>For this to make sense, the goodguys would have needed to know in 2017 that the badguys were going to release a virus at a specific time.
This is false. What the goodguys needed was the playbook…..not the specific plays that would be called. Is there any doubt that we own the fucking playbook? Or that (their) ability to run audibles is fucking as non-existent as their ability to meme?
>That's the same thing
No. It isnt. Knowing an opposing baseball teams signals is not the same as knowing in advance what pitch is going to be called in the 9th inning of a fucking game next week. The distinction is real and non-trivial in this context.
>I'm not going to argue with you.
That is wise. Because on this particular point you would lose. Note here that im not defending the timeline put forward. I am pointing out that your reasoning is sloppy af.
