 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 4076414


Hmmm. Not sure if this is what you are referring to here, but it is interesting:

Black Swan Theory, as explained by Nassim Nicholas Taleb in his 2007/2010 book, The Black Swan, describes an event which is a disproportionally-rare occurrence, is unpredictable, but has a high-impact when it does occur. According to Taleb, Black Swan events include the September 11 attacks, the rise of the Internet, World War I and the development of the personal computer. As a result, the event’s non-predictability causes behavioral/psychological changes within people, especially ones who adhere to the scientific method for identifying events. Statistically speaking, these outliers pay a disproportionate role in public opinion and public policy.

mid 2000s, there was a lot of "chatter" about missing nukes and suitcase nukes, the 7 cities scenario was part of it. not sure where it originated, supposedly a cia plot, but was talked about a good bit here on glp and elsewhere

Thanks! Heard of it but the details didn't come to mind.

My perspective on this is that they are using "Black Swan" terminology to describe this pandemic in order to generate fear in the public. The public panic then will allow them to put new controls in place.

Which is why I found the excerpt above interesting.

I'm not saying that the other possibilities, like what you mention and what others mention, aren't likely as well. It's just not what I'm betting on at the moment.
