Think
of a propaganda story as a Vegas casino. The casino wants you there
gambling at the tables, losing your money. But that central premise
isn't enough. They have to add features. The endless buffets. The
shows. The pools. The art exhibits. The dolphins. The illuminated
fountains. The story has to keep sprouting new dimensions and
variations. In other to keep people gambling.
In recent articles, I've presented compelling reasons to reject the notion that a new COVID virus exists.
Of
course, many people are determined to save the virus-story, so they
embellish it. They add features based on no evidence. They fantasize.
Here is a low-level attempt to save the virus:
"SARS-CoV-2
isn't, all by itself, very dangerous. But the elderly are
extraordinarily SUSCEPTIBLE to it." As if, somehow, the virus
calculates the numerical age of its potential victims. "This man is
over 65. I'll swoop down on him."
Now we come to more strenuous
efforts. "You see, 5G technology has a unique ability. It ACTIVATES
the otherwise dormant virus and transforms it into a killer. The virus
was on an extended fast. But now, it must munch food all day and all
night, and its food is human cells..."
"The virus doesn't defeat
the immune system. It has an opposite effect. It forces the immune
system to go into overdrive, and this produces a cascade of misdirected
attacks against organs of the body..."
"The virus is a
shapeshifter. It not only mutates rapidly, as all viruses do, it adopts
disguises and thereby evades detection by antibodies..."
"The
immune system can only counteract the virus temporarily. It comes
back. You could test negative one day and positive the next day..."
"There
are actually three strains of the virus. The first two are relatively
minor threats. But the third is the real danger..."
Save the virus. Save THE STORY ABOUT THE VIRUS. Keep it going. Don't let it slip away.
Inside
the Church of the Virus, the LAB is the holy of holies. That's where
the deepest ceremonies are conducted. The LAB must be protected. Since
no one ever proved the virus actually exists, the LAB has potential
problems.
So keep spinning out those stories about SARS-CoV-2 and
keep roping in the audience. Make each story sound credible. People
out in the world will help. They'll make up their own variations of the
tale. They can't let go.
If you must, resort to older versions: "God has brought down the virus on us, as punishment for drifting away from His Word..."
"In the bowels of Hell, Satan devised the coronavirus and carried it up to Earth, to attack us..."
Then
there is this: "SCIENCE says we have to fear the virus and stay on
lockdown until the vaccine arrives." Science is defined as 'the
opposite of anything Trump thinks'." That's the result of $300,000 and a
Masters degree in something or other, from an elite university.
When
you punch a hole in one of these bloated and enhanced virus-stories,
someone will probably reply, "But it's possible. It's possible that the
microwave in your kitchen alerts SARS-CoV-2 that it's time to attack
your liver..."
Yes, and in the same way it's possible your entire
blood supply is actually made up of trillions of tiny torpedoes, and it
just so happens that the unique timbre of Trump's voice arms these
torpedoes and launches them against your lung tissue.
But that
doesn't mean you can take this hypothesis to the bank and cash it.
Although it might mean you can land a job at the World Health
Organization.
In days of old, a tyrant who ruled his people with
an iron fist would consult his high priests when it was time to float a
story that would advance his power and control.
"Okay, boys, what have you got for me?"
The
highest priest would say, "Well, Your Greatness, there are traitors
among us. That story plays well. Then there is, we are under threat
from an outside enemy. Always rallies the troops..."
The priests and the rulers would come up with their best effort.
In
modern times, the people who need to sell stories hire large agencies
to promote their narratives. Or the agencies are on permanent
retainers, like the CDC, who hype vaccine myths to the public, on behalf
of the federal government and pharmaceutical companies.
"Okay, boys, what have you got?"
"How about this? The virus is very complex. We're still learning about it. It attacks the body in several different ways."
"Can you say it attacks the brain?"
"Why not? How about: the virus causes depression. It may be responsible for several types of mental disorders."
"Sounds
good. Give it a whirl. Come up with a few studies. And while we're
at it, we need a new story line: anti-vaxxers are creating widespread
fear of vaccination and this could cause 'good people' to experience
psychological trauma when they actually receive the shot. The trauma
could bring on physical collapse. It's a little tricky, but try to sell
it...we're going to need to explain a slew of very nasty adverse
effects when the COVID vaccine hits the market."
Night and day,
every day, stories are sold and bought. The addiction to story is solid
and deep. Discernment on the part of the buyer has never been known
for its keenness.
Recently, a reader wrote to assure me the
SARS-CoV-2 virus is real. Her proof? A small group of doctors she
admires know it's real. Talk about buying story.
Doctors? Are
you kidding? 99.99999 percent of doctors in the world are absolutely
clueless about how a new virus should be proved to exist.
Trusting doctors on that score is trusting a parrot who's been trained to say, "Polly want a virus." |
