Coronavirus - A pale horse,4 men and ....beer

[Trader Pat]

Well, funny you should say that... I've just watched a pretty long youtube video, I'll post the link & I'll leave it to whoever watches to make their own minds up. This is right on the edge of what I've seen & I neither agree or disagree with what this guy says but this is taking the virus to a whole other level https://youtu.be/28eV6tcboUc

Don't make me watch all of it! Give me a gist

I would watch it but I'm watching Ricky Gervais compilations on youtube

No way, I would ruin it for you.

I've skipped through it and it wouldn't be fair to give an opinion unless I watched all 4 parts but it I'll definitely bookmark it for another day.

It reminds me a little of one of the "best" of these kinds of youtube movies I saw which was Loose Change 2 (link below) which was basically a conspiracy theory about 9/11. Its very slick and can suck you in, even has seemingly credible scientists disagreeing with the official 9/11 commission report and the whole premise of the movie is that the 9/11 attacks were a false flag operation conducted by the US government. It caught my attention because it was the first place I saw a mention of Operation Northwoods (a 1962 false flag operation proposed by the CIA which included hijacking airplanes and blaming it on Cubans as justification to invade Cuba). It's been widely debunked but it was a good watch and entertaining, ultimately though you need to keep your 'common sense' hat on when watching this kind of thing.

Innuendo and coincidence can be made to seem credible given the right circumstances and there's obviously a market for this kind of thing even in the mainstream. Discovery and Nat Geo used to be good channels but now they've been taken over by documentaries that only give one side of a story to fit a narrative. Discovery Science used to air shows about proper science but now is flooded with shows about aliens!

Unfortunately it looks like Covid-19 will add to this kind of genre

Totally agree with you & I'll watch your link tomorrow, I'm sure I'll enjoy it... I do love a bit of conspiracy, I don't buy into these things but I do enjoy it.

Yeah me too, like I said they can be really entertaining in some cases

Just hearing a survivor of the Spanish flu in 1919 has just become a victim to Covid-19 aged 108

It's basically a conspiracy theory... if you're not into that kind of thing then it's not worth your time, I dont tend to believe these things but i find them fascinating, just the depth these people go to in order to create these theories is astounding imo.

Imagine if that person had of survived both, that would have been remarkable.

There is hope for the elderly, a 98-year-old survived.

Faith healing is practically free healthcare for a lot of Americans. And yet the guy is almost a billionare.

Faith healing is practically free healthcare for a lot of Americans.

Speaking of "faith" healing, how about "faith killing" I saw an Italian nurse on TV saying you can't catch it in a church because it's a holy place.
And she was trying to get into a packed church at the time. It's impossible to know where to start with that one, why isn't she in an assylum? Or arrested, and why are these places allowed to be open anyway? If that's what an Italian lockdown is then they haven't finished making boxes just yet.

The Italians are a bit slow. During WW2 their tanks had 1 forward gear and 3 reverse gears.....
