Big Blitz Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 Yup. We banned the research. He took it to China. This is all coming out now because the goals of China and the Democrats have been achieved. By the way he denied any of this was ever happening under oath but hey whatever.. Fauci (thus the DNC swamp creatures) and the CCP are locked at the hip. They coordinated the whole thing and had the vaccine ready to go - no one is ever going to convince me otherwise without overwhelming facts to the contrary. The media complicity in all this should be terrifying to everyone. They obeyed. They didn't ask questions of the protocols, the virus origins, the vaccine roll out (only when Trump said we could do it now they lost their ***t bc that was obviously to help him in the election!) school closures, and economic impacts they questioned only the people who would question them and this coup. Their goals were the same as CCP/DNC. If you spent the last year blaming Trump for Covid and have not yet been able to muster one hint of skepticism, criticism, or anger at Fauci and what they did here you might as well just move to China because you are officially just a subject not a citizen.

My position on this particular thread topic has always, always, been I care not what Woods take was, but the underlying analysis by a respected scientific author employed by the NYT merits serious consideration. you however, choose to make the discussion about James Woods and his opinions.. why I don’t know. So, read the article, form an opinion, and dispute or agree with Wades take. Or, don’t , and don’t hang around here cause you can’t defend your takes and you are intellectually dishonest. Honest folks can defend their positions with logic, not ad hominem attacks. but you are not honest, or smart, or intellectually curious, you are just interested in toting a party line.

What I think is that though he (Wade) may be right, what he did was weave certain facts into a tempting narrative. That’s all I see so far. Beats me where it originated but we should definitely be looking very hard for the bat population and/or leak. Narratives that make for good stories is all anyone wants these days so I’m sure it’s a big seller. Edited June 1, 2021 by John Adams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpberr Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 On 5/29/2021 at 5:42 PM, Big Blitz said: EXCLUSIVE: COVID-19 'has NO credible natural ancestor' and WAS created by Chinese scientists who then tried to cover their tracks with 'retro-engineering' to make it seem like it naturally arose from bats, explosive new study claims DailyMail.com exclusively obtained the new 22-page paper authored by British Professor Angus Dalgleish and Norwegian scientist Dr. Birger Sørensen set to be published in the Quarterly Review of Biophysics Discovery The study showed there's evidence to suggest Chinese scientists created the virus while working on a Gain of Function project in a Wuhan lab Gain of Function research, which was temporarily outlawed in the US, involves altering naturally-occurring viruses to make them more infectious in order to study their potential effects on humans According to the paper, Chinese scientists took a natural coronavirus 'backbone' found in Chinese cave bats and spliced onto it a new 'spike', turning it into the deadly and highly transmissible COVID-19 The researchers, who concluded that COVID-19 'has no credible natural ancestor', also believe scientists reverse-engineered versions of the virus to cover up their tracks 'We think that there have been retro-engineered viruses created,' Dalgleish told DailyMail.com. 'They've changed the virus, then tried to make out it was in a sequence years ago.' The study also points to 'deliberate destruction, concealment or contamination of data' in Chinese labs and notes that 'scientists who wished to share their findings haven't been able to do so or have disappeared' Until recently, most experts had staunchly denied the origins of the virus were anything other than a natural infection leaping from animals to humans Earlier this week, Dr. Anthony Fauci defended US funding of the Wuhan Institute of Virology, saying the $600,000 grant was not approved for Gain of Function research https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9629563/Chinese-scientists-created-COVID-19-lab-tried-cover-tracks-new-study-claims.html The story of COVID likely goes all the way back to SARS. That little critter got out and *kept* getting out of Chinese labs, until poof, it just disappears, never to be seen again. Still, as of 2021, no natural origin has been found. No one can explain why it just...vanished. The bigger question is why is the world so interested in manipulating the coronavirus, largely out of the public purview? To what end? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 AND IT SHOULD BE: If the Wuhan lab-leak hypothesis is true, expect a political earthquake. I am no expert on epidemics. Like everyone else I know, I spent the pandemic doing as I was told. A few months ago I even tried to talk a Fox News viewer out of believing in the lab-leak theory of Covid’s origins. The reason I did that is because the newspapers I read and the TV shows I watched had assured me on many occasions that the lab-leak theory wasn’t true, that it was a racist conspiracy theory, that only deluded Trumpists believed it, that it got infinite pants-on-fire ratings from the fact-checkers, and because (despite all my cynicism) I am the sort who has always trusted the mainstream news media. My own complacency on the matter was dynamited by the lab-leak essay that ran in the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists earlier this month; a few weeks later everyone from Doctor Fauci to President Biden is acknowledging that the lab-accident hypothesis might have some merit. We don’t know the real answer yet, and we probably will never know, but this is the moment to anticipate what such a finding might ultimately mean. What if this crazy story turns out to be true? The answer is that this is the kind of thing that could obliterate the faith of millions. And it should, because the institutions in question were not worthy of faith, and were themselves faithless. https://news.yahoo.com/wuhan-lab-leak-hypothesis-true-102749505.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
