It also comes between gamma and epsilon. It's just counting up.

If it were messaging, I'd think they'd instruct the media to make more "change" puns on Barry's old campaign material.

But why are they pushing this Delta one so hard?

Marketing is all the media knows. Big Pharma is approximately all advertising spending now, judging by the few ads I see.

Rebranding the virus as a new, hot threat (now with more cases!) directly monetarily benefits news agencies. Good thing that isn't a conflict of interest.

Indeed!

Typically I like to avoid the speculative woo, but it's not just about me - it's about the ruling class who often employ their occult symbology whether they actually buy into it or not, so I like being aware of some of their fringe symbolic stuff, even if I don't go deep into it.

Ultimately, I was just wondering why they were focusing so much on the Delta variant specifically.

They want to bring about "change".

Delta is comparable to the Latin d. That is why in mathematics and most other sciences it is usually used to define some kind of difference.

Since Mathematics doesn't know time in statements itself unless defined as such : Imho without any further explanation it stands for what it is, difference. Change is difference over elapsed time which is is included in difference but surely not every difference is a change.

I don't think epidemiologists are obsessed with this delta. They just counted up the Greek alphabet. But maybe some news-outlets are. Possibly when we get to the next variant of the the virus it could also be inferred then that they are obsessed with Epsilon.

Imo the fact that they stopped calling virus variants after the country in which they may or may not have emerged in the first place is way more interesting because this at least tries to stop clowns like Trump to use the virus as a rhetorical weapon in their foreign politics.

I wish they'd skip all the foreplay and just get to the OMEGA VARIANT!

Since vaccines aren't working in the way they expected and infections numbers once again are on the rise, we possibly will get there. But i don't believe in a sort of final variant of this virus. I rather believe that this virus will follow us through our coming times and evolve then and again. Imo it will become like the influenza virus but for vulnerable people they will produce a "new" vaccine every year or so.

The panic and media attention on this topic will decrease over time as it always does. Imagine being a "reporter" (for buzzfeed or smthg alike since these kind of sites sling all the bs) and having nothing to write your clickbaits about. :)

And foreplay shouldn't be skipped. In fact historians will maybe one day be able to conclude what actually happened if (and only if) there is a record of all this "foreplay".

LOL

They're working exactly as intended.

The panic and media attention on this topic will decrease over time as it always does.

Also LOL.

Yeah. Ok. I don't follow you here. From what i read i conclude the virus spreads even through the vaccinated population and more and more people are realizing this fuelling well-founded scepticism that no money can relieve. That is why even though the vaccines are now widely available in most western countries the numbers of vaccinated people seems to converge to an upper bound. So less and less people are vaccinated voluntarily because most people that wanted a dose or two already got them. Of course this holds only true as long as there aren't (any harder) sanctions. And there are protests: In Germany and in France to name a few. Clearly this is a seasonal thing because relatively speaking the infection numbers are down and it is summer so of course more people are inclined to go out and actually protest.

And on war: I wouldn't define this as a war at this point in time with a very simple argument: When people are confronted with a new situation they got three alternatives:

  • evade the situation (so far this is possible for the infection and the vaccination in most western countries, afaik and assuming these are the kind of persons who actually go through with their plans)

  • change the situation: Protests; not be vaccinated even though they pull off their 24/7 advertisment shitshow for the vaccine and so on ; change of job or social environment, which i suppose is actually happening right now more often than perceived (because this is rather seldom polled or reported, afaik). This can be more or less forced (e.g. if you work in health-care and won't get the vaccine for any reason) i admit. But i also believe the crowd seeing this "pandemic" as a chance for personal or professional "reorientation" or "change" doesn't consists only of me. Imo change is a part of life, for the worse or for the better.

  • accept the situation in different degrees. This means going with what comes, not compliance. Of course you gotta be more and more careful what to say to whom but in most of USA (and ex-GDR :-D ) you are nurtured with this skill anyway from the cradle on.

I think i can predict with relative certainty that the "elite" at this point in time isn't anywhere near to realize how these changes the "working" class undergoes right now will bite them in their hind parts in the future.

When you grew up in a dictatorship, like i did in GDR, it is quite easy to realize that the same shitshow GDR media yelled (mostly) into the void - about people not fleeing GDR e.g - now returned (given: on some crack (with algorithms, micro-targeting and corporate surveillance)), it is quite easy to adopt to this new environment.

But even if you did not grow up in a dictatorship i believe every-time you watch something, you don't accept (for any reason) most people now are at a point where they just switch the channel or swype somewhere else.

To not overcomplicate this argument, in a nutshell : "You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot force it to drink."

And this analogy goes especially well regarding the aspect that the horse simply has more mass than the human leading it. The people seeing through these manipulation tactics of corporate kleptocracy "elite" are still bigger in numbers. At least so far, i suppose. Otherwise mass-media and the political elite wouldn't (already) switch calibre from small (24/7 corona-shitshow on most channels) to bigger (vaccinations checks, e.g.).

There are only two things in this ongoing shitshow that make me somewhat sad:

  • The ongoing, constant scaremongering clearly furthers divides our societies even more than they already are. I believe the circle of people you actually trust with something is getting smaller for most of us right now.

  • Since now more and more sanctions are threatened or imposed on people who don't comply with this or that in arguments or in everyday behaviour the "free" internet is finally in its last minutes and psychological and social problems are on the rise. These both affect all of us way more severly than the shitshow playing on the screens.

Delta-v (more known as "change in velocity"), symbolized as ∆v and pronounced delta-vee, as used in spacecraft flight dynamics, is a measure of the impulse per unit of spacecraft mass that is needed to perform a maneuver such as launching from or landing on a planet or moon, or an in-space orbital maneuver. It is a scalar that has the units of speed. As used in this context, it is not the same as the physical change in velocity of the vehicle.

As a simple example, take a conventional rocket-propelled spacecraft which achieves thrust by burning fuel. The spacecraft's delta-v is the change in velocity that spacecraft can achieve by burning its entire fuel load.

Delta-v is produced by reaction engines, such as rocket engines, and is proportional to the thrust per unit mass and the burn time. It is used to determine the mass of propellant required for the given maneuver through the Tsiolkovsky rocket equation.

For multiple maneuvers, delta-v sums linearly.

For interplanetary missions, delta-v is often plotted on a porkchop plot, which displays the required mission delta-v as a function of launch date.

You've taken it to the max q.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

That's very cool, I'd never heard of max q.

[–]JasonCarswell[S] 2 insightful - 3 fun2 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

If your spaceship can get past max-q then usually it's easy sailing until re-entry.

A conspiracy forum I was reading, claims the next variant name, removes the base line of the triangle, representing the removal of the masses. Symbology will be their downfall.

Fascinating.

Link to share?

I normally provide links. But was struggling to recall this one....

Thanks! I'll share it on Facebook too. It might give me more cred if it comes true. :P Not everyone goes deep and some still have faith in some of the systems.

Odd that I came up with this too. I'm really not into the woo, but know they do use their symbols, so this kind of legitimizes my far out theory, though I didn't take it that far.
