In many cases yes.
I can disprove your theory easily
There are of course natural poisonings as well.
like springs high in arsenic etc
Why would diseases be created and targeted at their own civilisation, especially diseases that do not work as population control?
In the first place they served as a mechanism for the ruling class to regulate population levels. Any symptom generated within the population can be medicalized to become lethal..
The diseases are often generated passively... through pollution of one sort or another.
The ruling powers of Europe (nobles and the church) would not want to spread the Black Death because the Medieval Warm Period supplied them with a massive labour boost via crop increase. When the Black Death happened all their labor (peasants) was lost and they demanded more pay the labor shifted to towns where the king had more control.
Crumbling feudalism
Right, so explain why anyone can go and try to seek medical help for disease?
Reeee
Mobile why
Alright, @mixmasterJ has been warned for '**Bad word usage**'.
oopsy
i believe in basic medicine such as fixing broken bones and such
@mixmasterJ acknowledge my point
But treating disease?
but the majority of pharmacy historically and to the present day is designed in such a way that it will amplify the problems of "disease"...
Right so explain why I could never sleep before getting my sleeping meds?
Couldn't tell ya. And I don't mean to say pharmacy has no practical purpose.
So you will ignore me?
@Hamburger Guy ok so basically flat earthers
That was irrelevant
My focus is epidemical diseases.... ie smallpox the plague etc etc.
Flat earther are irrelevant
@mixmasterJ and i explained that the ruling powers would never want to do this for "population control".
lolé
ah sorry
but they certainly would...
Did you read my text?
Think about this.. medicine up until 100 years ago was dangerous and increased disease injury and mortality.
Bloodletting and insane dosages of various poisons
That was simple human error
For thousands of years, it FUNCTIONED as a tool of depopulation
in the common viewpoint this is... accidental
People will think the same 1000 years from now about our chemo and radio therapy
I don't believe it was accidental but rather by design
That doesn't mean anything
Mobile why
It made me spam
@mixmasterJ depopulation was a bad thing for ruling powers
