Annoying that early on even suggesting this as a possibility labeled you as a crazy, racist, conspiracy freak.
Hopefully in the years to come people are more open minded.

Different period in the pandemic, rather than a shift in mindset from whether pointing fingers without evidence is helpful.

When I first heard that idea I thought is was a conspiracy theory myself but then things like the Defuse proposal leaked out.
