Many Twitter users with a high follower count have turned off replies from people they don’t follow. So it’s basically just an announcement platform for perceived genius.

1) It's Richard Ebright who has been quoted in numerous articles. He isn't some "rando on twitter." You didn't read his sub-tweets.
2) You only read the title of the article I linked that was in sub-tweets. See the following tweet:
https://mobile.twitter.com/R_H_Ebright/status/14052391926286...
> The construction of novel chimeric SARS-related coronaviruses able to infect human cells and lab animals at WIV (1) was published with acknowledgment to NIH grant AI110964 (https://journals.plos.org/plospathogens/article?id=10.1371/j...) and (2) was reported to NIH under NIH grant AI110964 (https://reporter.nih.gov/search/0dVX_GElSEGDOsNMZq7qaQ/proje...)
So, yes, gain of function research was happening at WIV.

It’s scientists that fund or support gain of function research at WIV. So anyone involved with Ecohealth is fair game.
I don’t see anything political here. If Fauci and Daszak had come out against dangerous experiments at low biosafety levels we wouldn’t be talking about them.

I don’t think Richard Ebright is demanding an investigation for political reasons. He refers to Trump as a sociopath.

False. The reason for leaving Mozilla was never published.

So your disappointed Hacker News isn't more engaged with identity politics and cancel culture?
And by the way you are wrong. It has come up in several threads in the past.

If someone rents an Airbnb for a few months in a new location are they now a resident of that new location? If we aren't talking about residency then changing an association (whatever that means) seems arbitrary.

Many people I have known remarked on how an older person they know has a failing body and an active mind. The mind being the most important.

This is the best article I have read that was posted to HN this year. Most other articles that try to be insightful just reveal the writers own stupidity and desire to follow trends.
I did not see the same tricks in this article.
