People like to say this with basically no evidence. It's basically a conspiracy theory at this point. In fact, I've had TikTok videos, in the app itself, claiming the same thing.

Man, those CCP folks are just really, really good! They knew I'd be an inherent skeptic! Yes, or perhaps you are just anti-china conspiracy theorist.

I'm open to changing my mind on the subject, but I have not seen a single iota of evidence on the matter.
