    A pandemic isn’t a virus. It a designation of the effect a virus is having or how it is spreading… He might be saying they took a situation, and blew it out of proportion for political purposes. My position is that the easy way to know a politician is twisting something for thier own gain is to note when they open thier mouths. But that doesn’t rule out that what they are saying might just happen to be true either.

      I see what you’re saying. They “seized an opportunity” versus creating/unleashing it. But to say they created it with the intent to profit–it all seems to suggest control/foreknowledge. I have a hard time believing he’s saying, “Fauci sure lucked out twice, didn’t he?” But your point is still valid. I just don’t buy it.

        I don’t know much about the specific case. But with the sheer number of people trying to take advantage of any specific thing, someone will end up looking like they had control/foreknowledge… That said, I only agree that Aaron’s words were twisted to say they created the virus. The guy still seems like a nut job, but who knows, I never met him.
