If I were tasked to write a screenplay, the following would occur.
1. Warfare using armies with conventional weapons would be replaced by the use of a pandemic with
only the "Good Guys" prepared with the vaccine. To accomplish this task, a dry run would be needed to gather data on compliance / push-back by the populations at large.
2. Control of Media would be necessary to silence naysayers and any whistle-blower should that arise.
3. Medical professionals / experts could be leveraged by offering million dollar grants for future research.
Conscientious professionals who didn't go along would be labeled, slandered, censored, cancelled.
4. While working on an absolutely reliable vaccine / antidote - the lab experiences a careless leak into the public square.
5. Suddenly a fail safe CYA (cover your ass) emergency drill is triggered. Public and private records of research is taken offline. Public Service Announcements put out a cover story and a BIG SHOW of competent heroism would be released.
6. Absolute compliance would be pushed with a partially ineffective vaccine offered as a miracle cure.
False claims would be pushed
A. Take the vaccine and you won't get the virus
B. Once inoculated, you can't spread the virus or become re-infected.
C. Even kids would be pushed to take the jab.
7. If everybody gets the vaccines no alternate comparison group would be available to falsify the claims.
I think it now becomes apparent that such a screenplay would never pass muster.
Why?
Too far-fetched!

A Very Mysterious Place none of us should WORRY about -(nothing to see here...move along...)
by Terry innothing to see here?i was watching an old move from 2008 a couple of days ago, the bourne legacy.there was a plotpoint made in dialogue which centered on a place in the u.s. called fort detrick (in maryland).
a military lab there had a terrible accident but the unforeseen consequence led to a discovery which the bourne legacy needed to work the plot.my head started to buzz and i thought i would do a google search on fort detrick.
ya know - as we sometimes do when our head starts to buzz?next stop: a rabbit holehere is what i have learned so far.__________fort detrick is the center of u.s. bio-military activities.

NOTHING TO SEE HERE?
I was watching an old move from 2008 a couple of days ago, THE BOURNE LEGACY.
There was a plotpoint made in dialogue which centered on a place in the U.S. called Fort Detrick (in Maryland). A military lab there had a terrible accident but the unforeseen consequence led to a discovery which The Bourne Legacy needed to work the plot.
My head started to buzz and I thought I would do a Google search on Fort Detrick. Ya know - as we sometimes do when our head starts to buzz?
Next stop: a RABBIT HOLE
Here is what I have learned so far.
__________
Fort Detrick is the center of U.S. bio-military activities. (It is in Maryland.)
United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Disease (USAMRIID) is located there.
Stop right there!
That hyphenated two word term (bio-military) is a horror term, is it not?
But perhaps, no.
Not if it is for “defense” purposes - right?
Wikipedia says, “The United States biological defense program—in recent years also called the National Bio-defense Strategy—refers to the collective effort by all levels of government, along with private enterprise and other stakeholders, in the United States to carry out bio-defense activities.”
Okay, let us continue …
U.S. germ warfare research was ended by U.S. renouncement of all offensive biological weapons programs in 1969 and ratification to the Biological Weapons Convention (BWC) in 1975.
Whew! Glad to hear that - aren’t you?
Defense is a reasonable word.
Biodefense is a system of planned actions to counter and reduce the risk of biological threats and to prepare, respond to, and recover from them if they happen.
Read on, gentle reader - read on …
Wikipedia tells me, “Fort Detrick was the center of the U.S. biological weapons program from 1943 to 1969.”
In 2018 President Donald J. Trump released the National Bio-defense Strategy memorandum.
National Bio-defense Strategy elevated natural outbreaks as a vital component of the U.S. biological defense program for the first time, mostly because of the significant risk that natural outbreaks pose to civilian, animal and agricultural populations across the country.
Now, what if Private Industrial interests wanted to buddy up with Military Strategists and continue
BIO-WEAPONS program under a different banner - such as - Bio-Defense?
Where would be a good location for that?
Fort Detrick, Maryland, where the U.S. Army Biological Warfare Laboratories were headquartered sounds ideal.
The current mission is multi-agency, not exclusively military, and is purely to develop defensive measures against bio-agents, as opposed to the former bio-weapons development program.
Do you see a problem? What problem?
Wikipedia shows:
Sure, Bio Weapons are banned - but heck - what about the good intentions of the new program:
U.S. now maintains that the Article I of the BWC (which explicitly bans bio-weapons), does not apply to "non-lethal" biological agents.
There ya go!
Change the words and the problem disappears!
Take non-lethal and do what? Change it into lethal. Oh.
That must a good thing. For Science and all that.
Funding?
Don’t worry: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was slated to receive $8 billion, a $636 million increase over 2019, with a mandate written in the bill for CDC "to maintain a strong and central role in the medical countermeasures enterprise."
United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Disease (USAMRIID) stores almost all known deadly pathogens, such as Ebola, anthrax, smallpox, plague, and coronaviruses including SARS right here in the good old U.S.A. in Maryland at Fort Detrick.
(Big Sigh)
In 2003 this facility developed a novel reverse genetic system for manipulation of a full-length cDNA of the SARS-CoV, and relevant outcomes were published in a paper in 2003. According to the paper, within two months after obtaining the RNA of the SARS virus, the full-length cDNA of the virus was successfully synthesized. This shows that as early as 2003, these institutes already had the advanced capabilities to synthesize and modify SARS-related coronaviruses.
Are you worried yet? Curious?
The 2019 influenza in the United States might have overlapped with COVID-19. According to U.S. CDC statistics, there were about 39 to 56 million influenza cases between October 2019 and April 2020, resulting in 24,000 to 62,000 deaths. Given the similar symptoms, COVID-19 patients could have been misdiagnosed as influenza patients. To determine whether such cases exist, in particular in and prior to October 2019, a nation-wide retrospective investigation and research should be done in the United States.In March 2020, a petition was filed on the White House petition website, asking the U.S. government to disclose information related to Fort Detrick, especially the reason why the USAMRIID lab was shut down in 2019 and whether it had anything to do with COVID-19.
The U.S. government has made no response, and the petition website has been taken offline altogether.
Likely as not, all the above is simply CHINESE COMMUNIST PARTY counter propaganda strategy, don’t you think?
Or do you?
I don’t know Jack Sh*t.

AI Generated Art - Impact on Artists
by Simon inunless you've been hibernating under a rock for the last couple of years, you're probably aware that ai is the new hotness.. chatgpt gets a lot of attention but equally amazing is how capable ai is at generating art.
if you'd been ask to name anything that would be the last holdout for humans, creative arts such as writing, painting, and music would probably be some of the things at the top of the list.. yet those seem to be the things that ai can do best.. it's fascinating to use the tools, but one thing you realize is that they are just combining patterns and shapes, there isn't yet any real "intelligence", artificial or otherwise.. as an example, you can ask it to create a painting in the style or a particular artist, with a whole raft of things you want to include.
it will do a great job on first glance, but can often give people more arms or fingers than is normal, and lamp-posts can grow to different heights, like trees.

Peaceful Pete, technology has saved our bacon time and again.
Case in point: fertilizer.
Fear mongering actually serves a useful purpose IF the target audience is motivated
to FIX what's broken.
The despicable part of RELIGIOUS fear-mongering is that there is NO PRICE PAID by the
malefactors for getting it wrong.
Among Jehovah's Witnesses it work like this.
1. The numbers go up because "All aboard the Ark".
2. Great Disappointment due to failure of event - BUT...look at the outcome:
a. Weak ones leave
b. Strong believers remain and double-down
3. All the older generations know about the flops but they've put their entire life investment of time
and family sociability into a lottery. "What if I pull out and my number comes up?" FOMO is powerful. -

THERE IS A TRAP involved!
Follow the logic, if you will...
1. Only an apostate would SEE this fake announcement on an apostate site or hear it from an apostate source.
2. A faithful JW who received this information could use this story to identify any apostate instantly.
3. Easy Peasy targeting i.d. Mission Accomplished -

Hidden history of the Watchtower religion
by TerryWalstrom inthe deeper you dig--the less impressive jw’s become!___________________you may think you know the men who are vitally important to the birth of the religion--but chances are good you’ve been kept in the dark.. _____________.
did you know?the 1st case heard by the supreme court of the united states concerning the watchtower society involved a director (an officer) of the watchtower, william franklyn hudgings.. a brief description of hudgings and his character.hudgings was an attorney, quack doctor, self-identified ‘scientist’, a pro-zionist, and religious enthusiast who over the years held various director and officer positions in the watchtower society, and the affiliated people's pulpit association and international bible students association.
at the time of this particular case, william hudgings acknowledged being the corporate secretary of the people's pulpit association and acknowledged that his daily duties included the administrative charge of printing of the watchtower magazine, the bible student's monthly, the kingdom news, and other watchtower publications.. (hudgings was also re-elected to the watchtower society board of directors in january 1919.

I wonder if it comes down to "knowing" the history or if it has more to do with a person's "social needs"
and craving for discipline and a numinous experience?
It can't be intellect alone. Emotion, superstitious tendency, depth of education/ all those things have more weight than a cold historical analysis as far as a newly interested person is concerned.
Also...
A newbie has no pressure to overcome for the first six weeks. Love bombs are going off during that time.
You become the most interesting person in the world while you're being courted.
After that -- it is boiling the frog s-l-o-w-ly.
