Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the lab leak theory basically say that the virus was isolated in nature and then brought to the lab for research? Even if it was true I don't see how that changes anything. It would still be human error involved and not some insidious scheme from China to destroy the world (like why the fuck wouldn't you just release it in the US, EU etc). It sure as shit wouldn't absolve these large countries for their failures to deal with the virus either.
It's bollocks because it's based on extremely thin, circumstantial evidence. Some doctors who worked at the lab had to go to the hospital for flu-like symptoms... and that's about it. I've not seen a shred more evidence than that. Nothing indicating that their medical check up actually brought up a diagnosis consistent with the COVID-19. No comparisons or analysis of safety procedures at the lab (it's simply assumed that they fucked up). How the fuck is this in any way convincing?
And don't kid yourself that acknowledging "human error" is where this shit stops. The imperial propaganda machine is working full-time to manufacture consent for Cold War 2.0 and "they made an honest mistake" will be used a a fig leaf the same way that "I don't hate the Chinese just the CCP" to cover up the raging genocidal boner of Western chuds.
There are several theories under the umbrella, people seem to pick which one they're referring to based on how convenient it is at the time. The "brought in from the wild" theory is also one of them. From what I've seen it asserts that some miners got ill in 2012, Scientists sequenced it, and it was 90% similar or the exact same thing as a coronavirus called RATG 13, which is 96% similar to COVID-19. The theory still rests on the Wuhan Lab genetically modifying it (which Scientists still agree is extremely hard to do with SARS) then it leaking through great incompetence.
Edit: Even if they managed to tweak the 2012 virus, there's no evidence to say what the first cases got was from a lab leak instead of a spillover from the wild.

Nah I definitely know where it's headed propaganda wise. Just pointing out disingenuous blue maga bullshit
