  The whole information wars thing becomes 4d chess very quickly. We could equally argue that dismissing this collection of facts (not just a theory), makes us a tool in someone else's toolbox as well. > all the intelligence services in the West who would have been on this like flies If I was trying to investigate this 'lab accident' theory, the last thing I want would be for the public to believe this. In a hypothetical scenario of a cover-up that would make those institutions double down on the destruction of evidence. However if they believe the public and other nations are accepting of a 'wet-market' theory then there is a chance that those institution would become complacent and leave behind information crumbles. edit: to me it's very telling that the US investigation looked at the 'wet-market' theory and the 'bio-engineer weapon' theory and completely ignored over the 'lab-accident' theory despite all the diplomatic cables discussion in the media, about concerns over lab safety and staff training
