peddling covid conspiracies

like what?

Yeah that's a silly article. Strange that a supposed "tankie" would post something that pushes the Chinese lab leak conspiracy though, especially from an outlet run by an NYT liberal like Bari Weiss.

Define tankie, or do you just go off of vibes and guesses without any coherent thoughts about your opponents yourself?
