Swine flu is just a distraction?!

1,911 Views | 26 Replies

My mom thinks so. Alot of people are saying that H1N1 is just a diversion, and is not real because of the economy crisis. Apparently it's planned by the Government, and some scientists are trying to prove this right by doing their own tests on victims.

I say it's working, cause every time i turn on the TV and go to the news, it used to be economy and TSX bullcrap, but now its all about swine flu.

Your thoughts?

Yeah, as if people would forget about economic crisis.

It's not a diversion as much as it is the media drawing way too much attention toward the matter and over-hyping the situation.

By america you mean the U.S., right?

Yeah, except it didn't start in the U.S. and it doesn't only affect the U.S.

Your theory is right in that it is distracting us from the economy and such.

But, the government didn't plan it.

sorry, they just didn't

The media is just inciting fear to manipulate the public, so Obama can push for all his programs be promising "relief" for problems that aren't really that bad, for example this "Great recession" isn't nearly as bad as the one back in the 1970's, but the media is saying this is the next "great depression" to get people afraid, so they support Obama because he promises to make every thing "disappear"

And for all oof you people who are going to bash me let me tell you now, I'm not republican, I'm a Reagan Conservative, although I don't believe in political parties, and you can even look and talk to a survivor of the great depression and they will yell you the same as I.

Hopefully the public will start to look past the curtain and see that Obama is just a puppet.

Widespread panic over a pandemic is alot worse that widespread panic about the economy. It'd be like me cutting your arm off to make you forget about scraping your knee.

I wouldn't say they planned it but I'm sure that once the story broke a lot of politicans went "well this could be useful" and decided to exploit it. That and the media going "ooooh, new horror story to get everyone watching"

We need another 9/11, so that the media can stop bitching about pointless shit.

Wait, so you want a 9/11 2 so the media stops bitching about the 'pointless shit' so they go back to the 9/11ish bullshit?

What economic crisis? Are small children lining up for food at a Salvation Army? No. It's just a recession, really. People need to calm down. The economy will fix itself. Slumps are natural.
And H1N1 wouldn't spread if people would cover their mouth and nose with a tissue or their arm, not their hands when the cough/sneeze, and wash their hands more often.

well, DUH.
Isn't it obvious that mainstream media just alters our mind? They can make people panic, they can make people decide who to vote on. They can distract them from things they don't want the people to worry about. What they want us to see is what we get to see.

Some people think it was a bio attack on Obama, because it happened around the time he made an appearance there. These aren't my words, but things I've heard from some people. I don't buy it.

Me, personally, I think it's just a simple illness blown out of proportion. It's not as effective as influenza, Mexico is not exactly known for its hygiene, and bird flu is 800x worse.

But seriously, swine flu really does sound like a hoax now. Perhaps there is some alien landing somewhere and the government are shutting up people by saying they are ill.
