So our patent office is protecting synthetic and natural discoveries?

Bc viruses were invented by the liberal elite to keep down the blue collar, christian, straight cis white man
Smallpox and measles were both funded directly by George Soros

The Chinese Government? I’m not talking about the citizens of China that the Chinese government kills and most people don’t blink an eye. I’m talking about the millions around the world, the same government killed with a virus and half the people in this country would call me some type of made up names for simply telling the truth.

It was a genuine question. No need to engage defenses. Just wondering why.

I read the case argument as it was a man-made living organism, which would categorize it as synthetic, yeah? They just included it, along with naturally made organisms, as matter.
