For the greater good in this case.
I identify the lie; I see the point behind it, and it's a worthwhile one.
What ”greater good”?Shame that - maybe blame China for it happening.
I find your trivialization of the attacks people are suffering as callous but even beyond that isn’t the “greater good” to stop one of these pandemics happening again? Closing wet markets would be a very good start in that and propagating the lie that it came from a lab is hugely counterproductive to that end.
