It is getting harder and harder to believe that you are participating in this conversation in good faith, and this post is dead anyway so this will be my last reply.

The argument was over whether Covid-19 evolved naturally and was spread to humans from a colony of wild bats or was engineered at the Wuhan Institute of Virology and was subsequently leaked. The leak theory was, in those unenlightened times, considered "right wing propaganda".

This is the article in question if you care to read it: https://www.zerohedge.com/health/man-behind-global-coronavir...

The article says that the outbreak probably originated from the lab, and this is the guy that is capable of engineering it. It then goes on to list papers he published and research he was involved in. That list of papers, and the job posting cited in the article coupled with the geographic origin of the infection being colocated with the lab sure look like evidence to me. Circumstantial evidence, sure, but evidence all the same. Talk about mischaracterization.

Again, you are failing to discern between 'covid leaked from a lab' and 'covid was engineered in a lab.' You're all too happy to take a victory lap because the current administration suggests the first scenario is possible, when in reality what Zero Hedge was pushing was a very different narrative. That's intellectually dishonest.
