There's been a lot of misguided moderation that happens to be in favor of China. Earlier in the pandemic, the left bought into the propaganda that the lab leak theory etc were racist. I attribute the pro-China moderation to good intentions and ignorance.

I don't know if you're talking about HN, but what you're describing there is not the dynamic here.

That is true; I remember, early on, the lab leak theory (of which I am a proponent) received substantial and fair discussion with significant technical detail, long before it became a partisan thing.
