I thought this was all basically totally dropped once it was tied back to that guy in that "totally not the CIA" "totally not a cult" "religious group" Falun Gong shit. Pretty sure those weirdos were behind the "very organic" pro-Hong Kong (whatever that even means. Hong Kong is fine) protests becoming big in the US, helping spread anti-Chinese conspiracies around covid, bunch of shit from laughable to actually life threatening
I don't know of any links between Adrian Zenz and his ETIM buddies and Falun Gong aside from their mutual friends at Langley, but I may have missed something. In any case, libs never really dropped it (what we consider proof there isn't anything untoward going on is ignored and played off as "CCP propaganda"), it just kind of went to sleep once the situation in Ukraine flared up.
