Fiction:
I made a reference a while back to Tom Clancy’s “Rainbow Six”. This a novel in which the rich, elite of the world hatch a plan to decimate the planet of it’s inhabitants whilst they hide out a few years in a protective bunker as nature takes it’s unnatural course, emging from the bunker into a peopleless planet, sterilized of the unworthy humans.
They start by taking a horrible and mostly fatal disease; Ebola. Because Ebola does not live long outside of the human host, these billionaires enlist a lab to engineer the virus to live not only very long on surfaces and in the environment, they mutate the virus to have at least a two week incubation period, thus letting the infected and contagious reach many more hosts before revealing itself.
The absolutely genius way to proliferate this virus worldwide is to put the active virus in the misting/cooling systems in the stadiums hosting the Summer Olympics in Sidney, Australia. People will actively walk through these clouds of cool mist, innoculating themselves thereby spreading around their homes for weeks after their return. Nearly every country has participants and fans that will attend these events.
This book was release in 1998.
Conspiracy? Fiction?
Imagine a country develops in it’s labs, with the funding and support of billionaires, a virus that normally is not zoonotic, but through so called “gain of funtion”, now relabeled 3P or something like that, a virus that is not necessarily fatal but might cause deaths in many weaker or potentially genetically suceptable persons. The point of the release of this virus is not to kill everyone but to kill just enough to see how the world responds. In this case, they might be delighted to see not only the world frozen in fear but populations at each other’s throats, fueled by an incessant cacophony of media stimuli. Those who suspect something isn’t right with the narrative are not simply ignored in their attempts to bring up questions, but are actively persecuted for even bringing up these questions, becoming pariahs, kooks and “conspiracy theorists”.
Now that the initial rollout of a virus and it’s aftermath has been not only been gauged but found to be far more successful than ever dreamed of, two years later, you have the world coming to your country, the absolute epicenter of the first viral release. People are coming to huddle up inside spaces, sharing warmth and bodily fluids with a false sense of security wearing their favorite team’s cloth masks. Being cold, viruses live or go into a state of suspended animation, not dying upon release into the environment. Not that this really mattter because this virus, the second one and the one actually planned all along, is very persistent and much more communicable than the first.
The best part? Because of the test run in which we saw precautions fall by the wayside as people started relaxing because “they got to have them sports” with footbal, soccer etc., they know everyone will show up to the Winter Olympics in Beijing.
It’s like everyone collectively became Dory from “Finding Nemo” and don’t remember where they were and what the world has gone through the last two years.
Except those not attending the Olympics. For the majority of the world, its still masks, lockdowns and the sort.
Look! A purple squirrel:
Them Canadian truckers and the freedom! One the Kardassians is having another baby by another random dude. Worlde game is taking the world by storm!
Nothing to see here.
