But knowledge can also be misused. Those are exactly the people most capable to deceive you (if they want) (e.g. Peter Daszak)
- fastaguy88 5y agoHow has Peter Daszak deceived us?
- tomp 5y agoHe strongly pushed the "natural origin" theory and branded "lab escape" theory as a conspiracy theory, despite knowing (and without revealing) that the lab was involved exactly in that kind of virus research (in order to conceal his involvement).
- fastaguy88 5y agoSince I have not seen any evidence that directly supports the lab escape theory, I do not feel deceived. It’s a pretty big jump from not disclosing some proposed experiments that may or may not have been done to lying about likely origins of the virus.
