The Trump administration continues pushing the lab leak theory.

That’s just wild. The one silver lining to T2 is that I’m not shocked by anything anymore. It’s still outrageous, but the surprise is gone.

    So the narrative is COVID was a dangerous lab leak - but also, you don’t have to wear a mask?

    Consistency is not a strong point of these dumbasses.

      If they thought clearly, they wouldn’t be prime targets for conspiracy theories and propaganda. We’re talking about people who can’t think rationally.

      It’s pretty standard to play both extremes simultaneously, and people just pick whichever they want to relate to at any given moment.

      eg.

      • (such-and-such group) are lazy, but also they are taking all the jobs.
      • They are stupid, but also have secret organisations that control the world, with mind-control, and lasers that control the weather, etc.
      • They are snowflakes obsessed with inclusiveness, but also they want (target-minority-group) to take over.
      • They are against free speech; and we must silence them.

      I’m sure others can think of more, and variations on those.
