Then link it unedited. He's an asshole, I get it. But half of what is said about him is false (pee pee tapes?) that Americans don't give a darn about what is true.

Good for you! Myself, I agree with you that Chamberlain is a great model to understand Trump. Pretends to be a pacifist while buying time to strengthen the national economy to fight a big war everyone knows is inevitable because everyone wa

Of course he is, he's a narcissist. A narcissist whose legitimate orders were disobeyed by the military and who has been shot at with the security state high on many people's suspect list. A cagey narcissist. But there was a ver

Agreed. ODS was pretty bad. CDS was very self destructive for the GOP. BDS helped give Jr a second term.

How interesting. The UK is the only western country Ive encountered that gave this shot to kids in the 80s. Why is this?

You got the BCG vaccine in the UK? Are you sure? I got it when I was a toddler in the late 80s and I still remember the excruciating pain and have the scar to show for it. I grew up in the third world. I have never met a Westerner with this

The partisan thing was so weird. Im right wing adjacent, and I remember that early on in the pandemic being concerned about COVID19 was a right wing thing. It was all so stupid.

I understand why China would spin it. I understand why the NIH (who appears to have funded this) would want to spin this. What was in it for CNN and MSNBC to spin this as racist when, IMHO, blaming COVID19 on culinary habits is far more rac

Specifically, we now have internal emails dating to 2020 from the CDC (NIH? Who remembers, it's been literally two years since this came out) about how it was probably a lab leak and then about the importance to bury the lab leak theo

You're right of course. This gentleman works in a US national lab, graduated top of his class in a top Chinese school and has friends that, at the time, worked in the Wuhan lab. He, while very proud of being Chinese, was very critical

What I never understood about the politicization of the lab leak theory is this: How is it more racist and Sinophobic to support the lab leak theory vs the wet market one? The lab leak theory has single individuals messing up. The wet marke

Actually under the original Trump administration. The intel community never dismissed the lab leak theory. The discrediting of it was 100% a psyop

In fact, if a new flu came out from Atlanta I would immediately suspect an Emory grad student working in the CDC labs. (Not to knock Emory students, I love them, but Emory has a relationship with the CDC and grad students can be cavalier)

I had a Chinese colleague in January of '20 saying it was obviously a leak. I hadn't even heard of Wuhan before, and he told me there is a bio lab there.

Who's "they"? You just grabbed a bunch of different arguments you disagree with and then bunched them all together with the lab leak. Btw, I wouldn't remind people of "horse dewormer" debacle I were you - you c
