Maybe a lot have be planted over a widespread area in a very short amount of time for the effect to really take hold. Of course when you are willing to enter the kook fringe such scenarios are easy to dream up.

don’t plant them? I think you better not open the package and touch them.

Is merely opening the package a danger I wonder?

I made a joke about Day of the Triffids and the Chinese seeds this afternoon. Man, that was one creepy movie. The Brits had a knack for putting a bit of horror in their sci fi, didn’t they?

I hear the Chinese are calling for the return of all the pandas on “loan” to our zoos now that the “lease” is up. Dammit! They are going to take all our zoo secrets back to China, and copy our zoos! They will be flooding our market with their cheap imitation zoo animals!

If they were contaminated with plant virus, intended to damage food crops, even handling these packages could be a problem.

I burned the package that we got. Haven't come down with any weird symptoms yet.

If China wanted to do a first strike, how hard would it be to contaminate some sort of food stock that we import in bulk with ricin? Within days of being delivered, you’d hear of COVID-19 symptoms spiking, then thousands dropping dead. It would take days to figure it out. By then you’d have killed a significant number of Americans.

You could do it fentanyl but the deaths would happen so quickly the source would be figured out and secured before too many die.

This should be declared a national emergency. There will always be someone who will fail to get the notices that have trickled out and plant the seeds.

“So, if you plant them where it is cold in winter I can’t see a problem.”

Yep, your attitude is what will do us in. Just how in the hell do you know what is in those seeds. Do you think the Chinese Communists were prompted by Christian motives to mail them here?

ebay allows sellers direct from china to sell on usa ebay and ship directly from china. Super cheap but takes weeks to get here.

Alternate theory. Chinese people afraid of the three gorges dam collapsing and wiping out half or more of their food supply and hoping us nice Americans will send back food that comes from the seeds.

Makes as much sense as any other theory

When the Three Gorges Dam breaks there will be up to 400 million less mouths to feed.

We have received 3 of these seed pkgs from China. They are marked “beads”. Opened one to see what it was and they looked like flower seeds. I didnt open the other two, just stuck them in a ziploc baggie and contacted authorities.
