Alina just whines about being called a conspiracy theorist - remarkable that she gets "journalists" [loosely defined tobuy into that crap.

    "I, for one, was very quickly labeled as a conspiracy theorist, in an attempted shut down of the debate". Nope, you were labeled as such _because_ you are a conspiracy theorist - still are and has nothing to do with "shutting down the debate". Unsavory, indeed.

    Speaking of journalists - I'm talking to Jim in a couple of hours and will tear into him for letting this conspiracy bs get into his paper. It'll be interesting to see how he reacts...

    Well - she doesn't *just* whine - she spreads a shitload of misinformation, e.g. SC2 is perfectly adapted to humans, RaTG13, RmYN02 are fake etc

    then there is the whole Eddie et al are responsible for genocide thing - but she plays the victim very well (seen that behavior before).
