"This minor symptom could be a sign that you have Lancia Delta Integrale variant!"
"These scientists say super Covid could emerge any time, with insane killing potential"
"This virus emerging in (insert country here) could be even worse than Covid!"
"Look at this perfectly healthy (actually has leukemia) boy who died of Covid-19"
"The ice in Siberia is melting and revealing long hidden viruses that could cause the next pandemic"
It's the same fucking tactic the feminists use to push boys to be girls. Same fucking tactic that abusive wives use to beat down their partners. Any minor issue is a sign of greater problems and constantly fearbombing.
You're right. The rhetoric around Covid-19 features a huge amount of emotional manipulation. This is something that women are masters of, and they are using it to great effect.
Of course, part of the reason it is so successful is the feminisation of society as a whole. Throughout the Western would, emotions are considered more important than anything else, both my men and women. The stoicism of past generations has been eradicated and replaced by a tendency to place feelings above everything else, and most people now think emotionally rather than logically. This is a godsent to the powers-that-be, as it relative easy to manipulate emotions.
"This is something that women are masters of"
I beg to differ. That's women's ONLY play before they start crying. They're not masters of anything unless it involves garnering attention.
No shit, they start crying - a form of emotional manipulation. And how do they garner attention? Emotional manipulation.
Tits and emotional manipulation
I had a female family member go to the emergency department in the middle of the night recently because she was anxious and couldn't sleep about some non-emergency test results performed earlier in the day qnd didn't have the discipline qnd coping skills to wait for her doctor's office to call her with the results the next morning.
To be clear, she wasn't having any emergency symptoms. And her doctor wasn't on-call at the hospital. The hospital wasn't even the facility that performed her test the day before and didn't have access to her pending results.
She just went to the emergency in the middle of the night because "she couldn't wait". So of course the poor ER doc didn't have anything to offer her, but they of course redundantly ran a second series of futile tests that weren't necessary and validated her decision.
When another female family member was describing the series of events and I commented that it was an inappropriate use of the emergency department and being anxious and impatient are not excuses not to wait until morning to call your doctor's office.
The second narrating female family member said they disagreed and "would have done the same thing" and felt that "anxious feelings" were a perfectly good reason to use emergency services in the middle of the night.
We subsequently got into an argument when I pointed out that the emergency department is for "emergency symptoms" not "negative feelings".
It really made me realize how dangerous female decision-making processes can be if they are so heavily-weighted by feelings, even if this example is relatively benign.
