          Name anything developed 100% by America in the last 39000 days on an odd calendar month by a scientist who’s name contains three vowels and the letter X which wasn’t funded by wealth stolen from the global south and on land that wasn’t stolen from victims of genocide.

        I love the COVID was a bioweapon line of argument because if you track it to it’s logical conclusion, China is capable of making bioweapons that America and the rest of the West are extremely shitty at defending against so China could just hit them again and again whenever it wanted with disproportionate losses for the West.

        It’s deliberately creating a conspiracy theory to show how much you suck.

          Not to mention the whole hitting themselves with it first thing just completely flying in the face of logic.

          And also that the response of every western government to the release of a bioweapon was to do fuck all and infect all their citizens with it and kill millions so that line would go up. With friends like these, huh?

              China has ranked first in the share of published papers since 2017, the top 10% most-cited papers since 2018 and the top 1% since 2019.
