So do you think selectively editing my quotes makes you look better? Just lop off the end of a sentence, no big deal right? Now that you painted yourself into a corner it's not you who is mistaken, but "neither of us knows for sure".

To pretend there would be no political interference in this subject regardless of its source is just demonstrating suicidal amounts of naivete. Ignoring common sense and known established science only because some one who you think holds authority told you so is how cultists live, not free, thinking, people. There is no doubt these events are being taken advantage of to create more authoritarian control systems much like was done after 9/11/01, using the disaster to systematically strip rights and privacy. This is happening all over the world, not just in the US.

There is clear motive for certain organizations and individuals to want this kind of event. The idea that it could have been an intentionally started pandemic is not something outside of scientific fact. As with any investigation of a potential crime, you are looking first at the means, motive, and opportunity a perpetrator might have for taking the specified action. The whole point of the response to the article  "proving it could not be made in a lab" was to make it clear that it doesn't exclude these other methodologies, and is making overly exclusive claims based on the types of tests done looking for direct genetic engineering.
That being the means are there, the motive is there, and the opportunity is there.

This has created some very big economic shock waves for one. Are you saying it is impossible to imagine that some one might do something like this if they were to make billions of dollars on the foreknowledge of these events? What do these events acheive as far as national level controls of an increasingly unruly population worldwide? How do these events effect international relations? What does this mean for our privacy? Our bodily autonomy? Our livelihoods? Are you saying among all of those massive changes there is NO MOTIVE for some one, or some organizations to perpetrate this on the world population? You have fun waiting being told what you are approved to think of. I will use my own critical thinking skills, thank you.

Okay, so zero evidence. You have no evidence that backs up your theory that this disease is "likely a bio-weapon." Even though this section of the forum has never been a bastion of critical thought - people don't exactly come here to get the latest information about an issue - I just think its irresponsible to be pushing a divisive narrative about a sensitive topic when there is absolutely no evidence behind it.
