View submission: Curtis Yarvin Says Democracy Is Done. Powerful Conservatives Are Listening.
I I find it incredible that you’re so drunk on your propaganda that you don’t realize how full of shit you are.
They *have* found the SARS-CoV-2 analogue viruses in Laotian bats. BANAL-52, BANAL-103, and BANAL-236. These viruses provide insights into the likely zoonotic origins of the virus.
Conservatives aren’t watching reality, because they’d rather invent lab leak stories that allow them to blame China.

That’s not what that study said at all, actually (I’m assuming you meant https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-022-04532-4[1]). They have found viruses that could be progenitors to SARS-CoV-2 in bats in Indochina, but everyone already thought that was likely the case (and bat coronaviruses were studied at the Wuhan lab). It doesn’t mean the lab wasn’t the source, and US agencies are split on whether it was or wasn’t from the lab. The lab origin hypothesis has gone from being discarded as unlikely back in 2020 and 2021 to being something educated professionals now disagree on. Both you and the person you replied to are up to it in your own sources of propaganda.
