Having checked into this further, it seems that far from wanting to engage in biological warfare, it's an attempt to find a cure. Weaponised? Why bother?
What do you mean "why bother"? I am not just talking about domestic weaponization; as a matter of fact, I am talking about foreign attack.
The powers of the world have far easier and more reliable ways to kill every living thing, proven and tested on real people.
It costs less money and energy to control people by something they believe is natural. Look at How obedient people were with respect to "social distancing". It's even a "thing" to accept our demise!
We have freely given up because of our lack of imagination and ignorance. That is why we never realize our mistakes until they are printed in history books. We worked hard to get to this point.
Viruses can be defeated. Not so a nuclear armed hypersonic missile. Not this week anyway.
Your handicap is your logic and reason. You assume we will be logically culled according to your understanding of geopolitics. Do you realize as a layperson you are given a facade and illusion of choice?
You cannot fathom why this would be used for exploitation because you are not a psychopath, and likely have not encountered the trauma of one.
It doesn't matter that the virus can be defeated; the target is the mind - to make us beg for our demise and provide our consent as we continue to do.
People are much easier and cheaper to produce than Robots.
Absolutely no they arent: people must be "watched over" by A nanny state lest there be total chaos. Humans have a mind, which is dangerous. It is why most people have been bred and socially conditioned to have the same reaction you have (to doubt the lengths of their exploitation). Robots do not protest, robots do not think outside of the coded box they are given.
A conquering nation needs survivors to enslave so that they can do the work that led the nation to be attacked in the first place.
Who told you this?
Dont you realize the entire world is already a willing slave? We are already psychologically and intellectually bred to be slaves and accept our place. And, those who don't align fully to that fate end up as pariahs For the rest of the population - by design.
For example, Australia is good at mining and agriculture. Why kill off all the potential workers with a virus? It make no sense. China would destroy Australia's military in a few days, march in and take over in weeks.
The entire world is already a slave to a Beast system. It is already here now. Virus is meant to be a red herring for specie futures which, of course, I won't talk about since it's too "crazy for 'educated' minds"... yet a reality. Using a virus is easy because look at humans: they are scared pantsless over it. It provides as an entertaining show to have us run amok scared of a bogeyman - with no real direction.
You act as if these are not the same people that rape children (documented) and use their power to build programs that rival eugenics (documented). Or, do you even know about those? Consider yourself blessed you don't have the capacity to see how evil humans can be.
Humans have stunted our own understanding by having an idea of what is "reasonable" or logical governing human behavior.
Because they can, and we allow it. It's very simple; your logic and reasoning is your handicap.
They already buy stuff cheap and send it back as finished goods. War is pretty pointless when you can enslave a nation economically without firing a shot.
YOU believe war is pointless but it is the thing that gets nations out of some debt, for example. It is unfortunate we l aypersons have such myopic views on what can and should be done, because it is precisely what keeps us as the slaves we don't realize we are.
We never listen, and we will continue to stay slaves as long as we let other created entities control and rule our spirit - as most of us do now.
