makeasnek on Nostr: There's far from scientific consensus on this, both a lab leak and natural crossover ...
There's far from scientific consensus on this, both a lab leak and natural crossover (which happens ALL THE TIME) are viable explanations. We likely will never have the evidence available to say for 100% certain. But this whole "the lab leak is a russian psyop" and response in terms of people online being censored for posting "misinformation" is a great talking point to use against liberals who want social media platforms or the government to be the social media police. What is "true" changes over time, we need a way to communicate in society that is cognizant of that.
