While the pandemic is getting worst, conspiracy theories are spreading like wildfire too in the internet world. And mind you, they are getting a huge following among the people.
One of the famous theories is that there is a secret society of the evil elite people of this world who wanted to establish a New World Order- a ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT. The theory goes that the COVID-19 is actually a plandemic designed by these people to spread fear among the populace in order to gain power and control. According to the theory, the COVID-19 virus is not really deadly and that the people behind it are just manipulating the number of positive cases and mortalities in order to make it appear scary.
I am sorry but I find that theory hilarious. In that theory you are portraying a brainless and a stupid elite which I believe is an exact opposite of who they really are. Allow me to share my theory then.
If the elite really wanted to establish a New World Order through this pandemic, their plan should at least go like this:
I am pretty sure that these evil people knew very well that power and control will only be realized if the people would really feel total fear and desperation. They should have known that if they will spread a fake virus which is not really deadly, the people are not that stupid to not to discover it. Surely they will find out that it is fake and that my friend will even make them bolder instead of being dominated by fear. It will foster resistance instead of submission.
But if they will spread a true deadly virus that will create a real pandemic with authentic death cases caused by a real deadly virus, there and then you will see a people that are overshadowed by fear and dread. A people that are now willing to surrender their rights to the elite just to escape the plague.
And so if the conspiracy theory is true then the road we are heading to will probably be like this:
The vaccinated are generally responsive to the virus. There might be death cases among the vaccinated but it will be minimal. But the reality is that they are just partially or temporarily protected by the vaccine. So when they contacted the virus they will not get very sick. But here's the downside of this, the virus can now stay longer in their body without getting sick and that would give the virus enough time to mutate into an even stronger variant- a deadlier one. So the vaccinated will now become breeders, carriers, and super spreaders of a much worst COVID variant. And then those who are still unvaccinated will suffer the most in this new variant. So, massive mortality will occur and it will now bring dread and desperation to everybody. Surely fear will creep in into the hearts of many and the elite who are from the very beginning were already holding the solution of the pandemic, will now present it to the masses causing the majority to willingly submit to their whims and will. Thus realizing their goal of power and control.
Well, I actually believe the conspiracy theory that there is really some elite group of people (they are often called Illuminati) and they are behind 9/11 and stuff, but this pandemic is probably not their job. For the reasons that you wrote :) I liked your article.
