I don't know which is worse, how fast he spun around to save face or how bad it sounds when you remember just a few weeks ago he said it didn't require a serious containment measure. If he "knew" it was a pandemic to be, then doing nothing about it for weeks is all the worse lmao. |

Imagine a virus suddenly spread from a city in your country and some president from other country call it [insert country] Virus even though there is already an official name of the virus. Imagine: The American Virus The US Virus The Australian Virus The Japanese Virus The German Virus Idk, sounds a bit racist to me. /shrug |

QPR said: Oh really? Go ahead and tell me what land the US has taken over which has benefited them. It sure as hell isn't anything in the middle east, the reason the US was in there was to protect assets which were already owned and to protect the global oil supply. The land still belongs to the natives and most troops were already pulled out long ago. Yet the Chinese have a monopoly on all global trade, they own literally more than half of some countries and they're still expanding their influence everywhere which has a negative impact on everyone in the global community.Cneq said: Why would you post military statistics when I'm talking about an economical invasion? A country could have barely any military presence and still be able to "attack" nations through commerce and mass investment. That is precisely why it's called an economical invasion and it is the exact thing China has been doing for decades. If you want to make an argument that the US is doing something similar to that then give examples of countries where the US is constantly buying up land, taking control of homegrown business and making the cost of living skyrocket. You posting United States statistics has no relation to this argument and you're kind of wasting my time. They don't buy up land, the kill people and steal it which is far worse than the Chinese do. I know you are American because the point went right over your head. Economical invasion is no less of an invasion than a militaristic one, if you're naive enough to think there's somehow a difference between them then your entire opinion has been discredited. |

I mean there are only 2 likely scenarios with the corona virus and they both involved China. 1. It is an escaped bio weapon and they were too dumb to contain 2. Or China is the equivalent to a toddler that can't stop putting stupid shit in its mouth and needs to be babysat. So calling it a Chinese virus is pretty accurate and honestly I still find it hilarious how many groups have all that Chinese money to keep fellating their oppressive regime when they caused a global pandemic |

Idk, I saw someone on Twitter that put a link to an article that said why the virus and other things like it can't be named after a place. It was from an organization some years ago. And I don't really know why some people can't understand that he is being clearly racist, there's a law to not call the virus with a nationality because that produces more racist moments, and yet, Trump and his "fake media" called it "wuhan virus" or "chinese virus". I don't know how the idiots of the united states are going to react about this, but here where I live he would've been fired and never again ablel to be the president. |

The Wuhan Curse might be a better term. Kung Flu is alright. WuTang Mystery might be the best one. I'm sorry we're not PC enough, we shouldn't be literal, we should invent stuff to save the emotions of the CCP who's trying to say America started it. But I get that we should be sensitive to Asian people around the world. And yet we didn't call it 'Asian Flu'. And we DID call it Spanish Flu. So... Also Lou Gehrig's Disease. Maybe we should literally call it 'China's Disease'? But I like coronavirus better. Trump calls it 'the unseen' which makes it sound pretty cool. Honestly PBS sounds stupid when they try to nitpick PC stuff, you're trying to get Trump to win 2020 with that stuff. PS: Calling it Chinese Virus isn't racist. It's a fucking literal description of objective truth. You want racism then come on down to the border! |

@DarkInsomnia57 Exactly, nitpicking stuff doesn't do anything. I'm a hard leftie, and I'm 100% fine with what the Donald called Coronavirus... Everyone knows that the Chinese were fucking around with bats, and look where that got them. And of course, Xi decided to cover it up, which actually made the virus propagate throughout the masses. there are more pressing issues to be worried about at this moment. Such as the threat of an economic downturn. |

Fucking ridiculous. The people who first started calling it "Wuhan virus" was Hong Kong. And a lot of people called it Wuhan virus before it was given the name COVID 19. China is one of the least racially sensitive countries in the world, the only reason they are making a fuss about this is because they justifiably got internationally roasted for weeks for lying about the virus. Now they are desperately trying to save face by blaming the US and saying we launched a bioweapons attack on them. Fucking ridiculous. |

Didn't also China blame the USA for the virus? I think this is the war between China and USA, China tries to do their war with small subtle attacks while the USA goes all out. That is the Chinese way, and bad for them is that this USA president is not holding back. Which I like honestly, I am not a fan or supporter or Trump, and I do not hate USA or China (well I do not like thier gov at all to be honest, after 2 years living in China I got to know the good and bad of it), but I like to at least hear something that sounds like the truth from presidents. Anyway it's not that big of a deal in my eyes, as I remember being called a laowai a lot in China which is a racist term to call a foreigner as I later found out( or at least it seems so as everytime I got called that people were pointing at me and wanting to take pictures like I am some kind of animal). But in the end, let's see it like this, Globalism took a big hit due to the Corona Virus, China is the only country profiting from it.....it created panic everywhere(with good reason) yet no one will change anything after it's over, I can bet my cats on it. |

Also I agree that China and Chinese people in general(not all) are Racist, I even got called ugly because I have a slightly darker skin tone(arabic sort of) and one of my friends form the USA(an african-american) was told not to touch anyone because he is African and has aids probably. And that was in South China where they are more open to the Western world, I won't even start with the stories from Wuhan and central china. |

I am right-leaning conservative, but that doesn't mean I'm some fascist or a white nationalist. Not all conservatives (and other right-leaning people) like Trump. I don't like him much, and I'd rather have Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush, or George H.W. Bush (Referring to when they were elected, not now, as they are retired or deceased.) But we can't, so we'll have to get on with our lives until next election. Back to what I was saying, Trump didn't say anything about the people of China. He only said that the COVID-19 was a "Chinese virus", due to the epicenter being in Mainland China. |

Cneq said: traed said: 1. The US doesn't have a monopoly on HUNDREDS of areas of commerce like China does [Medicine, plastics, manufacturing, just about anything you can think of has some part of it made in China and since countries decided for China to be the scapegoat of pollution since they didn't want to make that trash in their own countries they decided to let china do it, not to mention the literal slave labour going on there which in turn = cheaper prices for manufacturing.Cneq said: traed said: You do realize the CCP are a virus correct? They're economically invading other nations left and right, causing issues in the South China Sea and also treat their own people as cattle, not to mention they're destroying our planet with pollution. They've spread across the world rooting their influence left and right exactly like a virus."Chinese virus" actually can also mean "the Chinese are a virus". It can be easily interpreted as a Freudian slip especially if you compare it to things he's said about China before. Aside from that it can also be a political tool that can be used to further attempt at making China an enemy as well as pass blame for his own administration's subpar handling of the pandemic in the US. That isn't directed at "Chinese" people though, as a nationality/race, but against "The Chinese" as in the people in power such as the CCP. They are a threat to every nation who's become self-reliant on them and the current situation has show just how fucked nations are when the supply lines are cut off. When China does it it's a virus and when America does the same it's spreading freedom and prosperity, right? Heh 2. The US isn't constantly buying up land in foreign countries and in turn rising the cost of living for the natives. The Chinese own at least 50% of Australia and this has crippled home grown companies and have caused others to completely shut their doors, for example holden cars. 3. The US doesn't treat their people like garbage nor do they run a police state where speaking out against a government official will land you behind bars. You can't even compare China to the US, it's completely fucking impossible. While I do hate China for what they've done it doesn't mean I don't respect the power they control nor the trials they had to go through to get there, even if that form of power is of the oppressive and morally grey variety, power and cunning is still power and cunning. The Chinese were victims of the exact type of self-reliance back with the opium wars and they learned the value of international trade and relations and now it's come right around to bite the west in the ass. 1. They don't literally have a monopoly. China has unique conditions that allow it to thrive. It is resource rich and there is the availability of cheap labour so it's cheaper to manufacture parts there. Similar in parts of Africa but their infrastructure isn't as developed as China. 2. There isn't a single part of the US that isn't land that was stolen or purchased. It's not China that owns this land it's Chinese companies just the same as the US owns land in other countries. It's a non argument. It has nothing to do withwwhat you were saying. I'm sure everywhere you go in Australia you have a KFC, McDonalds, Starbucks etc... 3. You're joking right?

Just like how MERS originated from the Middle East cause people there hung out & maybe ate some camels. Seriously, though, not funny, man. No coincidences. They ate bats, dogs, monkeys & birds in China. So, yeah.. I regret reading your fifth tier comedy post. |
