The "conspiracy" stuff came from the claims that this was deliberately released by China to crash the world economy, and other claims like that.

I don't feel like digging into google for 2020 articles now, but mainstream media repeatedly told everyone that "experts" concluded that the lab leak theory was false, and I even remember seeing that exact statement on the Twitter sidebar, which is used by the platform to "correct misinformation" on current hot-button topics.

The biggest problem came from the complete shutdown of the discussion of the lab leak theory. Healthy debate is fine, and I don't fault people who come down on the opposite side of the lab leak theory. However, even considering the possibility of the lab leak theory being true was a sin in the eyes of the left and the mainstream media... until Trump lost, and then it was fine to consider.
The biggest camp in the lab leak theory from last year was the Plandemic clowns. That BS was 100% misinformation spread for whatever reason. Nothing about it was "healthy" discussion.

At the time it was far more important to crush it than have a civil 6 month long discussion about what parts might resemble reality. But don't worry it wasn't successful. The same crap is still alive and kicking. It's now just a side strain of anti-vaxx and totally functional home remedy camp of team retard. And if it helps that's what's powering the US 2k deaths per day, with a fertile ground for mutations that will eventually overcome vaccines.
Variants are coming from shitholes of the world like AFRICA, not the unvaccinated here. What a complete shill idiot nonthinking ahole.
