I saw multiple videos of Asians being beaten bad by students in ultra liberal Berkeley and Oakland. These attacks aren’t mainstream because........? Well we all know why.

It was called by the name it originated from. What's the big deal?

Yeah, seen a few videos of African Americans knocking out Asians on the street. Leftwing media won’t report these physical assaults.

Nothing wrong. The left just want to blame Trump and his supporters for no other reason than being butthurt from 2016.

That’s all.

Still waiting for the refugee doctor to present the proof. It’s been 2 weeks now.
Or do you have other evidence?

Calling this the China virus isn't doing anyone favors at all. All it is doing is making life worse for the asian-americans who live and contribute to this nation. The WHO specifically called it COVID-19 because the whole world is in this together, not just China. Trump and the government need to man up and just use science to solve this problem as being xenophobic isn't going get us much good.

P.S. Also Trump bootlicked Xi at the start of this pandemic, its not like he deserves to blame China for all our problems.

Feb. 7, Remarks before Marine One departure:
Its probably antifa attacking Asian-American entrepreneurs.

Or its the general increase in violence caused by the lefts attacks on the police.

Or people going nuts from the lockdown triggered by fear of the Chinese virus.

The following are diseases that were named after population or place...

West Nile Virus
Guinea Worm
Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever
Lyme Disease
Ross River Fever
Omsk Hemorrhagic Fever
Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever
Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) (camel flu)
Marburg Virus Disease
Norovirus
Zika Fever
Japanese Encephalitis
German Measles
Spanish Flu
Lassa Fever
Legionnaire’s Disease
Valley Fever

I'm sure you're outraged enough to not use the names of these diseases, right? Why are you not starting threads about these diseases, too?
Don't forgot the Hong Kong Flu of 69-71 which killed more than the Wuhan virus has this time or the Asian Flue of 58-59 which killed over twice as many as the Wuhan virus.

IF TRUMP WAS GOING TO POLITICIZE THE NAME OF THE VIRUS HE SHOULD HAVE CALLED IT

THE WUHAN VIRUS
OR
THE CCP VIRUS

NOT "THE CHINA VIRUS"

yes he may have called it the Wuhan virus a few times but he calls it the China Virus 50,000 more times.
China is a huge country with a huge population and that is not wise, just going to inspire people to blame Chinese people in general

"The Spanish Flu" is another unwise name. The pandemic is conventionally marked as having begun on 4 March 1918, with the recording of the case of Albert Gitchell, an army cook at Camp Funston in Kansas, United States

The Chinese Doctor claimed that China planned from the beginning and created/modified the virus in a lab with plans to release it to the US and on other countries. That is not what I'm saying. I'm saying however the virus originated and got out into the population in China, from the lab accidentally, from nature and the market etc, China hid it from the rest of the world and locked down Wuhan and intentionally allowed the virus to spread to other countries. That's just fact.

And the Spanish flu is believed to most likely came from China spread by Chinese laborers during WWI transported across Canada and to Europe and the virus brought back to the US, and before that the Black Death plague that killed half the people in Europe. China been spreading disease and causing a lot of deaths for centuries now.
