    Racist? What race is China?

    Do you want to know what a race is? White people are a race. Now are you going to chastise and give beat downs to the people who use the terms white privilege and white supremacy?

    It is unbelievable that China has so much control over the American left that they actually got people like you and others to do their bidding for them. Are you being well compensated or are you just being obedient? I really can't see a third choice.

    So who decides what something is "officially named"? I guess the rat infested mainstream media...

    I asked first
    Why shouldn't it be called in our layman's terms by it's origination like other virsus or diseases? Who is trying to make the political statement here? Why defend China?

    African killer bees have a scientific name but no one uses it.

    You trust Biden to protect us from The Wuhan China virus?

    It took Biden until April 3rd to finally support travel restrictions.

    Biden has dementia and is incapable of making good decisions.

    What is the officially designated name for the German measles and how often do you use it?

    Once again, racism isn't racist if whites are the target. Interesting considering whites are less than 10 percent of the global population.

    Rubella.

    And it is used exclusively when defining the "R" in the MMR vaccine.

    Next.

    Wrong again.

    "The International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) is concerned with the designation and naming of virus taxa (i.e. species, genus, family, etc.) rather than the designation of virus common names or disease names. For an outbreak of a new viral disease, there are three names to be decided: the disease, the virus and the species. The World Health Organization (WHO) is responsible for the first, expert virologists for the second, the ICTV for the third."

    Does the term German measles stoke the same emotions from you that the China virus does? Do a search on German measles and see what you see. There are references to it on WebMD. Do you know how the Zika virus was named?

    I'm glad that you're being honest. I wonder if you realise that your honesty really does expose a GROSS double standard. It is really interesting that all you can say is that it would be "inappropriate", but when it is a country with a race other than white, all of a sudden it's RACIST! :roflol:

    Some things are OBJECTIVELY true though. For example, pointing out the plain and simple FACT that African American males commit the most crime - is that racist? Whatever you think - guess what? - It's what's called THE TRUTH!

    1965? Really?

    I can guarantee you that virtually no one under 40 would know wtf the "German Measles" were, but would instantly recognize Rubella being the "R" in the MMR vaccine.

    Which wouldn't be a problem in my opinion so long as the Western countries are able to maintain their superior Western values. I would have no problem whatsoever being a minority in a black majority country in this case.

    Oh wow! That's embarrassing! I don't understand why he mentioned it this long after the ban started! Not much to gain I wouldn't think.

    You don't know that it leads in the number of cases.

    Cite where I got it wrong, and you are properly named if you think I am defending China.

    Some "truths" are built on a web of assumptions that crack upon further examination. Like your "black males commit the most crimes" statistic.

    For example, we know that based on survey data that illicit drug usage among White and Black communities are nearly the same for just about every drug. And yet the black population gets arrested multiple orders higher than their white counterpart for illegal drug possession. Which group committed the most crime? Well, if you take the survey data, then you would realize that they both should commit roughly the same number of crimes on that particular offense (and when you factor in that white people outnumber black people in this country, that means they should make up an even larger amount of arrests), but they do not because of other underlying socioeconomic issues.
