Re: Gain of Function Research
That'd we'd be dead? Only if they deploy. But if you think there isn't a stockpile of chemical and biological weapons in all three of those countries you've mentioned then I've got some North Korean Olympic Gold Medals to sell you.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Re: Gain of Function Research
What about what I've posted here gives you any idea that I'd "think there isn't a stockpile of chemical and biological weapons in all three of those countries"?
You're talking nonsense.
I pointed out that they have the capability, so why are you confused?
Of course they wouldn't deploy. It would invite the most GodAwful retaliation with nukes:
The point you miss is that gain of function research has nothing to do with any need to make any more biological weapons.
They have these already.

Re: Gain of Function Research
Oh come on. Of course they use GOF in weapons development. That's not ALL it's used for, no more than nuclear physics is only used for weapons. No more than Newtonian physics is used only used in artillery targeting.
BUT - when they lie, repeatedly, and under oath, about funding Wuhan. When they lie, repeatedly, and under oath, about GOF research done on Corona. When they lie, repeatedly, and under oath, about it coming from a 'wet market', and not from a fucking lab leak from a third world level containment facility. I mean jesus christ, were you born yesterday? I'm missing nothing here, you, however, are drinking massive amounts of governmental Kool Aid, which is surprising coming from a South African, who should certainly have a better Government Bullshit Detector then you're exhibiting.
Did the ANC give you a new washing machine yet, or are you still waiting? I personally have given up on Eswatini being 'First World in 2022', but maybe I'm just jaded, eh?

Re: Gain of Function Research
It seems as though you object to gain of function research because it can and most probably is used to gain military advantages. If that is the case, you may as well object to all other research for the same reason. Kiss the James Webb telescope goodbye. And medical science. In fact, just about any and every scientific research done on the planet. We'll just have to consult Genesis for our cosmology and pray to God to make things better.laklak wrote: ↑Fri Jan 21, 2022 12:00 amOh come on. Of course they use GOF in weapons development.

As for rainbow being South African, where did you get that from? He only ever said he is African. Africa is a big continent, populated by 1.3 billion people in 54 countries. Some of those are islands in the Atlantic and Indian oceans.
For all we know, rainbow might be living in a postage stamp sized country with a population of less than 1.3 million. What's more, he definitely identifies as an African, but he might not have been born, nor grown up there. He never said one way or another.

Re: Gain of Function Research
It's an educated guess.
I don't object to GOF, I object to government obfuscation, lying, and overall general bullshit. Honestly, does anyone believe this shit happened because some fuckhead ate a fucking bat? Really?

Re: Gain of Function Research
Because African means South African? Because the eating of missionaries has been historically limited to South Africa? Because every African working in the chemical industry must live in South Africa?
A guess it is. Educated not so much.
While there is an obvious avenue for plausible deniability (reference to Rand Paul. Yeah. Right. You would put your objection to him this way. ), this looks like a sarcastically put objection to gain of function research:

Re: Gain of Function Research
Have you noticed how these 'concerns' are being pinned on Biden? Biden is lying, the Democrats are hiding the truth? And historically, retrospectively, they're being pinned on Obama? Do you not find that curious, or informative? We went through this with our settler from the frozen North, who, it seemed, had somehow become primed and triggered to equate the concept in general only with Democrat nefariousness and malignancy.laklak wrote:It's an educated guess.

Yup.
It's like saying that because I use a beaker in the lab, I must be making chemical weapons.

Well, this is an oddity, and no mistake. A thread in which I'm more closely aligned with Rainbow than with Lak.

I'm an equal opportunity curmudgeon. It's no more Biden's fault than it is Trump's. This is deep state, need to know shit.

Of course the right pins it on Biden, like the left pinned Mexican babies in cages on Trump.
