Or, perhaps they have some relevant experience and are ahead of the curve and are trying to draw attention to the subject, only to be lambasted by those who are not ahead of the curve, because they don't have the relevant experience, and have no idea about the subject?
You know, the guys who believe whatever BS the farthest right wing influencers peddle well before any evidence actually turns up. Like, I’m willing to say, it’s possible that some of those theories could possibly turn out to be true, but the people who believe them before any actual evidence are just idiots.
It was the same thing with the lab leak theory- they massively damaged that theory by being loudly racist and jumping to the conclusion before there was evidence.
