What if it's proven that Covid came from a Wuhan lab?

If you have something so weird, strange or off-topic to post and think it doesn't belong in any other forum; you're probably right. Please put all your gormless, half-baked, inane, glaikit ideas in here. This might also be a place where we throw threads that appear elsewhere that don't belong ANYWHERE end up, instead of having to flush them. FORUM RULES STILL APPLY.

Logic these days: Orange Man still bad, so therefore it's only possibly that everything he says must be wrong, and the media hates Trump too, so they must to be right.
Are you for real? Barely anyone has mentioned Trump for months. Nobody cares anymore. And now you are saying that if anyone doesn't believe your conspiracy theory then they must be part of another conspiracy? :lol:
Check yourself dude, I know you grew up in a brain-washing cult but you're smart enough to know better. Good luck on your recovery.
My point is it's not breaking news at all, it was stated with a pretty high degree of certainty that it came from a lab a year ago from the US president, and was literally fact-checked as false/debunked.

You're such a smart guy, JB, and clearly not suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome, so can you explain why you think Politifact reversed their 'fact check' on a 'conspiracy theory' they had already ruled as debunked, if not for their obvious bias? I'd like your answer, as you're clearly not someone to lose their mind when it comes to mentioning Trump or anything, lol.

P.S. And really, my point has more to do with the media than it does with Trump, as I get why a lot of people are triggered by him. You're a great example of how many feel about him, so it doesn't take much logic to think that maybe it was obvious a year ago, but because it came from Trump, even scientists and journalists who feel the same you do refused to believe it then, and even went as far as to call it a 'debunked' conspiracy theory.

You are hilarious, still on about Trump. Nobody else has mentioned him for months. And you think I have some "Trump syndrome"? I'd pretty much forgotten about him. Keep it up though, it's amusing.

Good on you, as I know that was no easy feat, and I'm sorry to bring up long-forgotten and hurtful memories. :beer3:

It might hurt you as an American living in the US. For us foreigners living in Cambodia it doesn't matter one iota.

Show us the goods.

or it's just propaganda in my book

ffs - Is ANYbody gonna trust the citizenry with the facts? China, WHO, the President?
No wonder all kinds of theories and rumours are making a merry banquet of this crucial question.

Show us the goods! (please)
