I responded to a tweet from Mark Changizi recently (screenshot because I’m sure they’ll erase my account - and Mark’s too - soon): As you can see, Ben replied, which set off a brief conversation. I think the ‘I’ll never understand that’ comment may have been a challenge to my subconscious because I spent half the night awake, tossing and turning, with my brain refusing to shut down and I’ve come up with an explanation of sorts for what are the most puzzling and deeply disturbing series of events I have ever experienced in my entire life; namely the last two years of lockdowns and Covid hysteria. I’m sure it’s not original and that many people have come up with similar explanations, but it’s original to me and represents to me a simple theory based upon my own personal observations which adequately explains the facts as I experienced them.
I think that, to a large extent, people really want to be part of a world-wide effort to save humanity. They don't want a world war but just some huge thing of which to be a part. They can then earn the "I saved humanity merit badge" and then tell their grandkids:
"You should have seen it! Bodies piled 10 feet high lining every street! Why I told your grandma, 'this is it! we gotta do our part!" and we put on masks, social distanced and took whatever medicine the government ordered! And that's why I'm here to tell you about that today Jonny and Suzie! Your great uncle Jeff... well... god rest his soul was a vax denier and he didn't make it. He'll have to make his piece with god for all the people he killed through his selfish actions and all the misinformation he spread!"
Wow, that was me. Masks, etc. in February and stocking up. April 1, this is baloney. Knew immediately after FAuci pushed trump aside to poo poo HCQ (I trust Raoult Didier more than any other doctor and he foudn the cure in late Feb in Marseilles.) So I am a bit an early re-actor, but a bit too not a good herd person for any length of time.
