China has had so many internal issues for CENTURIES that I doubt that was the plan or if it was they were little more than a shell company
Think the real plan was to diminish US hegemony and replace it with international organisations like the UN, EU, WHO, IMF etc and the pandemic was a test run for it.
It failed but they're still trying to persue the plan anyway which is why this year SO much has broken down because they won't acknowledge they don't have the resources to continue so I think we're ending up at having NO global power, maybe several regional powers and even corporations controlling some regions.
China is simply not meant to be a conquering nation. They built the most powerful navy in the world in the 1400s, well before Columbus, then they just sort of stopped using it for no good reason.
I didn’t see the original 5 guys post. For me it was the “gamers are dead” articles that opened my eyes.
Then I saw the same playbook in comicsgate and sad puppies. All that was prelude to 2016.
Then I started thinking back and saw that the rot started a long time before that. Like the day I realized every single article on io9 was about being gay, black, or female. Or a gay black female. Or that time Scientific American had a message from the editor saying that they were going to “make a stand” and be political… but the articles already were.

This is the step a lot of people miss. Sure it takes something of them and theirs being affected to finally wake up to what is going on, but not many then take it beyond that event and ask whether it's been happening beforehand. Far too many will follow the Gell-Mann amnesia effect and compartmentalise a problem which offers the leading cause too much leeway in escaping appropriate scrutiny.
Cheers bruv - I can still remember the scales starting to peel from my eyes that fateful day. It didn't happen overnight, but I eventually got myself better situated in life after leaving Libchurch™. Hope much the same holds for you and everyone else here (even Imp).
Never thought I'd be here ten years later, but the horrors persist and so do I.
Here's to another ten.
What's crazy is the real horror probably hasn't even hit yet

Jewbook says 66.6% (kek) of mankind will be wiped out in minutes at some point. Two thirds is the figure the bible gives.

how about the blatantly pay-for-play "reviews" in EGM back in the nineties...
