You got it! In the midst of lockdowns and street chaos, the sudden disappearance of 30 or 40 million people in the USofA can be explained away to the dumbed down public with more than one lie served up dutifully by the scumedia. With lockdowns, discovering how many have vanished will take a while, during which time the lies will flow freely from the scumedia, as the electric grid is repaired..
It will probably be much more like the concentration camps of NAZI Germany. If ALL the jews at that time had been taken up in a kind of rapture, no one would know except some guards and some higherups in the NAZI party.
It’ll likely be parallel to that with christians.
