It's hard to blame racists about that when you had scientists writing baseless bullshit letters about how it couldn't possibly have come from a lab, despite not having gathered any evidence for the (otherwise plausible) natural emergence theory. I think people had some serious conflating issues with "it didn't come from a lab" meaning "it definitely came from a dog eating wet market" or some shit. SARS is already out in the wild in bats. They're all riddled with it. You know how we fucked ourselves by spreading it around until we got Delta variant?

Tyranthraxus 08/05/21 1:31:41 AM #8:	Mr Hangman posted... I think that's misleading. A disease already infecting many humans may mutate into variants that are more viral among humans, and there's selective pressure for it to do so. A disease among a bat population, of which most variants are unable to infect humans, is not as likely to produce a variant that does. Obviously it can and has happened, but most such mutations will never migrate to humans and just die. The fact that it's been mutating among bats for longer is not really significant. I mean we already have an example of this in rabies. Rabies also has several variants. Several of these are significantly less severe. One specific variant is transmissible to dogs, however, and that variant has a 100% fatality rate in humans. So a bat gives rabies to a dog, a dog bites a human, human dies. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv <cite>Tyranthraxus posted [p:956791054] in Remember t...

brestugo 08/05/21 7:15:39 PM #27:	Mr Hangman posted... Money was not central to Wade's article. Reading this response, it's off to a bad start by calling Wade's article a "conspiracy theory". At no point does it allege any group conspired to do anything. That's not just a semantic quibble - a big part of why conspiracy theories are easy to dismiss is that it's difficult for groups of people to keep a secret and unlikely that there would be some shared malicious intent among multiple parties. It makes a far point that it was unfair of Wade to call the letter "an opinion piece", but it's a minor point. I'm not impressed by how much this response complains about Wade making ad hominem attacks while having no restraint whatsoever on doing the same. Then it goes deep into the biology arguments, which I'm not competent to assess. But I'm also not inclined to take the word of "experts" who insisted it wasn't airborne, that masks don't work, and have on multiple occasions been caught telling manipulative lies hoping to steer people's behavior rather than trusting them with an honest answer.
