    In this time of universal deception during the last few decades, there are many instances in which with the passage of time, conspiracy theories have turned out to be conspiracy facts. :angel:

    Brett Weinstein is an Evolutionary Biologist, and he believes the virus was enhanced in a lab. Here he explains why he thinks so.

    Joe Rogan was a Bernie Sanders supporter and Bret Weinstein is a progressive liberal.

    A good interview, but I think he's naive regarding the lockdown. Maybe he's right, but I think the lockdown just delays the inevitable.

    “Dark web intellectual”?

    I agree with you on the lockdown. Early in that video, he cited New Zealand as an example that a hard lockdown worked. Since that video was recorded, Covid has made a comeback in the country. So, if a 7-week, very harsh lockdown didn't kill the virus, then it appears to be here for the long run no matter what, unless there is a vaccine some day.

    Just do whatever your party and the government tells you to do and think. Never question the partisan authoritarian narrative. Never listen to alternative theories. You'll be okay.

    Poor choice of words.

    They got rid of the disease, and like every other place that was successful at controlling the disease; (which we have not) they relaxed and it snuck back in.

    I just saw a U Penn study on the news, the prediction is 2500 infections and 2 student deaths by Thanksgiving.

    So much winning!!

    This disease has one hell of a learning curve.

    The humans seem incapable of learning the lessons of history.

    Except for Sweden.

    Sure, I'll give you that, but this one won't be, because the genome sequencing of the virus has already eliminated any and all possibility that this virus was man-made or otherwise interfered with. Sorry, but that pizza parlor where supposedly there was a Clinton pedophilia ring operating from its basement... doesn't even have a basement. The conspiracy theory about the SARS-CoV-2 is just as meritless. And again, according to the administrator of this site, posts suggesting that the SARS-CoV-2 was man-made or tampered with, belong to the Conspiracy Theories subforum, not to the COVID-19 subforum. Why aren't you following the rules established by the admin of this forum?

    Here, this is the Admin's rule for this:

    Posts related to purposeful infection / manufacture belong in the Conspiracy subforum

    Bikers don't learn ****. Hell, they wouldn't ride motorcycles if they did. You don't go for bread and milk on a death wish if you really care whether you live or die. The same applies to flying small planes, some things are flat out dangerous no matter what.

    Several virologists, including the Nobel Laureate Luc Montagnier of France disagree with you.

    The official story is a conspiracy theory too. Should we discuss that in the CT section?

    There is a huge difference between a group or coalition deciding to voluntarily absent themselves from a shared space in order to highlight their vital and underappreciated roles....and a group encouraging another group to go away. The first is a forceful call to consciousness, which is, of course, crippling to the logic of oppression. The second is a show of force, and an act of oppression in and of itself.


    This is why he has been told to hate the man.... He is a good lemming....https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bret_Weinstein

    "Hinting" that whites should leave campus for a day to " talk about race issues" can be seen as problematic..

    By and large, yes, history is an undiscovered country.

    But Sweden is not what you think..

    I don't know which morons you're referring to in your post. A day without an insult from Lesh would be like a day without sunshine, though! :)

    Do you have problems following threads?

    Or following the "logic" of your own posts?

    Rogan and the "Dark web intellectual" were obviously the morons being referred to

    Yes, but the thread is about Sturgis bikers. So I wasn't sure if you were calling left-wingers or right-wingers morons, or simply screaming insults because you were overdue. Thanks for clarifying which morons you meant this time. :)

    Read up on the intellectual dark web and tell us why you think they are morons. I would posit these are some of the most intelligent people on the planet. Many are progressives. One is a prominent feminist. While Rogan may be the least cerebral of the group, he’s no slouch. I doubt many know more about the athletic abilities of the human body. Even Harris who I tend to disagree with a lot I have to admit is a brilliant thinker. Morons? Nope. Quite the opposite.

    And the dark web business? The thing they have in common is their belief that thought and ideas should not be silenced but discussed openly. Even controversial ideas. What’s moronic about that?
