What if COVID-19 were actually the first step in an evil plot? Who’s behind it? What’s their goal? Who’s gonna stop them?!

Sounds like the job for a group of ex-covert operatives who have turned to doing good, but are on the run for a crime they didn’t commit

One thing 22 years in Navy taught me is that the government is too stupid to create a conspiracy, but exactly stupid enough to make a bad situation worse by good people afraid to make the wrong decision, scared people afraid to make any decision at all, and greedy people who have been waiting for a chance to make self-serving decisions.

Possible answers.

Clearly Antifa is trying to kill off all the elderly republicans so the left can retake the white house this election and in the meantime also conditioning us all to be used to curfews and eventually martial law… :exploding_head:
