Okay but the great reset is the IMF's fault. The video they released was a PR nightmare.
Despite that, the name is accurate. The idea of the IMF was when the next business cycle (debt cycle, credit crunch, end of that decades ponzi scheme take your pick) whenever the bail outs and subsidies are need to "stimulate economic growth" they would go towards "green" companies and so they created a system called ESG (Environmental Social Governance) scores kinda like credit scores (or social credit scores) that determine which businesses get subsidies and bail outs.
It doesn't help that the IMF said "You'll own nothing and be happy" in their video either...
I agree with you 100%.
Horrible PR. Horrible name. Why are they even interfering in sovereign nations the first place or making suggestions without having real power. And a horrible slogan.
But there is no International Jewish conspiracy that want's to drain the 2 thousand bucks on your personal dollar savings account, John from West Virgia. Also the "they" of the IMF are not the same people as the "they" of your deepstate lol or the "they" that steer inflation.

I do understand how some marketing idiot though that this would be a cool slogan.
Being happy? Yes please I want to be happy. And not owning stuff is awesome - using Uber is so convenient over having a car: it's always everywhere, it doesn't loose 50% of its value in the first year, it doesn't need repair all the time, gas price. Not owning furniture and moving into a finished apartment is awesome. Renting electric scooters is awesome. Etc. Possessions are dragging you down and one day you don't own stuff but the stuff owns you. Yes please I want to own nothing and be happy.
But it feels like a slap in the face when someone from the lower class who doesn't own a lot hears it. Or someone from the middle class struggling to keep his buying power in inflation hears this from some suit wearing rich person.
Maybe this was the worst decision of the decade.

It was more than marketing. It is a plan and the scenario was painted with that story of the girl living in the city with the surrendered acceptance of total surveillance and checkpointing, wondering what came of the people outside the cities who were "lost along the way"
