Murder and terrorism seldom make sense.



Well, society's treating it like it's a disease that will kill everybody. Also if the Chinese government is deliberately behind this, the scary thing is that they might be disappointed that their wonderful work of art is killing off mostly old people, and so might end up inventing an even deadlier disease in the future to kill of almost everybody. But hopefully that isn't true.

Thank you everyone for reading and for replying. I just can't believe, as an excuse, they'll blame the global economy downfall on it now till and will use this, as an excuse to keep even more tabs on us. With this whole taking details, track and trace that is being implemented, if you visit certain places and pubs. What will be next!

Be prepared for a second wave of this too....

Really?
They often make considerable sense if one is able to ignore the moral concerns. I guess insisting it rarely makes sense is a good way to justify why the case you're presenting makes no sense and lacks anything that might be said to substantiate the claims.

To answer your questions: no. I care very deeply about this whole tragedy, the mis-management of it by our government is unconscionable to me, and I do think it's important to learn as much as we can about this, for a myriad of important reasons. I'm a responsible and mindful person taking precautions and protocols seriously. I think you and I share most of the same concerns.

But thousands of anonymous amateurs wondering aloud in public forums if this bizarre scheme or that one holds any water is doing no good. All this "gossip" mutates, at cyber-speed, into rumors that incite fear, anger, paranoia, resentment, hatred, division, and confusion. Those with ulterior motives of all kinds take advantage, but our society as a whole suffers, perhaps for a long time. Ignorance and misinformation can be deadly, as we've seen.

I think it's better to take action; donate or volunteer if you can. Put pressure on those in power to help those in greatest need, and consider the needs of as many people as possible! Call for the recruitment and support of genuine scientific professionals of the highest caliber instead of the hacks many of our so-called leaders favor. Encourage them to do the actual investigations--but consider how much work, time, and money it will take, and how likely we are to get the answers we seek. There are some things we will never know, no matter how unfair or infuriating that may be.

It is important to remember that there is lots of dubious opinion being put around.

"Plausible" is not the same as "Proved"

The art of lying revolves around making it seem plausible.

The lie can then be re-inforced by being repetition until it lodges in the mind without any checks but somehow seems real.

Best approach is to get informed from trustworthy sources - Virologists, doctors, nurses, mathematicians and the like.

I have found a good trustworthy source : microbe.tv
www.microbe.tv
The sources are people from the above categories of competent people

2020 is the year of the rat in Chinese.
A deadly plague has emerged from China and have affected the world in 2020.
Rats brought the plague to many places during the plague era.

Coincidence?



Ps. For those that struggle to read between the lines, rats did not cause COVID.

superstition really and nothing else

given that this illnes crossed intohumans most likely from bats

and spread around the world through humans doing all the long distance travelling which we can do in this age

I was born in the Year of the Rat (early 1960-early 1961).

Nothing really untoward on a massive scale happened then.

Mother nature is far more dangerous than humans.

Moved from Random to PPR.

Fnord is correct.
Using one's intellect to speculate is never a good thing.
A nasty habit. <light hearted sarcasm>
