Thunderf00t debunked one of the easier theories to debunk because the conspiracy theorist showed a complete lack of understanding of how virii, the immune system, and radio waves work. The guy's explanation of how 5G causes COVID-19 was obviously absurd, even to the laymen. So absurd that Thunderf00t spent a good deal of time going off on tangents that had nothing to do with 5G, apparently for no better reason than to make a short video longer than necessary.
That said, there may be more convincing theories out there, and, as with the moon landing hoaxers, the debunkers will have to tackle a good many of them before they finally die down - if they ever do.
Any lawyer will tell you there's a difference between an expert witness and a witness of fact. The former is qualified to give an educated opinion on a subject, even if he doesn't have firsthand knowledge of a particular case:
"Doctor, is it possible that...."
"Yes, that's possible."
The latter can only tell you what he saw or heard.
A recent example:
The other day, James O'Keefe of Project Veritas asked a National Guardsman at a testing station if the media were exaggerating how serious the pandemic is. He took the Guardsman's answer as proof of the point he was trying to make. Unfortunately, while the Guardsman is entitled to his personal opinion, he's not a medical expert. He can only tell us about the events he observed at that particular testing station.
