At the 4th Annual Common Sense Fair, John Klyczek gave a speech titled "Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt vs. The School World Order: Against Corporate-Fascist School Choice and Ed-Technocracy." In this presentation, Klyczek commemorates the life work of Iserbyt, bringing it up to date with his current research on how "school choice" financial technologies (fin-tech) are being merged with education technologies (ed-tech) in order to data-mine students for predictive social credit analytics in the planned economy of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR). Historicizing how Iserbyt blew the whistle on Project BEST (Basic Education Skills through Technology), which paved the way for the public-private ed-tech of the 4IR, Klyczek expounds how the Koch-backed State Policy Network (SPN) and the PayPal Mafia are steering the Trump administration to finish what Project BEST started by ushering in the fin-tech/ed-tech cybernetics necessary for social credit data-mining in the 4IR. In particular, Klyczek relays how SPN think tanks behind Project 2025 have been pushing for "school choice" funds to be distributed through digital wallet corporations, some of which have been bankrolled by the venture capital firms of PayPal Mafia dons behind the Trump administration. Klyczek also breaks down how Trump's PayPal Presidency is accelerating AI while greenlighting the use of stablecoin crypto dollars in order to program, track, and trace "school choice" tokens with social credit algorithms extrapolated from AI feedback loops between fin-tech inputs and ed-tech outcomes.
