This effort will increase the number of hate crimes no doubt about that

    edit: this is also the reason fauci always looks so god damned uncomfortable

    And so, in order to hide his direct complicity in this (unevidenced) theory, he instead does everything in his power to bring further attention to the lab in Wuhan... because?

      neither fauci nor the CDC have done that, only a former head of the CDC. also nobody is hiding anything, he approved GOF research funding for the Wuhan lab and I'm sure you can pull up public records about this

      ask this: why didn't trump push the lab leak theory harder? isn't it weird that he didn't seize on that?

        Trump has the attention span of a gnat, motherfucker probably doesn't even remember China exists as a country until somebody reminds him of it. He didn't push the lab leak theory because nobody reminded him there was even a lab to begin with.

        Like I get it and all but there's literally no evidence for this theory. If, and I want to put a big ol' stress on the IF there, this leaked from a US funded lab, you don't think China wouldn't be all over that shit? Comrade Chen would be out there bodying half the state department on Twitter if the virus came from a US-backed lab in China.

        ask this: why didn’t trump push the lab leak theory harder? isn’t it weird that he didn’t seize on that?

        because he knew about it, obviously.

        Nov 2019: Trump has a mysterious unscheduled hospital visit. Is released with a wrist bruise (indicating IV insertion)
        Feb 2020: Trump is caught speaking in private tapes about how the virus is super deadly
        March 2020: Trump denies the danger of the virus, and doesn't wear a mask for 7 months
        October 2020: after not wearing a mask for 7 months, Trump supposedly catches covid

        deductivists will say that nothing happened here.
        inductivists will say that Trump was injected with some type of preventatory medicine, which is why he kept shilling in public for the virus being harmless, while admitting otherwise in leaked private tapes, and also why he felt comfy being maskless for the rest of the year.
