I’m pretty sure Y2K was a non issue due to 2 years of computer replacements/software upgrades leading up

This one has actually been tracked back to the elimination of the HFC’s

The WHO, CDC, etc. shut up about Monkeypox with amazing quickness as soon as it became clear that it was only being contracted by 1) gay men, and 2) their kids / dogs.

Is it a conspiracy? I would call it a soft conspiracy. There's no guy sitting in a mountain lair stroking a cat while he calls shots- "call CNN and cancel Monkeypox- they're onto us!"

Instead, what we have is a distinct majority of non-white, non-male, non-straight people who have been galvanized against the white male out of jealousy. The white man circumnavigated the globe, tamed the wilderness, and walked on the moon while they their ancestors fornicated, worshiped idols, and played five-note music on hollowed out gourds. And to this day, they are poor, unkempt, and spiritually lost compared to us.

As devoid of any real courage or organizational ability as "everyone else" may be, they are numerous enough that they can accomplish a lot (of destruction, at least) based solely on this collective understanding of who their enemy is. It's a "leaderless conspiracy" of sorts, because no one involved really has any inborn tendency to lead or organize.

These people *know* instinctively to cancel the Monkeypox narrative just because the real truth proves the virtue of the straight white man.

No, but I do remember pet dogs and children getting it and people all of the sudden wanted to stop talking about and reporting on it.

Remember how it went away quickly partly because of the butt sex aspect but ramped up when a kid and a dog got it?

Remember when they stopped reporting on it because a few adopted kids of some gay couples got it?


Remember when the guy Biden put in charge of stopping it turned out to be a Satanic frick that said changing sexual behavior to fight the spread was out of the question because it would “stop our joy”?

Neither article says anything about it being terrible.

They're trying to get rid of the internal combustion engine too. Saying that getting rid of CFC's saved the ozone layer is like saying "I was vaxxed and still caught Covid, but it would have been a lot worse if I hadn't been vaxxed."

There's this saying, ya see - "Correlation does not necessarily equal causation."

Us? It may have been on the way of ending gays the way AIDS was before the US stupidly intervened.
