    can any country in the world make it rain? no

    can any country in the world release a deadly pathogen to cause chaos and confusion? yes.

    my point isn’t the actual closure, it’s the visibility of risk mitigation.

    what’s your point?

      If you throw 2 million darts, eventually you get one bullseye. A coincidence is not evidence

        by that logic Trump won the election fair and square. there’s no evidence he cheated or colluded with Russian intelligence.

        also Epstein killed himself because coincidences aren’t evidence. also trump wasn’t friends with Epstein because it was sheer coincidence he was at all the same parties, which as you state doesn’t count as evidence.

        while we’re at it, god exists, the tooth fairy is real, and unicorns roam the earth. just because the evidence they don’t exist doesn’t exist doesn’t mean they don’t exist.
