WHO Declares Swine Flu Pandemic: CTs go Hysterical

Now that WHO has declared Swine Flu a "pandemic" the woos, as you would expect, are in full fledged "everyone run around in circles and scream" mode. I started a new thread instead of bumping the old one since I think this newest development will lend to a much more entertaining amount of CT panic.

There are seem to be two camps on this still though: one maintains this is a NWO plot to scare everyone to force people to take vaccines (because we all know vaccines kill you), and the other claims that its already killed more than the media lets on and its the next bubonic plague.

The fighting between these two groups is hilarious. Who will win - paranoia or hysteria? Stay tuned for more as the Conspiracy World Turns...

Yes, because no one would notice mass amounts of people dying around them.

How boring. Is any world event, both historically and contemporary, free of conspiracy idiocy??

Funny...I could care less about the "Swine Flu". It seems to be the most pathetic Pandemic we have ever had.

Lame...lame...lame.

Yes - positive events don't generate conspiracies, they just get ignored by the CTs. Doom and gloom sells though. Any negative world event which furthers the idea that the apocalypse is near is embraced by the CTers, any positive event is ignored.

Example: Last year, September - December, the CTs were declaring that the end was nigh (literally) and people should be stocking up on food and fleeing for the hills. Now that the stock market has had a rally for 3 straight months, its completely ignored - and the ones that do notice it claim its all market manipulation. If the market goes down, its "for real" and a sign that the end is near, when it goes up its "manipulation" by the government to lure the sheeple back to sleep.

The pandemic will soon be canceled on account of lack of viruses.

According to Alex Jones the last event that the NWO didn't coordinate was little Big Horn.*



*No seriously.**


** Yes seriously.

Depending on context, either "Conspiracy Theory" or "Theorist".
