QFS sect: the cult of superiority disguised as awakening

We live in strange times. Times in which those who try to think critically are accused of “being part of the system.” Times when simply not subscribing to a narrative is enough to be labeled a “gatekeeper,” “asleep,” or “ignorant.” Times when the thirst for freedom has turned into an ego show, where those who shout the loudest proclaim themselves awake, and those who doubt are crucified as servants of the Matrix.

So here we are again, with the QFS gang of fuffa-gurus. And this time it’s worth saying a few words.

In recent days, a video has been circulating in which, according to the narrative, Trump officially announced the QFS. The video turned out to be a fake, probably edited from a previous video using AI.

Of course, as was to be expected, there are those who do not believe that it is a fake video, but rather that it has been manipulated by the “powers that be,” by “deviant services,” perhaps even by the “dark artificial intelligence of the Cabal.” Obviously, the real video is another one, hidden, inaccessible to the “unawakened.”

It’s a shame that this video comes directly from the private chat of Charlie Ward’s followers, a figure that these same groups have imitated for years. Today they deny it, but only on the surface: their narratives are still his.

Ward, a former British oilman with a dream villa on a tropical island and a trophy wife by his side, claims to receive “revelations” from the secret services. He is a caricature, perfect for discrediting any attempt at real information. And that is precisely the point: to turn the search for truth into a media circus. Take complex, uncomfortable issues and inject them into a circus of unlikely characters, pseudo-spiritual delusions, and soap opera storytelling. The result? The real content is ridiculed. Any attempt at serious discussion ends up being associated with nonsense. Every critical voice is thrown into the cauldron of the “conspiracy theorists.”

This is perfect sabotage. Counter-information infiltrates and destroys from within what could really wake people up, and it works very well. Every time someone tries to talk about sovereign money, real geopolitics, digital identity, someone responds, “Oh, like those QFS people?” Ridicule elevated to a tool of discredit.

Meanwhile, the sectarian narrative continues to strengthen. Rigid, pre-packaged mechanisms in which any doubt is dismissed with the usual accusatory and disparaging phrase. It’s a classic cult pattern: those who don’t conform are infiltrators. Those who ask questions are gatekeepers. Those who reject the narrative are servants of darkness.

But if, in order not to be labeled a gatekeeper, I have to become like you in the QFS cult, then yes, I prefer to be a gatekeeper. Even the gates of common sense and truth need guardians. Someone to say, “Stop, what you’re saying is stupid.”

To the elite of the awakened who feel superior and predestined and consider everyone else ignorant and incapable, we prefer true awareness, not the kind masked by the Veil of Maya. True awakening does not need witnesses or certificates. It does not demand respect, it earns it by example. It is not measured in terms of spiritual superiority, but in terms of consistency and humility. And perhaps this is the truth that bothers people the most.

The New Age narrative of the QFS

We are talking about an epic that has been going on for decades and continues to sell illusions on a recurring basis.

It all began in the early 2000s with NESARA/GESARA, which originated—coincidentally—from a “mystical” channeling by a certain Shani Goodwin, known by various aliases, who ended up in jail several times for fraud for founding a cult with disturbing overtones, including rumors of kidnapping and abuse.

Then the baton was passed to Benjamin Fulford, who in 2010 relaunched the farce under another name: the Quantum Financial System, ready to arrive “at any moment.” It is now 2025, and we are still here hearing the same exact phrases: “It’s coming,” “We are at a turning point,” “Trump will announce it soon,” “The BRICS will save us,” “The Deep State is collapsing,” “Cryptocurrencies will solve everything.”

From Q to Trump, from BRICS to med beds: an eternal countdown that never ends. And in the meantime, those who lead these movements get rich, sell courses, collect donations, launch phantom cryptocurrencies, and transform people’s desperation into social and banking capital.

Now I wonder: how can a sane person believe this string of recycled bullshit for YEARS? And then you remember that people still believe in gurus who see the future, politicians who talk about “lasting peace,” and democracy imposed with bombs. So no, it’s no surprise. We just have to keep exposing the scam, with patience, logic, and—when necessary—a little bit of sharp irony.

Q, the drops, Trump, his administration, the military—neither in the first nor in the second term—have ever mentioned NESARA, GESARA, QFS, Med Bed, and the like. Never. All these fantasies have been superimposed by New Age nutcases, who have taken real ideas and mixed them into a cosmic stew full of unicorns, galactics, secret plans, and miraculous salvation. A real cult has been created, an escape from reality, and in its name, harmful acts are being carried out against many people, damaging the credibility of those who, on the contrary, are seriously and honestly dedicated to exploring certain issues.

Meanwhile, out here in the real world, a huge game is being played. It is a political, financial, psychological, spiritual, and social game. But to understand it, you need study, presence, courage, and responsibility, not quantum mantras, memes, and galactic cryptocurrencies.

Instead of helping people understand, they have been made dependent on a mystical expectation, pushed to ‘believe’ instead of ‘see’, to trust blindly instead of analyze, atrophying their rational and perceptive abilities, delegating their sovereignty to a new savior with uncertain traits.

The NESARA/GESARA narrative

This is one of the most complex, persistent, and fascinating phenomena of contemporary mystical-financial conspiracy theory. Its real origin is very different from the mythology built around it. Here is a clear, accurate, and documented overview of the birth of the NESARA narrative.

What is it really? NESARA stands for National Economic Security and Reformation Act. It is a bill that was never passed by the U.S. Congress, attributed to Harvey Francis Barnard, an American engineer and economic consultant who wrote the book Draining the Swamp: Monetary and Fiscal Policy Reform, in which he proposed: the abolition of compound interest on bank debts, a return to a monetary system based on gold and silver, and reform of the tax system (abolition of the IRS and income tax).

Barnard sent the proposal to Congress in 1999, but it was never discussed or voted on. He then published everything online at nesara.org, where he openly stated that it had never been enacted.

The transformation took place in the early 2000s, when a figure known as “Dove of Oneness” (Shaini Candace Goodwin, a former New Age activist) took the name NESARA and reinterpreted it as a law that had already been secretly passed, saying that it had been covered up by the government and central banks and adding mystical-spiritual elements, talking about secret alliances in the military, interventions by galactic beings, global debt reset, and planetary abundance.

According to “Dove” and his followers, NESARA was supposed to be announced on September 11, 2001… but the attack on the Twin Towers was orchestrated to prevent it. From there, the narrative became an apocalyptic financial religion in constant anticipation of the “revelation.”

At some point, there is a shift from NESARA to GESARA, which stands for Global Economic Security and Reformation Act. Literally a mythological expansion of NESARA on a global scale. It has never existed in any official document. It promises, in order: cancellation of everyone’s debts, redistribution of stolen wealth, mass arrests of the “bad guys” (the elite), a return to the gold standard, and a kind of world peace imposed by secret military forces allied with “Ascended Masters” and “Galactic Federations.”

Some common and redundant features of the narrative are spiritual technocracy, which mixes New Age spirituality and technology, millenarian conspiracy theories of a messianic expectation of an event that will reset everything, and a reversal of reality, where everything that happens is “part of the plan.”

Final recap

Let’s take a quick look at the history of a narrative recycled from scams, cults, and New Age illusions.

Year 2000 – The Dawn of the Myth: NESARA/GESARA. Mystical ‘channeling’ by Shani Goodwin (aka ‘Dove of Oneness’), repeatedly arrested for fraud. She founds a cult: accusations of mind control, kidnapping, and forced isolation. The promise is as follows: ‘Imminent financial revolution for all humanity’.

Year 2010 – The Evolution: Fulford and the QFS. Benjamin Fulford relaunches the myth with a new label: Quantum Financial System. Conspiracy narratives are added, along with benevolent intergalactic entities, all to the rhythm of a new slogan: “It’s coming… for real, this time.”

2016–2020 – The Q/Trump Era. QAnon and the messianic figure of Trump enter the scene. The narrative is now that of a sort of endless cycle: “Trump will launch the QFS,” along with constant announcements: “next week,” “by the end of the month,” “after the elections.”

Years 2021–2025 – The eternal loop. Telegram, Reddit, and X channels grow with hundreds of thousands of followers, used as excellent platforms for selling packages, donations, crypto-mirages, and courses on NESARA-QFS. Again, every year, the same phrase: “We are very close.” It is a litany of repeated patterns: there is an elite of “awakened” people, while everyone else is “asleep.” In fact, there is no concrete evidence of this redeeming QFS, only promises to believe in with an act of faith. Anyone who does not believe is a gatekeeper, an enemy, a fake; those who reason and criticize are then seen as “not yet spiritually ready.” Same dynamics, same pattern.

Year 2025 – And the QFS? “It’s coming,” of course! Trust the plan!
