      Polio is still prevalent in Nigeria, Pakistan and Afghanistan. Fun fact! There is widespread distrust of vaccination efforts in Afghanistan and Pakistan because the CIA orchestrated a fake Hep B vaccination campaign to collect DNA and locate :joker-laden:

      Edit: it was Hep B not Polio vaccination

        and it would've cost them almost nothing to actually vaccinate people while doing it instead of fake bullshit

          When "friendly" AI is created - at best it will have a CIA-like mindset.

          Tech person: "AI why do you insist on Plan 2? Plan 1 could save 100,000s of lives."

          BigBrain220IQ: "Plan 2 is 0.7% cheaper. And the lives of people in that country are of no value to the US."

      No, we only got rid of it for white people, thus insuring the suffering of POC, and also that polio would be guaranteed to have a comeback!!!
