The overreaction by media/Govt on Covid19 is an Orwellian trial balloon

Make no mistake, these cancellations and quarantines are just tests to see how much the citizens will put up with without pushback. It’s an effort to study if an Orwellian state is attainable without mass revolt.
1. Overblow a new virus outbreak
2. Shutdown a large portion of independent travel and commerce. Cancel all concerts, sporting events, anything that reflects American competitiveness, pop culture, entertainment.
3. Mandated quarantines and curfews.
4. Lack of supplies lead to violence and looting, gun confiscation happens.
5. We lose. We emerge in a world where everything is controlled by the Govt and we are told when, where, and what we can do.
Do not let this happen. Do not give up your freedoms out of fear.
“Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety”

That sounds like a nice theory but our government isn’t that efficient.

The guy is right. This is a load of bull.

No it’s more like people are overreacting. The government have their heads too far up their own asses to coordinate a wide scale thing like this without any leaks

I guess we are about to find out, whether we want to or not.

Why are you so sure it's an overreaction?
This is the same guy that did a press conference with Trump and Pence yesterday. He's not some deep state globalist trying to help the NWO.
quote:
Dr. Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases: "People always say the flu does this, the flu does that..." COVID-19 is "10 times more lethal than seasonal flu" "I think that's something that people can get their arms around & understand."

Truthfully, we need this trial balloon.
If this was 2004 SARS spreading we would be genuinely fricked

Does the media/government in this conspiracy theory have the entire globe in on it?
Posted on 3/11/20 at 4:54 pm to Pettifogger
You're right. Humans have faced pandemics for as long as we've been around. It's not some conspiracy that we're facing another one. We just have to deal with it and move on.

This isn’t being done by FedGov in this instance.
It’s being done by leftist media, state Govt officials, and leaders of large corporations.
It’s not a push this time for control. It’s a test in small areas of the country to get a sample of what they can get away with when the globalists get back in power.

Oddly, in a way, I thought of this too. Maybe not that deep off the edge but is this a test to see what people will put up with in terms of government control? Who knows, I know I’m not overly concerned with this virus crap but the tin foil hat part is hmmm.

An age of all-encompasing information plus a pandemic is sort of unprecendented. I think that is what we're in right now.
We'll see how it plays out.

We don’t wrestle against flesh and blood. But against spiritual wickedness in high places.

This is actually a really good point as well

Flu dwaths this year: 8,200 per CDC
Kung flu deaths so far: 32 per CDC
Math anyone?
