    Using ethnic slurs, is being racist.
    Tip: learn some more English.
    Said so in post 409. It still is relevant.

    Chinese isn’t a race. Nor is it a ethnic slur. Anymore then calling something American is an ethnic slur. Quite sad and desperate

    I already responded to this that it's an ethnicity.

    There are plenty of ethnic Chinese harasses with ethnic slurs over Corona.

    Well glad you finally agree it's not a race. It's also an adjective....ie Chinese food

    I am sure there have been.....I remember hearing alot of reports out of the intolerant folks in San Fran. But that has nothing to do with our conversation thus far in discussing the Chinese Virus

    You made it up that it is. I said it's an ethnicity all along.

    No such thing as a Chinese virus. Nothing ethnic Chinese in that virus.
    Media like Fox news and CNN all say it's covid19 or corona.
    It's just not so subtle covert racism to keep saying it like that.

    hahah you repeatedly called it racist.....

    Sure there is, that's what this virus is called, it came from China....hence why it's called the Chinese Virus.

    Yeah, that's the scentific name...and there are lots of corona virus...this was is unique and it came from China.

    As we have already established, Chinese isn't a race. Chinese is an adjective used to discribe things from China....like this virus.

    Because it's racist to use ethnic slurs. We've been through this. HAHA. Your English is still a fail.

    Fox news and CNN don't call it that,.. because that's not it's name.
    All there is, is not so subtle covert racism going on.
    Plenty of examples how ethnic Chinese are harassed over that.

    It's an ethnicity... like ethnic Chinese Americans. The group that is being harassed by people who use not that subtle covert racism.

    I'm up for it, for you to claim there is no such thing as a Chinese American.

    Referring to something as Chinese isn't an ethnic slur....

    depends on context. I told you before. Do you understand what context is?

    I sure do...and in this context naming a virus after it's source is not a racial slur. Nobody is referring to the Chinese people in that context. Don't you understand that?

    your desperation is showing.

    CNN, FOX, Huff Post, Daily Caller are all not referring it as the Chinese virus.
    That is the media from left to right. World Health Organisation: dito.
    It's just a racial slur. Ethnic Chinese Americans know all about it.
    Takes a fanatic racist to keep on sticking to ethnic slurs and claim otherwise.

    That's fine they can call it by their scientific name. Calling something Chinese that came from China is not a racial slur...it's not even about race...a virus has no race.

    You're just deliberately insisting to link the word "Chinese" which make something ethnic, to a virus... despite the media form left to right all call it something else, just like the world health organisation. It's up to you if you're using not so subtle covert racism or not.

    No it doesn’t...it just highlights where it’s from. Chinese Checkers (a German game) isn’t an ethnic slur either.

    you are being desperate.

    It only highlights you're keen to apply an ethnicity to a sickness..... unlike the world health organisation, and unlike the far right and far left media. And being keen on linking an ethnicity to something bad... that's the context needed to qualify it as racist.

    Nope. You're just desperate to dismiss what everybody is calling for no reason.
    Well there is 1 reason. The not so subtle covert racism you like the express.



    Even this site made it a covid19 thing... a sticky thread.
    case closed.

    Nope just the place it’s from. I have no problem if folks want to refer to it as it’s scientific name as well...like I said swine flu, h1n1...whatever you want

    To call it Corona isn't really scientific. You got no excuse to call it something else than the WHO or the right wing or left wing media... other than use it for the not so subtle covert racism.

    How about you go think about how scientific the name covid19 is compared to corona all on your own.

    There's only one reason for him to deliberately and dishonestly confuse geography with ethnicity and that's to deflect from the overt xenophobia he likes to express.

    It's not working...

    Yeah it is, that wha this type of virus is. It’s generic though...it’s like calling something the flu...it’s not specific to the type.

    Doesn't really matter. The media and the WHO say what the name is. You still got no excuse to call it something else, other than to sneak in no so subtle covert racism.

    Chinese isn’t a race. The media has no sayin what it’s called. Although they have referred to it as the Chinese Virus.

    the WHO gets to give it its scientific name, but we can certainly give it a laymen name, so we know which string of corona we are discussing.
