Where most conspiracy theories get in trouble and sound nuts is when people start attaching odd motives to the various situations. I know why they do it, because our brains want to know WHY.
I'm old enough to remember all the classes we were given during the cold war about being able to spot propaganda. I don't know why, I don't know exactly who.
But our news has changed to 2 views of the same propaganda with no nuance, and there are people thinking that Science doesn't get debated, even when at best it is "baby Science" less than 2 years old. Even on this platform just questioning the narrative can you canceled and bullied, but what it will never get you is a well thought out opposing view.
What I do know is the Western approach to Covid is nothing we have ever seen before and unable to be questioned, the talking points were ridiculous and incorrect.
This Russian Invasion is also odd, but another situation that has emergency money flying around to the same people to determine what is important during an emergency.
My heart breaks for the Ukrainians and also the Russian people.
I don't know how, why etc, I could guess, but I not all is as we are being told.
Also I admit that my husband being diagnosed with Stage 4 Cancer during Covid.. the odds he was given.. 2 percent chance to survive 2 years. Compared to the odds of surviving Covid, greatly impacted how I view the entire thing.
Treatment was hard, getting results was hard, and everyone was having a fit over Covid. For me it was just painful.
I care for some elderly family members and I couldn't imagine dealing with all that in the midst of the pandemic. I had to take my father to the hospital one night around the peak of the start of the pandemic and it was a nightmare.
Thoughts and prayers for you and your family!
I guess I should have added that so far he is doing really well. They said he would never be Cancer free, and he has been "clear" for a year now. I'm still hopeful, cause how would I not be.
But, regarding the hospital, 3 times, I had to drop him off at the ER and NOT go in with him in one case I honestly didn't know if he would come back out. Inhumane and I don't think I will ever get over it.
Had a pretty similar scenario. That's a really terrible feeling too. I can totally relate.
That's so awesome. Always stay positive, it's all we can do in most situations! Never underestimate the power of positive thinking and good energy.
Knowing the how and why of almost anything these days is pretty tough to discern. On top of that, there is so much disinformation it's almost impossible to find the truth. Adding censorship to that scenario or only allowing the state approved narrative only adds to the confusion. Crazy times indeed.
