Please allow me to introduce myself

My name is Paul R. Welke and I have recently been hired as the new
conspiracy theorist here at TRUSTNO1. I find that things are not always
as they appear to be, and that commonly held beliefs are often propagated
by the institutions that we rely on to run various aspects of our lives.
Many of these beliefs are lies, and the truth is often very elusive. The
simplest explanation is not always the correct one, and a great deal of
investigation is needed in order to expose these lies. Please keep in
mind that I have no evidence whatsoever to support my claims, except for
rational thought and logic, combined with a heightened sense of paranoia.


AND THE BAND PLAYED ON

Many of us have seen various movies that explore the origins of
the AIDS virus. One of the first of this type of film is called "And the
Band Played On", which claims that the AIDS virus can be traced to a small
village in Africa, and stems from primates. We have been deceived into
believing this by the radical right of the American government who has
created this virus for its own goals. The fact that most AIDS victims, in
the beginning, were homosexual men and habitual drug users supports this.
What conservative wouldn't jump at the chance to eliminate a large portion
of their opposition without leaving any trace of foul play whatsoever?
Most drug users are lower class people who, truth be told, would not
generate much sympathy from the masses. Being lower class, it is also
quite probable that they support a more liberal, democratic political
ideology. Most gays are also quite liberal, due to the fact that
homosexuality has still not gained full acceptance within mainstream
society. Now we have a quite logical motive: The right wing (dare I say,
"fascist?") has created something that can rid them of a very vocal
portion of their opposition without too many people suspecting anything
amiss. Some have even had the audacity to claim that this disease is a
punishment from a god who feels that we need to be rid of homosexuals and
drug users who "plague our society with their mere existence". Now, many
of you will be asking, "How did this disease first show up in a small
village in Africa?" My answer to you is simple and although, ghastly
because of its implications, quite logical. As with any biological
weapon, a test group was needed, as well as a scapegoat to be used as a
point of origin. The government of the day felt that a small village in
Africa, far away from any CNN cameras, would be perfect for a test group;
relatively secluded, and pretty much insignificant in their grand scheme
of things. It also sounds a lot more plausible if a virus of this sort
comes from some remote jungle on another continent as opposed to just
suddenly appearing in blood banks across North America. Unfortunately,
this disease is indiscriminant; it is now a great concern of everyone's,
which has created panic and paranoia all over the world. Panic and
paranoia are extremely valuable bargaining chips when struggling for world
domination; they keep the masses misdirected. Instead of people looking
for the origins and clandestine aspects of the virus, they are now
preoccupied with finding a cure. The smart money says that if we injected
the world's leaders with the virus, we would have a cure within about 10
minutes. I do not doubt for a second that a cure already exists and is
available to those in the know who might need it for personal use, but
until the powers that be decide that the rest of us are worthy, it will
remain elusive.
