International Did COVID come from a Lab in China? US Energy Dept asserts it was a lab leak [megathread]

[Literally Bricked]

I wouldn't be surprised if American intelligence agencies released it at the Wuhan World Military Games.

And infect their own soldiers and their allies?

I guess that just leaves the media as mostly a suspect of being compromised by Chinese intelligence.

Nah, it has nothing to do with that. It's not a conspiracy. It's just the now endemic "we already decided what the truth is, let no one disagree" animal rearing its ugly head as usual. It's the thought police hard at work.. Do you think it was the CCP that made moderators on this very forum remove posts on the topic? I remember posting Luc Montagnier's comments etc, including an interview from youtube, over a year ago here, and some dimwit mod decided it was a "conspiracy theory" and deleted the posts. And the reason I remember it is that it was so recognizable. We see it all the time nowadays. No one should ever question what the community has decided is the truth. Send them to Gulag if they do, basically. The discussion must be silenced.

We don't need the CCP for this to be a very sick world. Here in the West we're doing quite well on our own at the moment.

Ya, like how the CIA used biological weapons on their own citizens and planned terrorist attacks against their own citizens and killed the president who wanted to disband them. They do some extremely shady and illegal stuff, even create false intelligence to justify starting actual wars that have killed millions of people so they'd be my first suspects. Or it could be completely separate to intelligence agencies as we know them and some extremely wealthy people (who aren't bound to one nation) did it on their own accord so they could profit from the pandemic. Both world wars were caused by super wealthy bankers who control society, I can't see why a pandemic would be off limits to them. Nobody was ever held accountable for any of the corrupt atrocities in our recent history so these conspiracies are obviously still happening. Blaming China just seems like the typical American propaganda route, it's the most unlikely imo.

CCP covering up the virus isn't even remotely a conspiracy theory. Back in November 2019, a doctor at the Wuhan hospital sent out a memo to colleagues warning them that the new SARS-like disease could be transmitted person to person. The next day, police stormed his home and demanded he publically recant his statement, or be imprisoned. He later died of Covid treating patients in February 2020.

WHO did not update its guidance to admit person-to-person transmission until late January. This doctor tried to give the world over 2 extra months to prepare for the pandemic, and China threatened to imprison him for it. Considering the global impact Covid had, I find it unbelievably amazing that this sort of censorship of doctors and scientists isn't considered the greatest international incident of our generation.

The ramifications are going to be felt for decades if not more. A generation of kids are going to grow up severely damaged from this.

If true sanction China, and cut into profits/cash on hand to create production facilities outside of China.

I still think every nation should tell China to fuck off with the debt the own from each nation to pay for damages.

 

[Ophydian]

China being responsible for the vírus WAS the most bombastic story, yet the midia shot that down from the get go. Why do you think that?

Because the source claiming it was suspect? Even a broken watch is right twice a day.

Pretty much everything Rand Paul said then. I agree with this explanation.

Suspect was shutting down any investigation while claiming the virus came from bat soup or crossed over pangolim, while never finding anything in Pangolin or the market. Good scientists pointed out the possibility of the lab escape but were swiftly ridiculed, it took an article from Nicholas Wade (pointing out how a group of scientists orchestrated a defense for the lab from the get go) for people to actually begin investigating the obvious.

No proof of the virus in the wild, no cross over animals found, but there were people sick in that lab before the pandemic broke out and that lab studies gain of function with corona-virus.

 

[AWilder]

That's some wild stuff

 

[1pedestrian]

It was a bioattack by the CIA against the Chinese population.

 

[Otto!]

Given how long it took for China to allow an independent inspection of their facilities they had plenty of time to scrub any evidence.

China has a lot of blood on their hands if this is true.

At this point, believing it did NOT come from a lab makes u a CT nut.

 

[blaseblah]

I thought it was supposedly proven that there was no manipulation of the virus by humans. I guess we will see what this study amounts to.

If it's true then we have to start regarding most of our institutions as compromised by Chinese intelligence. No other reason why they would promote all these pro-Chinese narratives regarding COVID, otherwise.

It does raise questions. There have been a lot of real scientists shutting down the man-made virus theory. If that is not the case they have some splaining to do.

You have no idea how much investment in narrative propaganda, and how much bought and sold influence that hurt America was at risk from “America first.”

 

[MoparOrNoCar]

I thought we were just supposed to take China and the WHO's word for it?

 

[shankmcgank]

'Memba when "Sherfronters" were called "racist" and told to take off our "tinfoil conspiracy hats" by the resident Libtards here?

I 'memba.

Imagine thinking this was "natural" and came from someone eating "bat soup". Indoctrinated by MSM and TDS, Libtards will believe anything.

I wonder how that crow pie tastes.

Dr Science, “you must do anything I tell you..” you

Wait, were there people who thought it wasn't?

Very interested to see how this develops. I’m running at a 50% accidental lab leak v 50% wet market, but it could be something unexpected! Hope the pc blinders are taken off and the scientists grind through this to the best explanation.
