Re: Corona virus, China major city lockdowns, etc.
they have put this in display in a grand jury
It's never going to see a grand jury. It has no substance and no grand jury will consider it.
I can't explain in two lines why fast-checkers are mostly useless
Oh I fully understand why you disagree with fact checkers. You're assumption is that anything that disagrees with your narrative must be part of the conspiracy. The problem is this view disregards the very principle of scientific peer review. Now fact checkers themselves wouldn't qualify as scientific peer reviewers but they work on the same principles. They publish their conclusions and invite criticism. That's why the fact checkers go all the way down. There are few things a fact checker would relish more than the opportunity to debunk another fact checker - it's the best sort of scoop there is.
Further, they cite their sources, allowing you to back check their veracity. In the case of the last link I gave you the source page is here. It includes the WHO, the Lancet, the CDC... you know... actual credible scientific bodies that require peer review. They require papers to be published in reputable scientific journals where they can be assessed and criticised by fellow scientists. This is important - it's the scientific process and it's the thing that separates us from plague doctors of the 1300s who would have blamed covid on miasmas.
Your sources, on the other hand, do not require any of this type of rigor. They are not science, they are unsubstantiated opinion. And to build your world view on this without engaging in any of that rigor yourself invalidates your conclusions because, as the most junior student of logic will tell you, you cannot draw a conclusion from predicates without first establishing the veracity of those predicates. It is not enough to simply will them into being. It allows you to divorce yourself from reality, which is what you've down. It's how Baka can arrive at the conclusion that a virus which overly kills old people can have been deliberately created and released in order to exterminate the young. That's Pizzagate, right there.
But I'll offer the invite again: who are your valid sources? We can apply some scientific rigor to them and find out if they have validity or not. If you're unwilling or unable to engage in that process you cannot expect anyone to view your opinions as anything other than the ravings of the deranged.
Edit> I've already done you the courtesy of watching several and checking their veracity. I owe you nothing more on that front.
