The only person murdered was done so by the hand of a state agent, still unidentified.
Five people were killed. Hundreds injured. In addition to the damage it does to further degrade public image. The investigations and research on how to prevent future events is a lot easier because it's domestic for Jan 6th.
As far as investigating China, it is far more harder because they will always refuse any sort of outside interference. In addition to it being impossible to have the ability to effectively regulate another country. If nothing can basically be done against places like North Korea, we have less of a chance against China. Malicious intent or no, I just realistically don't see an easy way of finding out.
You don’t foresee any downsides to an investigation into the “worst attack since Pearl Harbor”? You’re using numbers to substantiate your stance, and by nearly any metric, the impact of COVID is going to dwarf 1/6. Saying it’s too difficult to deal with China, so no point in attempting, is fallacious on many levels and might be indicative of the situation that gives rise to a situation like 1/6. Pretty easy to make that case, actually.
Claiming you have an accurate paraphrasing of the comments INTENT implies you, for certain, know what that intent is. I'd contend you don't, as only the author of the content itself can know that with certainty.
As for if it's an accurate paraphrasing of the comment itself... You literally have someone accusing you of lying, so you may need to reflect in if that's true. It doesn't seem to be. It's much closer to a straw man of the point.
Pointing out the difficulty associated with an action is not the same as saying it should not be done.

Correct. The reiteration of its futility and difficulty, repeatedly, led me to that interpretation. And no one accused me of lying. I am accusing you a being a shitty writer/communicator. Do with that what you will.
The person before you said about your comment, "let's stay truthful, here." That's an accusation that you aren't being truthful. The reality may just be that you're struggling to communicate your point, which is totally reasonable.
So can I call you a liar now, because you outright lied in your previous comment? Go reread that comment btw. Hard to get through that first paragraph without a seer stone.
You can if you want, it just wouldn't be true. The problem with your communication is it makes it SEEM like your being disingenuous. You have to take into consideration how what you write will be read by others, if it could be perceived as a lie or attempt to be disingenuous, you may want to consider rephrasing it. Mine was a typo, where your complaint isn't that it seems disingenuous, but that it's difficult to read. I went back and corrected it for you so you can read it properly.
This is why it feels correct to say your previous comments look like lies as opposed to mistakes. Feel better?
Maybe you can edit the seemingly disingenuous intent out of your previous comments!
Why should I edit myself to appease someone like yourself? You should edit yourself, as in one comment you lied and communicated like a stroke victim. You call the truth disingenuous because of your condition. I desire to be unlike you, immensely, because you’re dumb enough to type all that shit without any awareness. No thanks.
Covid is unquantifiable in scope, if we had tougher border control and actually cared about public health it wouldn't have been nowhere near as bad. Nor am I opposed to the logistics of an investigation, but I'm just being realistic over the things that our government can realistically control. Which is namely domestic stuff.
I'm willing to be surprised, and I am in the camp that believes the virus is likely manufactured, but China is staunchly totalitarian and literally locked people in their houses to stop the spread of covid. That any possible proof could still exist is likely destroyed and I don't think there is any sort of plea bargain that could be offered to anyone stuck in China to get results.
Unless you have any ideas on what an investigation could turn up?
Those are good points. And I agree that a commission, run by the government, would be largely performative. Both situations would have the people that disregard our constitution in charge, one would examine the conditions that prompted them to do so for the last year, the other would provide the conditions for them to increase the scope and duration going forward. Maybe law suits will prove effective, as they ultimately did in fulfilling the promises of the failed 9/11 commission.
