Secret covid lab found in California

Appears to be tied to Chinese government.
State government found it and tried to cover it up.
They were playing with geneticlly altered mice, hep a, rubella, herpes, malaria, aids, a few others.
Happened back in March.
Network news won't touch the story, fox news barely mentioned it.
Basically trying to cause a "12 monkeys" scenario.

They wanted to move the lab to the middle of the city.

Had been operating out of various locations for 10 years.

Police departments? Or death squads hunting dissidents down?

They've learned that killing the dissident makes them a martyr. Only adds to the rebellion. Jailing them forever doesn't seem to be as bad.

Very strange. I don't see anything that ties it to the Chinese government. Who knows.

A stand-alone complex?
Quote:
https://www.urbandictionary.com › define.php?term=Stand alone complex
Urban Dictionary: Stand alone complex
In short Stand alone complex is multiple copies of a behavior, object, view, ect, existing without an original. The laughing Man is a living example of Stand Alone Complex. Not only did hundreds copy his works without knowing who or what he was of there[sic] own volition all claiming to be the original.

Sure the way a dissident dies abroad may have a different effect, depending on how it happens. Let's suppose Craig Williamson killed Mandela in London, most likely Mandela would've been made a martyr, yet I'm not sure how it would lead the Apartheid to fall sooner than it fell.

Here we go again!

I had Russell Brand on to listen to while I was in the other [end of the] room. When I came back, there was a new tab open (this location, Chromium browser, Raspian OS)

<<https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html>>

I thought browsers were supposed to pull pages, not push them. Probably the thing I needed to get me on Brave browser.

The hint here is the word chromium when attached to the word browser. It's doing odd stuff in pihole, too. Imagine an add in an add blocker software page.
