YouTube Description
as posted by the channelRemember the COVID-19 pandemic? That was crazy, right? And did you hear that the virus responsible, SARS-CoV-2, leaked from a virology lab in Wuhan? And that it may even have been deliberately leaked to act as a bioweapon? You definitely heard that. Everybody has. But is it true? Well... I mean what's the alternative? All those stupid scientists talking about how it almost certainly originated from a wet market, with live animals coughing and crapping everywhere, just like so many other documented spillover events, what sense does that make? Those people are stupid establishment shills, right? Well, why don't we talk about it in excruciating detail for a couple hours? That should clear everything up.
