait commissioned, in which he appears in a red blur, merely his head and sausage-fingered hands showing. Then somebody put two copies of this bizarre painting together, and the figure of Baphomet appears (it could be coincidence, like the messages heard when playing certain rock records backwards, but I’m too cynical now).
Digital identity could be interpreted as the mark of the Beast in the Book of Revelation. Certainly it is crucial to the creation of a totalitarian digital matrix, whereby all human activity and consumption will be not only monitored but directly controlled. Despite considerable public opposition to digital identity, its imposition is inevitable: if sold on safety and convenience, it will gain popular support (for example, to identify illegal immigrants or prevent voting fraud).
Most people are asleep to the reality that every time that they pay at a ‘self-service’ supermarket till with a card or mobile phone they are building their own prison. They cannot understand that when cash is removed all of their purchases will be known, and that money will be programmable. A digital currency will enable rationing and application of a social credit system, as already operating in China.
Covid-19 was not a pandemic but a manufactured crisis, getting people to accept draconian restrictions that would normally have been unconscionable. The real purpose of Covid-19 was digital identity, primed by PCR testing and more fully enacted by vaccine passports. The supposed vaccine was not to inoculate against a disease, but to introduce a form of digital identity on a global scale (as anyone who flew abroad in 2021 experienced). The next pandemic, as Bill Gates indicated, will be different. Lockdown will be selective, applying only to people who do not follow ‘public health’ mandates, as revealed by digital records.
Last week Donald Trump visited China, his entourage comprising not senators and his appointed secretaries of state but Big Tech magnates including Elon Musk and Apple CEO Tim Cook, as well as Larry Fink of BlackRock (and now WEF chairman). For conspiracy theorists, China is not an arch-rival of the USA but a laboratory for technocracy, using communism to control its masses. China’s advanced digital regime is a means of overwhelming behavioural enforcement.
The Chinese, like most Westerners, rely on their mobile phones to go anywhere or buy anything, but this will change, and sooner than most people think. Trump’s administration is working with Pekka Lundmark, CEO of Nokia (remember that?) to expand digital connectivity. Lundmark, in a recent interview, said that when 6G arrives (by 2030) smartphones will be replaced by implanted microchips. Human bodies will be used as a natural energy source: people will be walking batteries, as predicted by the futuristic movie The Matrix. Meanwhile artificial intelligence increasingly replaces human enterprise.
All of this technology will be linked, forming a global grid. And this will need massive processing capacity, hence the rapid growth of data centres. The masses, mostly apathetic, will be told that this is for their benefit (e,g, traffic management and crime prevention). The hassle of using passwords and navigating different services with information in multiple places will be relieved by an all-in-one interface. And this will not be on a handheld device but – if Musk and the transhumanists like Yuval Noah Harari get their way –a brain implant.
Data centres are causing much concern to American citizens (unlike in Britain, where apart from the aforementioned Sky News report, little is mentioned). Over four thousand of them have been built in the USA by companies such as Meta and Google, with many more planned. China is a long way behind, and the UK with over 500 data centres is currently second.
Forty-nine thousand residents at Lake Tahoe are losing their energy supplier, with no prospect of replacement, as a data centre will use all of the capacity, and it is too costly to lay power cables from California. People are being forced out of their homes. Another data centre in Georgia has caused water restrictions for the local community, after plundering thirty million gallons from reservoirs. Other people living nearby these facilities complain of brown water coming out of the tap, and very low pressure. Household bills are doubling.
A loud and constant hum is heard for miles around these enormous structures. A data centre near Salt Lake City in Utah extends to 62 acres, the size of twenyy thousand football pitches. Dan Dicks, reporting on the approval of three large data centres in British Columbia, depicted the scale of development by showing how much of Vancouver they would cover if built there.
An opinion poll showed that seven-in-ten Americans would object to a data centre being built in their neighbourhood. People power, however, has been curtailed by Trump’s administration. The National Policy Framework for Artificial Intelligence (2025) is an accelerationist missive that overrides constitutional rights to prevent opposition to AI infrastructure. Portraying an existential race between the USA and China, the document asserts: ‘to win, United States AI companies must be free to innovate without cumbersome regulation’ (that is, the regulatory protection for citizens against unwanted and destructive development, while the companies are really franchise of DARPA and the security services).
The metastasis of data centres across the land is difficult to explain in terms of everyday use of AI. All that computing power is not needed for hospital appointment booking or students cheating with essays. Mike Adams, himself an AI developer, has an intriguing theory for the tremendous growth of data centres. He believes that to develop a higher plane of intelligence, far beyond human potential, AI will be applied to one or more simulated worlds, whereby thousands of years will be run in a condensed time period, for the purpose of totalised learning.

The system will comprise AI control and a communication network that includes not only transmission masts but also chips in bodies acting as antennae. Everyone will be under AI discipline (with a ‘kill switch’). In this transhumanist world, AI governs through a consciousness that rejects God and goodliness for Satanic instrumentalism. Adams wonders whether CERN in Switzerland is really an attempt to summon demons. Such speculation was in the past limited to the imagination of science fiction writers, but now much of the dystopia of Brave New World, They Live and The Matrix is coming true.
Far-fetched Adams’ prediction may seem, but there are none so blind as will not see the hard reality that is already upon us. Sometimes when doing outreach for the Light newspaper, I meet a heckler who argues that AI, Net Zero and digital identity are all necessary for human survival and progress. Such people are too stupid to see the hypocrisy of the powers-that-be, who insist on us reducing our consumption while data centres are gobbling water and electricity (in Ireland, a third of national energy consumption will go to data centres). These hives of bits and bytes need power not just for processing but for cooling too: water shortages are a more likely killer than war, pestilence or flocks of locusts.
Yuval Noah Harari described human beings as ‘hackable animals’, for whom free will is an obsolete notion. Editing of unique genetic codes will transform the individual from child of God to a slave of Satan. AI data centres are the physical manifestation of the Beast system.
