i have a conspiracy theory about covid-19 that a youtube video neatly put into a sentence for me. "china has started (and is possibly winning) a world war without using a single (known) weapon."

to know americans is to defeat them.

though there are casualties (wuhan citizens that were rendered "a small price to pay" anyway because wet markets aren't a trackable economy) a new world order is coming gift wrapped. biological warfare will never be atomic bombs again but disease can do as much damage.

knowing the denialist culture in american politics (maybe to maintain a sense of superiority? who knows?) and the ignorance & powerlessness of its average citizens, they never stood a chance. their president has already coined this a "chinese virus." they have already won minds.

china only needed to *look* hard hit by covid-19. that was the trade off. let a huge number (in global standards) of citizens die. convince the world it's a problem that mainly afflicts them.

but they have a giant population. what looks big to the western world is tiny to them.

whilst letting ignorance have devastating effects on western populations, esp usa, until it's too late. the chinese probably have a vaccine PLUS iterations of it that have already withstood mutation under trial. the "covid-19 is back in hong kong" story is their second act.

also interesting who jack ma (china's richest man) has decided to offer aid to globally. look at the countries he's sending masks, gloves, ventilators & money to (south africa is there on that list). they are quietly buying goodwill & leverage under the guise of charity.

i've been sounding like a tinfoil hat person for years talking about "chinese colonization." my husband was sick of me rambling on but today his eyes widened because the puzzle finally made sense. i am no longer scared. i am terrified.

their only real threat is the usa. that's who they really need to cripple. they are taking europe along because those are the only countries with enough money and racial solidarity to help america once the jig is up. the rest of us are just collateral damage.

south africa finds itself in a unique advantageous position though. but i'll unpack that when i've had another glass of wine.

when i was in zimbabwe on a business mission with my then sugar daddy back in 2019, i saw that colonization up close. we think "there's no helping zim now. they are a lost cause." for a reason. they are south africa 1.0. the prototype. the vantage point from which they study us.

all in all, kusezoba lit.
