Using the traditional question “cui bono” (to whom is it a benefit?), why would such a thing be faked?
- onion2k 5y agowhy would such a thing be faked It's impossible to answer a question like that without sounding like an Internet nutjob, but intelligence forces around the world have been tracking disinformation campaigns about vaccines, politics, etc for a long time. Here's a reputable source from this year - https://www.wsj.com/articles/russian-disinformation-campaign-aims-to-undermine-confidence-in-pfizer-other-covid-19-vaccines-u-s-officials-say-11615129200 https://www.wsj.com/articles/russian-disinformation-campaign... The actual purpose of them is beyond me. I simply don't know why Russia, or China, or any nation state would do that sort of thing. It does happen though, so no doubt they have their reasons. "Because they can" maybe.
