Fort Detrick is an army base in Maryland with no research facilities related to medicine or contagious diseases.
lol idiot.
"It is home to the U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command (USAMRDC), with its bio-defense agency, the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID). It also hosts the National Cancer Institute-Frederick (NCI-Frederick)[3] and is home to the National Interagency Confederation for Biological Research (NICBR)[4] and National Interagency Biodefense Campus (NIBC).
In August 2019, its deadly germ research operations were shut down following serious safety violations, in particular relating to the disposal of dangerous materials.[5][6]"
Damn COVID19 was released on August 2019 from Fort Detrick, confirmed.
I’ll do some research on this. I haven’t really looked into fort detrick that much in all honesty.
But your saying you accept covid-19 was medically engineered in a lab and didn’t occur naturally right?
It’s still probably naturally occurring but the US military was in Wuhan in October 2019 for the World Military Games, right around the time covid first emerged. If you want to point fingers you can point them wherever you want. Jingoistic Americans are always going to be pointing them at China even though there’s no evidence it didn’t simply naturally cross species.
Not really about pointing fingers at people I think.
IF the covid-19 pathogen was created due to gain of function research.
It’s about holding the people responsible that created it. Because as you are well aware millions of people have died and millions of businesses have been destroyed as a result.
how do you prove it? and how do you then "hold responsible" whoever let it out? you cant. especially if it's china, you can't just bomb china or boycott china, they're too big and make 90% of our goods lol. but people just like to chest thump and blame china because 1) now you seem tough on china, and westerners have been trained to fear/hate china so it's popular to blame them, and 2) it absolves them of their own horrendous responses to it.
this thing came into human populations in 2019. 2019, 2020, 2021, now it's 2022.... dang that's a long time huh. youd think we could figure out some way to deal with it in that time but what if instead we just did nearly nothing while occasionally grumbling about nefarious red china and the ccp (who have kept covid spread to an absolute minimum in their country). if you see what im saying.
obviously tk lives in an entirely different media ecosystem where getting a vaccine means you love billionaires and getting covid means youre smart. it's tedious to actually try and debate this stuff because at this point our country is so stratified that it's clearly a waste of time, tk is locked into his position. he didnt like trump at first but then everyone else on the right liked him and now what do you know tk likes him too, and what do you know tk is saying exactly what everyone else is saying not just about vaccines but also about stocks and ooh hes even juts reposting videos he watched (while accusing others of being programmed lol)
but since you apparently got the vaccine and maybe are a little more ideologically coherent (general libertarian philosophy) i guess i should respond a little more.
Leave the city and they have none of those restrictions.
Ok is it hurting you?
You yourself always wear a N-95 mask wherever you go and are fully vaccinated. How do people in rural communities not wearing them affect you? Your not very likely to be infected even if you come in contact with someone unmasked as your mask should protect you.
Call me crazy but I think we as a society should do what we can to limit the spread of disease and death. To say we because who cares about anyone but yourself is poisonous individualism and leads to a failed state.
Ok your welcome your opinion.
I did ask you a question in the above post which you ignored.
How do people in rural communities not wearing them affect you? Your not very likely to be infected even if you come in contact with someone unmasked as your mask should protect you.
To your point about about my earlier statement about “individualism” in America. That is how America has functioned for decades and it has been that way since it’s founding in 1776 and last I checked the state hasn’t “fail” as you are claiming it will.
Nobody is saying for people not to wear N95 masks or get the vaccines. In fact all local governments recommend it for everyone to!
yeah america has had a fairly shitty philosophy from the outset, and this has led to atrocities like slavery and genocide and all sorts of shit, but it also has had its moments where theres growth and a "rising tide lifts all boats." however, just logically, as the rich get more power they get more influence, which allows them to control congress and the levers of government more and more, which allows them to strpi back anything that limits their own wealth. the end result is a society that becmoes increasingly unequal, and so to keep from being hanged in the street, they also have to feed more and more slop to the base, sell them hate against immigrants, sell them hate against china, sell thme hate against wacky sjws and teh Libs (and while liberals do of course suck, when you orient your beliefs around simply opposing them at all turns, because lol triggered or get wrekced or whatever, that means government becmoes incapable of doing even basic stuff).
In any case. it does hurt me when a disease rips through the entire population of my country, yes. What if this accelerates the spread of the disease everywhere leading to more and more people, including my loved ones, getting sick. What if this leads to new variants of the disease. What if this leads to interrupted supply chains and store shelves being empty. What if i have to go to the hospital and can't because all the beds are taken and they're festering plague hotels now? what if all the health care workers quit and go into new jobs as private on-call nurses and doctors for the rich? What if theres an exodus of public school teachers because theyre sick of being sent into poorly ventilated places with no mask mandates for low pay? No man is an island. We all live here together. individualism is a disease
