re: Who here believes in some type of coronavirus conspiracy theory?

I think it's dismissive to call what I believe a "conspiracy theory."

I do believe that the reaction to Coronovirus among some people has been one of barely-concealed glee. These people fall into several categories.

Some of them are just environmentalists who like the decline in frivolous travel- I've even detected that in Michael Savage lately.

Hell, even simple failures who long for the rest of us to get our come-uppances have latched onto the "pandemic" issue. The MADD crowd, the menopausal who are thoroughly convinced the rest of us are having way too much fun, probably contains some examples.

Other people in this category are the same people who were convinced that Y2K would show us all, that 2008 would bring hyperinflation, and so on. They want all of us to fail because they damned sure will fail regardless.

Those of us who have are even somewhat at home in the universe have mostly been rolling our eyes at the "pandemic." It's been a boon for the losers of the world, a little piece of wallpaper over the holes in their lives.
