We've known for years that governments are interested in developing bioweapons that target specific populations. What I didn't know until this week's episode are the lengths to which the CCP has reportedly gone to obtain the genomic data needed to do it.https://www.ft.com/content/245a7c60-6880-11e7-9a66-93fb352ba1fe …

Kyle Bass: what evidence do you have for this incredibly incendiary claim? Absent such evidence, this is just utterly irresponsible Yellow Scare nonsense, which I suspect is probably subtended by some weird crypto-white supremecist ‘Great Replacement’ BS.
