The COVID-19 Lab Leak Theory
The COVID-19 lab leak theory has never been a conspiracy theory, it's just a theory. There are still plenty of helpful takeaways and lessons from this story that can be applied to other issues in the future. The most damning pieces of evidence are still circumstantial, but they're worth noting. Mentioning the theory made you anything from a tin foil hat lunatic to a racist. I was called the latter by a few tangle readers several times for emphasizing the plausibility of the lab leak theory. It's also a great example of how stopping the spread of misinformation often turns into an important debate.
