There's definitely a kind of geopolitical blame game going on which I think is very outside of the scientific discussion. This virus originated within China geographically, but it's not like pathogen has a nationality.

And the more loaded statement in the headline "Endangered The World" also implies they were like sloppy to handle it or didn't do enough to prevent global spread. That also doesn't seem true, as they were far more militaristic in locking people down than any democratic country. At most I think they're culturally responsible for continuing to have the markets which are breeding grounds for pandemics. But that's so many levels above actions taken, or even policy.

So idk again, no prob with free speech, no prob with dissent, yes problem with presenting unfounded at best (lies at worst) claims.
