    I’m not sure what the mass of downvotes and weirdness about this is. You’re acting like like I’m talking crazy and unrealistic. Lab leaks happen. Part of the reason similar research wasn’t done in the US for years was because we had several of them here.

    It’s a thing with two theories on how it happened. One is relatively simple and direct, the other has a lot of question marks over a large amount of distance. Neither of them are things with any sort of publicly released conclusive evidence.

    I have no idea why so many of you seem so emotionally attached to the certainty that a bat somewhere very far from that lab bit something? and pure chance happened to bring that something right to the lab’s doorstep and also by chance several researchers in that lab were some of the early people to fall ill. It seems like virtue signaling. Did I miss a memo that the actually more convoluted thing was somehow the thing that the just and virtuous must believe and all who understand how common lab leaks are must be seen as crazy and evil?

      Jfc this is a twisted worldview. I can’t imagine how you got there, but it’s pretty clear you’re not taking anything I say seriously at all because you keep repeating the same shit and now this nonsense. Have a nice day - on someone else’s time.

        Take some time reading research papers on the possible suspected origins of Covid-19. You very clearly haven’t. The mass of downvotes I’m getting for simply saying the simplest theory is most likely the correct one without a single person being able to actually provide any logical reason for those downvotes screams of groupthink. People downvoting a thing because they believe it’s a sign of a scary Republican or someone not believing the accepted thing.

        There is absolutely nothing about the natural origin theory that has been proven. The only thing twisted here is the mass insanity of people who can’t point to any actual good reason they’re so adamantly defending it and seeing anyone who doesn’t as being twisted and stupid. You even accused me of misusing Occam’s Razor when it very definitely points straight at a simple, common lab leak.

        If you can’t respond with actual evidence to back up the way you’ve been acting, then there is no reason to respond. If you can’t show that lab leaks aren’t common and many things show one wouldn’t have been possible here, you’re screaming at a stranger on the internet and treating them like shit for no actual reason. It’s been baffling and unhinged from the start, because that’s what you’ve been doing.
