This time around, the grifters are telling their suckers that Hillary Clinton and the round-earthers have cooked up a diabolical pathogen called “Disease X” to rid the planet of “excess population,” “install a corporate world government,” and “enslave humanity.” If you don’t want your body to get covered in festering boils and carbuncles the size of chicken eggs, you need to buy a “medical contagion kit” with vials of life-saving ivermectin manufactured right here in God’s most favorite country in the whole universe.
Oh Jesus is this what some guy in my extended social circle was trying to tell me about?
I’ve gotten pretty good at playing dumb and diverting the conversation away towards something tangentially related and based in reality, but it’s getting hard man.
The worst part is that when the next pandemic actually does emerge, they’ll scream that it was disease x and say they’ve been using the “cure” all along, so they’ll take zero precautions and probably performatively engage in behaviors that spread the disease.
