You have it completely backward. The scenario you describe (small unaccountable groups controlling who can lead) is exactly what this candidate objects to. Yves Engler was prevented from running for NDP leader (“quashed”) by a 3-person, unelected group of party officials. I find those people’s motivations much more questionable.
What kind of “interests” do you imagine she is a “puppet” for, and what led you to that conclusion?


The bombing is described as having “involved firing more than 100 munitions at over 70 targets,” which is a significant amount even if it killed no one.

The Carter Center (cited by that BBC piece) is funded by various western governments including the US, as well as CIA-affiliated regime-change orgs like the National Endowment for Democracy. They are not a neutral party.
The “pro-Kremlin” smear is similarly questionable as it is promoted by the same groups.


Are there any problems with this particular story? I found it to be mostly collating current thought about BCI and its applications.

This article is literally quoting the official press release of the committee’s chairman:
Dr. Fauci claimed that the “6 feet apart” social distancing recommendation promoted by federal health officials was likely not based on any data. He characterized the development of the guidance by stating “it sort of just appeared.”
Dr. Fauci acknowledged that the lab leak hypothesis is not a conspiracy theory.
Dr. Fauci admitted that America’s vaccine mandates during the COVID-19 pandemic could increase vaccine hesitancy in the future.
Ever have one of those time-is-a-flat-circle moments?
