Enjoy the empty capitalist shelves americans used to scoff at in other countries.

 

[SoccerMom]

A question for those who insist the phrase "Chinese virus" is racist:

Is "Chinese food" racist? And if it is, what do you lefties call it?

 

[Marcus Aurelius]

A question for those who insist the phrase "Chinese virus" is racist:

If you're white, you are not allowed to eat Chinese food, or any ethnic foof, as that is cultural appropriation and thus.... racist.

And dont bother saying that isnt true, liberals...I can post examples from LIBERAL media sources.

Neither the food nor the virus minds either way, and americans get both. Enjoy, coming to a neighborhood near you, call it whatever ya like.

CNN was calling it the Wuhan virus. Then someone told them they felt it was racist that Trump was calling it the Wuhan or China virus so they changed their tune knowing it was a new "I gotcha moment". Now Trump who isn't going to change won't change because CNN changed. It's more grade school stuff but definitely not racist based on all of the past viruses that have been named after where they originated.

Still fecklessly attempting to assign party affiliation because you chose one?

How do you feel about your political class hiding what was coming form the public while they got their insider trading all in order?

I see you have nothing to say about your party's sandbagging the reaction to this crisis by again crying racism. All you have is communist Chinese/Democrat propaganda to push...
