Actual post from Dec. 15 from one of the streams. This is a real topic. As far as promoting women and minorities even if their qualifications are not as good as the white male scientists, I am all for it. We need diversity at the lab and if that is what it takes, so be it. Quit your whining. Look around the lab, what do you see? White male geezers. How many African Americans do you see at the lab? Virtually none. LLNL is one of the MOST undiverse places you will see. Face it folks, LLNL is an institution of white male privilege and they don't want to give up their privileged positions. California, a state of majority Hispanics has the "crown jewel" LLNL nestled in the middle of it with very FEW Hispanics at all!

The NNSA labs should not be doing this work. They should not be doing science. They need to do bombs and nothing else, no mission creep. Maybe we needed science in the cold war when innovation was needed but we are not in the era any more and have not been there for some time.
5:26 sounds like the fellow on 3/27/2020 @ 4:57 that disagreed with the idea of the NNSA super computers being used to address the virus. The claim that NNSA should not be involved sounds like a "Not My Job" attitude. Roll up the sleeves and get to work or step to the side and say thanks to let those that will work.

and you are the "bitter" guy. Can't post a thought without the word bitter. We all have to put up with your posts that are not about the topic but instead just a Prologue of why not to listen to someones opinion. It's old.

(1) That is just a distraction to take heat off Trump who is the one really responsible.
(2) It is certainly possible and would mean that China has some explaining to do. The reality is China is rather fast and loose with bio ethics in general. Don't be surprised if the when we find out that are making genetically modified people, bio weapons and so on. This stuff could be a real threat to the rest of the world and China is just the country to do this.
(3) Maybe it was just that a accident and nothing more. My understanding is that many labs look at modified strains of such viruses to get idea of where the next flu comes from.
(4) It is no accident someone let this loose maybe not the state of China but some worker ect.
(1) That is just a distraction to take heat off Trump who is the one really responsible.
Back in February it was the right wing sources, likely to deflect, but now its starting to come from the left wing sources. I'm starting to think there is more intel on this and its starting to leak out.
