it was 100 years ago....
this kind of faggotry was made possible by the absurd amount of soy in almost every food aviable
"Winston is an Outer Party member, which is basically this story's version of a middle class. As a records editor at the Ministry of Truth, his job is to literally rewrite history, revising old newspaper articles so they're in line with the Party's current vision of the truth. The original articles are tossed in an incinerator, never to be seen again..."
so? we stil call it that today and nobody gets buthurt
So was the rape of nanking you fucking whiner.
>hey guys we used to call them niggers back in the days when social equality wasn't developed as well so it must be okay now!
OP you're fucking retarded
What ab the BLACK PLAGUE? Thanks Obama. I bet it "din du nuffin" either, just a regular ole cold on its way to college
My pensu is chubbing
so what? nobody yells racism or demands for a new name when they speak about the spanish flu. IT LITERALLY HAS THE NAME OF THE PLACE OF ORIGIN, NOTHING ELSE FFS
spain was the only one honestly reporting numbers at the time so it became known as the spanish flu, everyone was sick with it
For the same reason french fries aren't from France. They're actually from Belgian
drink the soy fag
Wuhan Flu okay. China Flu bad.
People are such assholes.
>CURRENT YEAR!
Fuck off, leftist scum.
They agreed after the Ebola virus that they would no longer name viruses over the location of suspected origin, because of the discrimination that takes place for years after.
Trump, however, is trying to take a potshot at the Chinese government. Unstatesmanlike, even if criticism for their original reaction is warranted.
They eventually did throw everything at it though and have got on top of it for now. Whereas Trump is still allowing people like spring breakers to congregate and party.
if I say nigger today its racist if I say spanish flu today its fine. no one cares. its not the same thing, moron.
Chineses food bad
If you want a vision of the future, imagine a thumb shoved up an ass - forever.
Is this the result from being spoiled and fapping non stop? Dumb ass hat, mens jeans, and fucking piano bar / blacklight bowling shoes.....jeeeesus what the fuck
lets make batsoup virus a thing now
even better, we claim its not offensive because it doesnt have the country of origin in it and anyone can consume bat soup regardless of their nationality (even though they are the only ones who do it)
How could any culture come to the conclusion that eating bats is somehow a good thing?
>Spanish flu
China made it to bring down our economy and kill millions, damn, yellowskins, we should killed them in ww2!
It’s called being progressive. They didn’t call it the English plague or American aids. Just because you found a disease named after a country doesn’t mean they should all be named after countries. Hope that clears it up for all you retarded 20 year old conservatives out there
Bats are a food source for humans in some areas. Bats are consumed in various amounts in some regions within some European, African, Asian, and Pacific Rim countries and cultures, including Vietnam, Seychelles, Indonesia, Palau, Thailand, China,and Guam. In Guam, Mariana fruit bats (Pteropus mariannus) are considered a delicacy.
Correct. The spanish flu started in china too, but the only reason we call it the spanish flu was because that was what the newspapers decided to call it at the time. It was all over the world, theres no point in referring to it as a location. In fact, calling it the chinese flu makes you sound really ignorant. But people here take pride in being ignorant fuck tards of course. Trump is a fucking retard like you
>missing the point
Do you want Ebola?, cuz that's how you get Ebola
Imagine if it originated in Guam. We would get to call it "this American virus"
No because even that’s wrong you idiot. The Spanish Flu is only called that because the warring nations in WW1 didn’t want to add to the frenzy of people dying from disease in a war. Spain was neutral and reported it so everyone just jumped on and blamed it on them. Idiot
is definitely actual racism happening over all this, which is horrible.. But the China Communist Party is also trying to pass the rumor narrative that the virus started in the USA. Whos to say they aren't pushing the 'everyone else is racist just for talking about it's origin' viewpoint to take further pressure off the fact that they failed to contain an outbreak and also failed to cover it up? If Russia can influence our opinion over an election, I'm positive China can do the same about a virus.
I don't care, it's still totally fucked up.
Just because it's somewhat popular doesn't make it right.
>they should all be named after countries
not sayin that. just sayin that when they are it isn't racist. unless a libtard wants some reason to accuse republicans of being racist.
whining about something that small makes you sound like a cuck. I dont understand how could you feel so proud defending literal genocides but hey ate least you are not a biggot, right? your wife's boyfriend must love you
Wake up. The lying POS marketer is rebranding COVID-19 to Chinese Flu to deflect blame for his inaction, and trying to convince the public 'CHINA' is to BLAME, not his IGNORANCE. Works with his base.
President Trump made his first public comments about the coronavirus on Jan. 22,
in a television interview from Davos with CNBC’s Joe Kernen. The first American
case had been announced the day before, and Kernen asked Trump, “Are there
worries about a pandemic at this point?”
The president responded: “No. Not at all. And we have it totally under control. It’s
one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It’s going to be just fine.”
To visit the Ebola River?. Okay, but maybe in a few months, not many flights to the DRC from the UK right now
It has a name already. I’m pretty sure society can wrap their brains around the name “Coronavirus”. Why get cute and rename it unless you have an ulterior motive? It’s also funny how it’s only being called that in the United States.
It has nothing to do with the country of origin and has everything to do with rebranding. If it’s from China, it implies it’s their fault. So when a bunch of Americans die and American businesses tank, we can blame them and not the ineptitude of our president.
It's too late now you dummy.
Every flu (except for one that came from Vietnam) has come from China. EVERY ONE OF THEM.
Chinks are filthy bug people
I think it would still be the Guam Virus, like how some people call covid the Wuhan Virus.
The point being that some dude said Chinese people are the only ones who eat bats. They aren't
>Spanish flu
Came from China
you just proved it has nothing to do with racism then. Only libs are using it as race bait to push their agenda, and as always, useful imbeciles help them by repeating their bullshit
Trumps butt hurt because America got BTFO by China in the trade deal and now got BTFO by China Virus
Trump lies about the virus the same way he lies about the trade deal
Retarded liberals, that's your answer.
>to Chinese Flu to deflect blame for his inaction,
so the solution is to call him racist? try thinking something all the way through some time.
its was the whuan coronavirus, THEN it was rebranded as the COVID-19 to avoid POSSIBLE racism. If anithing, renaming it the chinese flu would be almost poetic justice
Coronavirus isn't its name. It is a range of viruses. The common cold is a coronavirus.
Covid-19 is its actual name. Named by the World Health Organisation in a way that will stop people from the origin country experiencing racism in future years.
Well, heaven forbid Trump takes responsibility right? He sat on his hands for 5 weeks
The whole point if this thread is that Trump is calling it the Chinese virus....
>chinese flu 2020
racist slur which is shunned in preference to scientific terminology
>spanish flue 1918
racist slur which is accepted due to political tensions.
there isnt much difference expect for the fact people are smarter now and have the internet, and far more intolerant of unwarrented racism
fun fact, spanish flu didnt even start in spain, it was just labeled spanish to defame and denounce spain.
Oh, okay. Well, just dig in then. Nothing like bat soup on a cold winter's day.
He's right like he's always been, it's a Chinese virus meant to kill the US
imagine thinking that one government dude can eliminate and incinerate documents worldwide.
what your suggesting only works if they have the only copies of all of these things.
The question is' "is it racist?" the answer is, "no, it clearly isn't." Siting on his hands isn't a reason to call him racist. but when did a libbitch gave any fucks about reason?
To be fair, Coronavirus is the family name, which also includes SARS and MERS. Continuing to just call it coronavirus is too broad.
You make no sense.
There’s a disease called Coronavirus.
President starts calling it something else.
And that’s not weird? He should just keep doing it? Why doesn’t he just call it by it’s name? Why didn’t he pick an arbitrary name?
It’s a pointed gesture that creates a racial bias. If you just stuck to the original name, not only would it be easier, no one would wonder why it’s So important people know it’s from China. Stop being a fucking moron trying to “own libs” and grow the fuck up. There’s literally no other reason to rename it other than to further a personal agenda.
Trump fucking sucks, and this is par for the course for him. Cue “hurrr durrr Obama Clinton durrrrr”
Wtf are you talking about? He's good at marketing.That's it.
Take your dog whistle someplace else.
The main problem is he's using the term as accusatory and derogatory. It's a rhetorical technique. Pass the blame to an entire country rather than take responsibility for his poor decision-making skills and slow action in the face of objective data. It's not just about the misnomer, it's about his intentions in using it the way he does - blame an entire race for problems he made worse for the sake of his ego and reelection.
Does that make some sense?
The virus strarted there (for poor highene or possibly man made)
The number of cases where modified
They didnt quarantine the whole country
they didnt stop the flights
yeah its totally not their fault, its DRUMFS fault
spanish flu didnt start in spain you dumb motherfucker.
Ebola was 6 years ago. Named after the African river where it started what’s your point faggot
That statement if completely subjective and it fails to prove anything else more than "it could hurt some peoples feelings"
People are idiots like this "doctor" (attached) who has time to tweet 50 times a day.
Easy enough
Trump said it so it must be etc etc fill in the bullshit at leisure
your retarded ass just read that on this thread
>Does that make some sense?
no. If any of that was actually true, it should be just as applicable to Spanish Flu.
They caused trillions of dollars harm to their own economy if that was actually true (it isn't).
Their economy is dependent on selling goods to the United States too.
Trump makes up a new name for a virus and your argument is that the libs are using it???? Lol wtf
I'm certain the virus was engineered. Being contagious for so long before showing symptoms is why it spreads so easily, and is too good to be true if you're a fan of bioweapons.
ITT libs prove how delusional and one-sided they are.
They call it the Wuhan virus in China its self
