    Reality is the ultimate racist, and it must be ignored at all costs.

    I seriously wouldn't have thought that was even possible, but somehow the Dems pulled it off.

    Believe me, gentlemen, nobody cares. Whichever of the two candidates -- either "where am I...?" Joe, or "bet it all on Wall Street" Donnie, promises to shovel the most unearned, undeserved goodies in the most agreeable manner will win the election.

    Bernie Sanders? This poor, delusional dreamer got sh!t on -- TWICE -- by the DNC, which never wanted to give him a fair chance in the first place....

    And it's been determined that the correct name is Convid19.

    I don't recall that "Wuhan" is a race/ethnicity. Seems you're making that one up.
    I also hardly recall people wanting to name it specifically the Chinese virus.

    It sounds far more, that a handful of idiots want to / cling on to put in Chinese in there....
    Them are racist. You aware that racism is a massive issue in the US?
    You got loads rallying around pro slaver monuments demanding they get to worship
    the peeps who tried the hardest to violently oppress black people for being black,
    in prominent locations...... for instance. Them lot are also a bunch of special snowflakes.
    They get so tooshyhurt when they are called for what they are: racists.

    You ARE right.

    The partisan bullshit I can deal with, but what concerns me is Leftists aren't going to learn that America has to change its relationships with their fellow "progressives" in Beijing.

    I totally agree. Also, it isn't time to manufacture crap to demonize our leadership while they are trying to deal with this pandemic. I can see criticizing him for something that he actually did but they are just manufacturing ****. It's tempting to take a "give no quarter" kind of attitude.

    It's pathetic that all the corrupt, racist baby sniffer from Delaware has to offer is "progressive" politically-correct GroupThink™.

    Obviously, he's senile enough to believe that people will think he's serious about this situation when it's clear that he isn't...

    I am just going to note that the title of this article is either objectively wrong or they failed to provide any justification for the title. There is certainly no quote in the article where Biden calls Trump racist for saying that the virus started in China.

    As an aside, it is also improper to call COVID-19 the Wuhan virus.

    That is its official designation yes. Doesn't mean that people can't call it Chinese Virus or Wuhan Virus.[/quote]

    Just covering my bases. I mean come on, leftists have claimed that milk and time itself is racist.

    Neither do I. But that is what it was called...a LOT.



    Considering the video I just posted its ironic that you said this.

    I wouldn't say its massive. Bad, but not massive. But then again leftists consider everything racist so I can see why they would use the term "massive".

    Not only is it appropriate to refer to the Wuhan Virus by its geographic origin, it is helpful given the fact that some people in this country need to learn that the United States has to be less reliant on China for the things the American people need.

    The reason why it is inappropriate to refer to COVID-19 by anything but its official designation is because it leads to both a mistaken assumption that the region should be blamed for the virus and the subsequent reports where Asian-Americans and Asians around the world have noted a spike in discrimination and xenophobic attacks.

    Covid-19 sounds like a secret agent code name and it sounds like the term was designed to stampede the masses. The Wuhan Flu sounds so fun and festive when you say it out loud. I think you should throw confetti everytime you hear 'Wuhan Flu!!'. Isn't there room for at least a little fun in one's apocolypse? All our imminent deaths are bad enough without the Debby Downers of the world trying to suck out the last bit of joy out of what is left of our lives.

    I don't see a problem in calling it racist, when people keep on sticking to a wrong name despite them knowing better.

    So what.
    Do you want me to post numerous stories how the Chinese American community has been racially addressed by their fellow racist Americans?

    There is plenty of right wing racial motivated terrorism in the US even.
    And here you are that racism in general isn't that massive.
    Sorry to hurt your right wing feelings here, buddy.

    Wasn’t Biden proud a couple months back because Delaware was a slave state?

    So first Biden promises to shut down the American energy industry...killing hundreds of thousands of jobs....and benefiting businesses like a certain corrupt Ukrainian Gas Company.
    a
    and now he is bending over backwards defending China after their country gave the world the Corona virus.....anyone seeing a pattern here? Seems like the countries Biden has a business interest in are getting breaks.

    You want America not te be part of the global economy? lol
    Seems you need to learn that such a thing isn't possible.

    And it's also not logical.
    Covid19 is a mutation of MERS which is a mutation of SARS.
    They aint called the Vietnam virus or Middle east virus.
    It's totally not relevant. 10 to 15% of the common flu is a Corona variation.

    People should know that one. It can mutate... anywhere.

    That is not a criticism that you should make a central platform for your "Vote Trump, not Biden" campaign.

    Why? I don't see Trump trying to cut our energy industry or defending China...it's Biden who has corrupt ties to both China and Ukraine.

    Maybe it can maybe it can't but it did start in Wuhan and Viruses have been named after where they started, this was a dem ploy to attack Trump and everyone with a brain knows it. You saw the video earlier in this thread with hundreds of left wing media types calling it the Wuhan or Chania corona virus, are they racist???

    I just named SARS and MERS. And that's not a name of some place.
    And I think I made my point rather clear that Covid19 is the name, and people unwilling to name it.... chance of racism behind is massive. Racism plays a massive role in the US society. Can't change that reality, even if that hurts your feelings.

    So is the media in the video above racist, simple question? If you say ebola virus are you racist or what about the Spanish flu, I could go on an on.

    As I recall, when Trump instituted a two week quarantine for travelers returning to the states from China in January, Democrats accused him of overreacting and not caring about those in quarantine. Shortly after the quarantine, Trump instituted a travel ban to China. Again Democrats criticized him, saying it was unfair, hurtful to the economy, and xenophobic. But then as Democrats began to realize that the virus really was something that needed to be addressed, they completely reversed course and began to criticize Trump for being inept and not taking the virus seriously. Clearly, they should have directed their criticisms at themselves. At any rate, what I glean from this is that Democrats conduct in this matter is not a concern for the nation, but for disparaging and getting rid of the Trump administration. On the other hand, Trump and his administration are actively and fully involved in protecting the nation.
