Remember how ok conservatives were about the parts of covid you could be racist about? Yeah they’re more or less going to do that but just those parts and probably unrelated to a virus.
A lot of people blamed Asians conceptually for Covid, everything from saying it came from eating dogs to the idea of the Chinese government making it on purpose.
Well, wasn’t the lab leak hypothesis the going/accepted story during late 2019 and first few months of 2020? That’s all I was hearing. People often get locked-in to the first explanation they hear, racist or not. People are bad at updating their worldview, and unfortunately they often get initialized on some racist positions.
Extending to pet eating, etc, is just virulently racist.
Think about it for a second, even if it was a man made virus how would you go about proving that without somebody saying “yeah it was me and this is how I did it in immaculate detail”, and even if somebody did that there’s a decent chance they’re lying for the fame.
The only nice thing in America is that states can make their own laws; when the bird flu pandemic starts, sane states will institute rules to deal with it, they don’t need to wait for the federal government
We’ve had freedom of religion perhaps, but never freedom from religion. Christian gobbledygook is baked into America’s DNA, and deviation from that has always resulted in a paddling.
Take Trump for example. A dyed in the wool contrarian. The walking talking embodiment of cutting off ones nose to spite their face. Refuses to acknowledge any authority but his own, often at the hazard of himself and others. And even he feigns to bend the knee to religion, and play act at being a Christian. That’s how truly compulsory it is.
Americans aren’t getting any lockdowns in the next 4 years regardless of any pandemic.
It won’t be the pandemic it will be curfews when Trump enacts Marshall Law to combat the “dangerous brown people” in our cities.
I think GOP won’t go along
so which country do you hail from?
That Marshall guy sounds like a dick
How many lives have to be sacrificed for them to understand?
Only those in red states who vote trump
About 65M.
Rookie numbers
Oh, you’re blaming voters instead of the elites. I wondered what your number was.
They understand already
Since you apparently were not around just a few short years ago, that’s controlled by the states.
Your ignorance is astounding.
Oh wow, burn!
Thanks
What about the woke mind virus pandemic?
/s
Maybe the brain worm one.
Oh we’re getting lockdowns alright, just not related to anything the WHO will recommend.

Curious to know what you mean here.
What parts of a virus could they find to be racist about?

well then there’s stuff like this that scratch my head link

I read that there would be genetic markers of a manmade virus, and that this virus’s RNA matched a natural evolution.
Every action leaves some sort of trace.
And the parts that inconvenienced them.
If NY was locked down with refrigerator trailers full of the dead, that’s fine. If Dallas has the same, fuckit, we’re going to Applebee’s.
There’s a serious level of chauvinism to their ideological club.
Oh we’ll get lockdowns
Anyone who’s even looks like the people of the country where the first case is identified will be locked down… in concentration camps.
The only nice thing in America is that states can make their own laws; when the bird flu pandemic starts, sane states will institute rules to deal with it, they don’t need to wait for the federal government
This. Federalism is such a blessing
Literally the only blessing with America; I’d say the other one is freedom of religion, but they’re trying to get rid of that
Only just now?

Gobbledyremoved can’t say removed even whenit is part of another word?
Huh?
Some instances has censoring installed, so they really see it that way, and their messages are [REDACTED], as far, as I know.
So since the word contains part that ‘is a derogatory term for people of East and Southeast Asian descent’, it gets censored
Ah I thought everyone saw “removed”
