Surprise, the climate change denying, Twitter-files propagandists find themselves coming down on the #bioweapon myth too.

@shellenberger @mtaibbi are such bottom-feeding losers it would almost break my heart if they weren't as malicious & intentional in their quest for attention

The alleged sick workers are neither a new nor true part of the #bioweapon mythology; it is made up BS from David Asher and the State Department under Pompeo, going back to 2020 and laundered through some unnamed intelligence sources that got wide media coverage in 2021.

The thing is; these #rewarmed talking points about sick workers have not only never been substantiated, but they are inconsistent with scientific evidence 🔽 & are also directly contradicted by serological tests of workers at the WIV, showing nobody was infected with Covid prior

What @shellenberger and every other media manipulator out there try to do is to farm engagements by telling their audiences what they want to hear using very tired 'revelation'-style sensationalism, a tactic done a million times before exactly the same.

If #lies are rewarded instead of resulting in repercussions, if people are never held accountable for unsubstantiated allegations and claims, cheap #propagandists will recycle whatever #falsehood they need to get engagements and manipulate people.

This is what we observe today.

And if people still believe that maybe there is something to these people, they are the same #losers who published last week that the US is in possession of 12 #alien vehicles... because their audience wanted to hear about #UFOs.

And on a side note:

@Ayjchan aligning closer and closer with rightwing networks where the belief that the US is hiding alien spacecraft is a badge of loyalty is just too perfect.

Keep going Alina, Fox News is waiting, but careful not to become a cheap version of @DiLiMengYAN1

@Ayjchan @DiLiMengYAN1 Some further considerations about the allegedly ill workers 🙄:
