It is LITERALLY a biological weapon, not chemical.
As to the question of it being a weapon, it's kind of like throwing diseased corpses over castle walls, but you just make them walk in on their own instead.
>It is LITERALLY a biological weapon, not chemical.
where is the cutoff point, because things like viruses are not living and all of biology is applied chemistry
Nerd definitions need not apply. If a normal person would consider it biological, it is for the purposes of this term.
Viruses, bacteria, things that move of their own volition and replicate.
>It is LITERALLY a biological weapon, not chemical.

Biological is something that works by biological processes, like a virus, bacteria, amoeba, etc. Deliberately infecting a bunch of troops with HIV would be a use of a biological weapon, as would peppering an approaching unit in anthrax spores.
Chemical is something that works by the function of a chemical agent. A nerve agent is a chemical weapon, despite it having an effect on the body. Mustard gas, or acid, are chemical weapons.
So yes is right, deliberately exposing enemy troops to HIV is a biological weapon. The argument could be made that they weren't sent there exclusively to spread the virus, but that's irrelevant tbh. The result will just be that any unit known to have a large number of soldiers with blood borne diseases will be shelled on sight.
Biological, just putting your hand in a pot of water with prions in it won't fuck you up, ingesting them somehow will.
by that definition nerve gas is bioweapon dumdum
No, nerve gas isn't contagious. That's one of the hallmarks of biological weapons, the ability to spread.

but prion doesn't replicate or affect by biological process, its strictly chemistry, like if you get eaten by a strangelet its not biological weapon either

Yes they are you fucking inbred, prions are literally misfolded proteins that go on to cause other proteins to misfold, and thus are biological
I find your answers incomplete >Biological weapons disseminate disease-causing organisms or toxins to harm or kill humans, animals or plants.
so cyanide is both chemical and bioweapon then? this is stupid

study on protein folding goes under chemistry first, the effects on animals is biology, but the process is strictly chemistry

I am going to file this under you not knowing enough
some town had a massacre so enormous that all the blood flowing in the streets destroyed the water supply, but cant remember where. Probably genghis khan wiping out a rebellious town, though. he would have more than a million civilians at a time murdered in an orderly fashion
It seems the Russians have finally decided which God they're going to dedicate themselves too.
In a few weeks time, I expect to get footage of Russians with gangrenous wounds trying to assault Bakhmut and loosing at least one limb each before they clear the first dozen yards.
>In a few weeks time, I expect to get footage of Russians with gangrenous wounds trying to assault
fuck i remembered russian soldier early in the invasion that was captured by ukie SOF. he had fucking maggots crawling in his arm.
So uh, rubber gloves, yeah. Same reason cpr shields are/were a thing.

so would a custom designed weaponized prion be bioweapon or chemical weapon?
What part of biological process is difficult for you to understand?
by that definition nerve gas is bioweapon dumdum
So that's a yes, got it.
Don't worry, it's 2023, being retarded isn't the handicap it used to be.

you are a fucking retard.
he explained the difference to you already.
prions propagate and make more of themselves, which is what biologic weapons do
chemical weapons expend themselves as they react with things.
how fucking retarded can you be if you can't wrap your head around that?

One made overpriced cars that nobody want to buy and the other took over its share of the global auto market. Your point?
I think plenty of people wanted to buy those cars for quite a while, anon.
And it made a lot of the military tech during WW2.
>wanted to buy those cars for quite a while
Yeah and then foreign automotive companies completely curbstomped the American auto industry
Wet shrapnel seems fucking awful.
