Scaremongering

Richard Cronin

In my lifetime the predictions of world-ending catastrophes have just accumulated. There’s a lot of money and centralized governance in scary stories.

Civil Defense placards on elementary schools to provide shelter for nuclear war. Rachel Carson published "Silent Spring” in 1962. The observations about bird eggs were all cooked up. Paul Ehrlich’s 1968 book "The Population Bomb”. In 1970, Senator Gaylord Nelson moved the first Earth Day confab to April 22 to coincide with Lenin’s birthday. Then there was specter of a coming Ice Age in the 1970s. The 1974 paper on "ozone depletion” won a Nobel Prize for Molina and Rowland (Quick ! Gather up all the old hair spray cans using CFCs !). Killer Bees ! Then we had Y2K.

Until the early 2000s I actually thought that there might be something to Anthropogenic Climate Change. Then I came to the awareness that AGW was the greatest scientific hoax ever, but It didn’t stop there. Covid 19 is the hoax of all hoaxes.

Hermann Goerring is (falsely) attributed with the following statement, although it does ring true:

Re: Control. "It was very easy, it has nothing to do with Nazism, it has something to do with human nature. You can do it in a Nazi, socialist, communist regime, in a monarchy and even in a democracy. The only thing that needs to be done to enslave people is to scare them. If you manage to find a way to scare people, you can make them do what you want.”

Tim adds:

Michael Crichton theorized about this in his novel State of Fear. He rightly saw the modern Progressives as waging an endless fear campaign to keep people in line and to promote their agenda. The universities generate some scary scenario, the media promotes it, and the politicians then implement policies based on it. But it's all phony-balogna plastic banana stuff.

Remember dioxin? Alar? Nuclear winter? The list goes on and on. There is always a new scare coming up. Now it's Covid.

Some of these things perish of their own accord, but others are just too good to let go. Global Warming and now the Covid business are too good to let go. Global Warming has been a generation-long War of the Worlds scare. Covid is looking to be going for a long time too. And both were completely ginned up, fake panic.
