The Collective Delirium

One of the manifestations of COVID is that the sufferer may become delirious. Apparently, this disease has gripped just about everybody, because the world is dancing over the precipice right now. From India about to fight Red Chinese aggression, to the West in a suicidal frenzy to destroy its own patrimony, as humanity, we are coming apart at the seams. I do not know how much the pandemic influences events, but I suspect a malign hand might have found a way to capitalize on the disease once it was realized how virulent and destructive it was. That same hand might be ready now to grab Taiwan and a bit of India, if the rest of the world permits it.
