Man

Throughout history humanity (hitherto “man”) has controlled it's numbers by the regular destruction of significan percentages of breeding males.

Recorded history and, indeed, recent archeology of pre-history, demonstrates this.

Mainly man has done this through war but regular indiscriminate killing has also occurred, usually under a pretext of the killees being slightly different than the killers.

In very recent times, however, man (particularly girly men led by the congenitally insane i.e. women) in many parts of the globe has upset this age-old balance by stopping war, restricting those breeding-age male killings to a few motor-vehicle incidents – and they're trying to prevent those.

The same people have also created conditions that sees people live far beyond their productive years – for no reason at all.

Nature needs to redress this balance.

To do so it has created a cold. A virus.

With this virus, instead of killing the breeding age (Nature is a nice entity) Nature has decided to kill the old, the infirm and the useless – and how more useless can you get than being a cruise-boat tourist?

Man (in fact part of nature but he regularly forgets this fact) has embraced natures plan to help him remain on the planet.

Has he fuck!

Man instead has closed up shop and decided to retreat to the middle-ages in an attempt to thwart (or fool) nature.

To ban fun, excitement and that most human of activities, forming groups. The luddites think they've won.

It won't work!

Not just because man is a social animal, designed by nature to form those groups but man needs these groups to continue his existance.

Those groups are important, those groups are indeed how man has advanced to the top of the food chain.

The cold Nature has created is designed to live for a very long time, to become part of existence that could very possibly see man reverting (in main) back to his allotted three score and ten years.

This, in my humble opinion, is a good thing – now to address that problem of the excess of breeding-age males and the fact that the virus is, in fact, not even killing enough to out-do the motor-vehicle.
