Matt: remember those early outbreak videos from China where people were passing out on the street? Obviously staged: but considering China was trying to downplay the outbreak: why were they also doing that kind of propaganda? Or were those videos initially intended to scare their own population and were leaked to the West? I've always wondered about those early clips as if it was a damn nerve gas attack.
That's a very good question, Dalnet.
I haven't heard of a specific reason for why that is - but your guess may be correct; that China wanted to scare their own population, but the footage got out.
I was also thinking that it's possible that China wanted to use the pandemic to cripple the Western economy, and had it all planned out thoroughly from the start.
I feel like none of these questions will be addressed in the mainstream.
