There is a link between drug gangs and people smuggling that uses NGO's to pressure governments into letting these people in.
Summary: Follow the money.
It's from StrategyPage, so not political.
n Mexico, the illegals were, until the last few years, almost all Mexicans and others from Latin American nations. But now over a third of the illegals coming across the Mexican border are from much farther away and pay large fees to international criminal syndicates to travel long distances to reach Mexico and then across the border into the United States. Even before this Mexico had found itself unable to control the drug cartels that now are the real power on the Mexican side of the U.S. border. Anyone who wants to move illegal migrants across that border must pay the cartels for safe passage. The cartels can also arrange for easy entry into Mexico via airports or ship by bribing border and customs officials. The Mexican cartels made over $100 million a year from the fees the illegal migrants (via the groups moving them) pay to get across the border, and that does not include the lucrative fees for helping get international illegals into Mexico. The cartels make far more moving drugs but the people smuggling fees are another income source and confirm which cartel controls which segment of the border.
I have sympathy for those seeking a better life, but the dirty little secret is that there is a larger agenda behind this: Cheap labor for rich companies and cheap nannies/maids for Karens...

The conspiracy pages point out that the climate change agenda is directed from above (and the anti climate change propaganda is also directed from above).
CoreyDiggs has a long essay connecting the dots.
As a driving force placing pressure on public and private sectors to comply, the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) plays a key role in funneling trillions from the global economy while influencing government policies and propping up the climate hoax narrative. While IRENA is pivotal in the “no-regrets” initiative to transform the global economy, the international organization enjoys immunities and privileges which allow them to operate without transparency or accountability.
True or not true?
here is IRENA film on their policies.
Sounds lovely... but what does it mean at the grassroots level?
these NGOs pushing "Global warming" are funded by someone, and when I read that they are pushing Biden to give money to poor countries that suffer from global warming, all I wonder is: how much of this money will end up being stolen by rich politicians/businessmen and put into their Swiss/Malaysian etc. bank accounts?
This 2014 article from tranparancy org discusses the problem, but I am wondering why I can't find a newer updated article.
Transpanrancy on the 25 corruption scandals (2019 article). Now worse, with Covid destructing the world economy.
and if you really want to delve into the cloudcuckooland behind conspiracy theories, just do a google about how Covid was supposedly used by the powers that run the world to push the Great Reset.

The UN was told to bugger off when one of their organizations pressured the Philippines to push gay rights.
Gays are accepted here, and the Philippines is touted on gay sites as a place that is gay friendly to visit. Sex tourism is big here, for both lovely ladies and good looking guys.
Two problems with sex tourism: it's connections with drugs, and the exploitation of street kids.
but priorities you know: gay rights is the priority, not putting in place policies that would help people find jobs.
what would really help the ordinary folk here in the Philippines would be cheap energy: we need cheap diesel and fertilizer (we use organic, but non organic fertilizer is from fossil fuel) to grow rice, and if the price of rice goes up, poor people will not be able to afford food.
Usually the Philippines has to import rice (one of Marcos' promisese was to help the agriculture sector, which is changing as small farms are mechanizing and the kids of small farmers don't want to stay on the farm to live in poverty).
Today's headline is that the price of LPG is up. Why is this important? Because the poor use LPG for cooking. There is an alternative: Wood. But this is more polluting: I have been providing the maid with money to use LPG for years because her son had recurrant asthma/bronchitis from using wood to cook.
And of course, using wood for cooking in rural areas is a major cause of deforestation.
Marcos says he plans to explore our waters in the West Philippine sea to try to get petroleum resources for the locals. China has been stopping this for years.
This is one reason that Marcos might allow the US to use Philippine bases to train, and to pre position supplies just in case.
The Philippines has a love/hate relationship with the USA: they don't want to get in the middle of a war with China, but they also know that if Taiwan falls, Luzon is next. And the Chinese are hated here (which complicates things since Chinoy families run the economy and China is a major investor here).
Of course, one of the complications of the war in the Ukraine is that they are using up the supplies of sophisticated weapons, meaning that these are not being sent to Taiwan to defend themselves.
But the terraine and logistical problems of invading Taiwan gets even more complicated if the country decides to defend themselves like the Ukraine.
I remember when the western powers estimated Russia would win in two weeks, and only Elon Musk stepped in quickly to help with Starlink communications during those days.
and one lesson being learned from the Ukraine: That drones (including cheap civilian drones) are part of the picture.
China has plans to use drone swarms, but Taiwan has their own drones they plan to use too. BBC article on drone warfare.
