"Memory hole," is such a brilliant, useful concept. These days I have been amusing myself by reading books and articles from before 2020 about virus research and it's pretty clear that, historically, lab leaks have always been pretty common. There is nothing unusual about them. The last human being to die from smallpox was the victim of a lab leak.

But suddenly, in the wake of the manufactured "Pandemic," lab leaks are astronomically unlikely and can't possibly be considered, except, apparently, by white supremacists. The credulous stenographers of the corporate media, besides being credulous, and stenographers, can't remember more than 18 months back.

As for conspiracy theories, the one actual conspiracy that has been documented was that among epidemiologists and other scientists to cover up the possibility that one (or more) of their own fumbled the ball in Wuhan.

That is a (fucking) brilliantly written line, Mitch.

Can't remember 18 months? They start getting hazy after 3 months.

Christian Nationalists are also notoriously careless with their gain-of-function experiments.
