This is going to be a big thread about climate change, energy, and @TheExpanseWR. Literal representation, analogues, creative decisions in general - I want to talk about it all! Will post my own thoughts, other ppl's tweets, etc.

It's been in the show from day one. The opening titles of season show

- Icebergs breaking free
- The statue of liberty's little island being built up after it's coated in water
- S4,5 sea level rise in Chesapeake bay


It's in the show too. "The gulf of Denmark". Old Boston turned into the square tops of buildings barely visible. Sea walls lock out the ocean. The show is set in 2350: climate change is driving people off Earth.

The Drosten RT-PCR test is fabricated in a way that each country and laboratory perform it differently at too high Ct and that the high rate of false positives increases massively due to cross-reaction with other (corona) viruses in the "flu

Even asymptomatic, previously called healthy, people are tested (en masse) in this way, although there is no epidemiologically relevant asymptomatic transmission. This means that even healthy people are declared as COVID

Deaths within 28 days after a positive RT-PCR test from whatever cause are designated as deaths WITH COVID. This means that other causes of death are reclassified as
