@gtuckerkellogg @Ayjchan We still have no clear process used by the parties to the discussion to explain the FCS acquisition... The arguments are as strong as *other things are possible in nature*, and then become rhetoric with *and if you disagree you're an evolution denier*.
@gtuckerkellogg @Ayjchan People can clearly see the incuriosity and lack of rigour which has plagued this narrative fitting exercise.
@PrometheusCHT @gtuckerkellogg @Ayjchan But this notion that if we don't know something it must mean it was purposely designed is not scientific
@BobasoyNPC @gtuckerkellogg @Ayjchan Nobody serious is claiming that it _must_ be designed. Most are saying the data is consistent with both zoonosis or lab origin. Equiplausible & equiprobable.
@PrometheusCHT @gtuckerkellogg @Ayjchan I also don't think any serious person claims it's designed the problem is there are people who should not be treated seriously who unfortunately are, that think the theory that sars-cov-2 was designed is well supported
@BobasoyNPC @gtuckerkellogg @Ayjchan Letting the lowest common denominator of thinker determine what is up for debate is an even bigger mistake and only serves as confirmation to people who aren't evidence based. What the original team did has come back to bite them, with the Streisand Effect now in full force.
@PrometheusCHT @gtuckerkellogg @Ayjchan The original team isn't being bitten by their "pro censorship" actions. They're being attacked because they didn't publish something they see as not suppoted by the evidence, not because they did it in the name of censorship. Unfortunately they will continue to be attacked as
@PrometheusCHT @gtuckerkellogg @Ayjchan long as people disagree with them
@BobasoyNPC @gtuckerkellogg @Ayjchan Do you struggle with basic comprehension? This isn't, following the evidence dispassionately. This is teleological. The telos being, *do not conclude lab or research origin*.
@PrometheusCHT @gtuckerkellogg @Ayjchan I should ask you the same question since your reading him saying they should include the rest of what they discussed including that bit as censoring
@BobasoyNPC @gtuckerkellogg @Ayjchan "I would not be in favour of publishing"...
@PrometheusCHT @gtuckerkellogg @Ayjchan Many would not be in favor of publishing something without the evidence to back it up
