I just think it's funny that it's just another thing that The Right has been duped into forking over their money to buy goofy hats and tshirts. Has any group of people ever so willingly labeled themselves as financial suckers before? No wonder these grifters and con artists have infested the Republican Party so successfully.

So long as the people buying goofy $45 tshirts that are made in China aren't the same ones whining about the economy and American jobs. Oh, wait, they are.

And yet you’re still convinced that all of this COVID business is above board?

big pharma
politicians
insurance industry
airline industry
internet/social media deviants and malcontents and whackjobs


just to name a few.

Not saying they’re all in cahoots. I am wondering if they are playing the media to keep people in a perpetual state of anxiety so they’ll be more likely to use their products.

but pharma isn’t who discovers new variants…nor are they the ones testing the severity of such things

this is where your logic fails. pharma would have to be in cahoots with the government authorities/labs that are actually doing that work

I'm not talking about actual results, which are scientific in nature, i.e. open to interpretation and change as more data are colleged. I'm talking about the 24-hour news cycle that is intentionally sensationalized and exploits fears rather than urging calm and measured responses. It's how toilet-paper hoarding and runs on supplies of bottled water and sanitizer came about, all of which benefitted those who sell them.

So Big Pharma is what, giving kickbacks to the TV networks for keeping everyone hysterical so that the public will buy more vaccines when in the real world, Big Pharma probably makes way more money if everyone didn't get vaccinated and ended up in the hospital getting treated with a huge variety of their products?!?

No wonder a bunch of people were standing out in Dallas awaiting the arrival of JFK Jr. It's amazing the goofy crap some people believe.

Well honestly, that isn't true at all. It is spoken about all over in TV shows, ads, commentaries etc...

But that doesn't mean that his theory isn't ridiculous because it certainly is. Ten seconds worth of thought about how Big Pharma could make the most money is all it takes to poke giant holes in it.
