    Africa is not a race.

    But, 'I am hereby banning ALL muslims' --Donald Trump

    Is bigotry.

    Except he didn't say nor do that. He suspended travel for individuals who primarily happened to be Muslim from 7 specific nations comprising a total of 12% of the worlds Muslim population.

    If he wanted to ban Muslims then he would have banned Asians outright since the majority of all Muslims on Earth are actually in Asia, not in any of the 7 nations he banned travel from in the Middle East.

    Plus Muslim isn't a race either.

    That's why I wrote 'bigotry' instead of 'racist'.

    He wanted to ban all muslims at first, but was pressured to tone it down.

    Funny how he didn't ban the one country from which all the 9/11 terrorists came, Saudi Arabia.

    But, alas, no can do, he has a hotel there.

    I don't believe I said it was. Let's play a game, fill in the blank: Africa is a continent populated by __________.

    (Hint: the correct answer is 'Africans.')

    The president of the United States just banned whom? People from ___________, who are known by their demonym __________s

    Is racism and xenophobia.

    Yes, it sure was: religious bigotry.

    Now, people who called out Trump for his ham-fisted 'Muslim ban' were correct in criticizing him. However, many of those same people also accused him of racism and xenophobia when he banned flights from China early last year in response to a virus we knew very little about that was quickly spreading across the globe that originated in... are you ready for this? CHINA! Including... are you ready for this? One Joseph Robinette Birden, Jr.. So if it was racism and xenophobia then, it is racism and xenophobia now.

    I'm with you there. I am no fan of the way America has ignored Saudi Arabia's roles in all of this mess from Bush Jr to Obama to Trump. But that's a different topic.

    Point is, the media treatment of this decision by Biden is flat out hypocrisy. Trump was openly called a xenophobe and a racist by both the media and other politicians for wanting to ban Chinese from entering the US last year when COVID was breaking out due to COVID originating in China. Yet a new variant of COVID spawns in Africa and Biden makes the same decision to ban travel to the US from 7 African countries yet no such criticism is given to Biden by any of the aforementioned.

    We can play semantics all day long but the fact of the matter is that the racial composition of the nations he banned are primarily black. If we want to get scientifically technical, 99.6% of the population of one of the nations of Biden's travel ban, Zimbabwe, are African, Negroid/Black. Why aren't the media/politicians calling Biden a xenophobe or racist for choosing to ban travel to the US from these nations? How is this any different than Trump wanting to ban travel to the US from China?

    Sniffy McFingers has a loooooong history of racism. It fought to keep the blacks out of its kids' schools when it was a senator, stating it didn't want Beau and Hunter in a "racial jungle." Later it observed one had to speak with a thick Indian accent to own a 7-11, and then most recently rebuked Americans of African descent who were thinking of not voting for it, stating "you ain't black." It never uses the word "ain't" when addressing the whites. And let's not forget about its shock and surprise about how "clean and articulate" it found Barack Obama to be, as if Barry should have shown up to the debates with a gold chain and sportin drawers (that means low pants and your underwear is visible). So this should come as no surprise to anyone that it finally found an excuse to ban blacks.

    Hello? Is this thing on??? Sniffy McFingers (aka the Commander in Chief) called BadOrangeMan a hysterical xenophobe specifically FOR BANNING TRAVEL FROM CHINA in response to the virus back in February of last year. FFS, pay attention.

    Not only did trump impose a travel ban from China last year, BIDEN CALLED HIM A XENOPHOBE for doing it! Seriously, I wish this was joke, but you can't make this stuff up.

    But, according to Biden it was racist when Trump did it. Specifically when he banned travel from China early last year in the beginning of this dumpster fire.

    Of course it is not racist. I don't know if it's actually good policy or not, nor its efficacy at preventing the spread of a virulent microbe that exists to replicate itself and mutate in as many hosts as possible. I actually predicted this would come back to bite Biden in his freshly-probed bony ass the moment he tweeted it. Such good theater.

    Africa has brown people in it, so it's OBVIOUSLY racism.

    Check with the Progressive Leftist playbook, you'll find it's true.

    if leftists were people of honor, they should view this as a racist act, just as they viewed trump's travel ban on china due to covid and his travel ban on some terrorist states earlier in his admin.

    Yes. Trump immediately banned foreign travel from China where Obama, Biden and Fauci funded the development of COVID. After the Obama-Biden-Fauci flu spread to the Southern EU and Democrats traveled thru NYC to Madrid to celebrate International Women's day and returned to spread their newly acquired disease, Trump banned travel from Europe. Was that the change in policy you referred to?

    Banning Travel (without regard to race, creed, etc ) for a real virus is not the same thing as banning people for imaginary 'terrorism'.

    Note that Trump banned 'muslims' for terrorism (he used that word in his attempt to ban) with 100% of the 9/11 terrorists were from Saudi Arabia, the country he did NOT ban travel from. Why? he had a hotel there.

    Travel bans because of a virus which poses an existential threat cannot be construed as 'xenophobia' or 'racism'.

    Trump has proven his bigotry and racism too many times in too many ways above and beyond these bans.

    Some people confuse 'racism' with 'bigotry' and use the terms incorrectly.

    The term' 'African American' is generally understood to be persons of the black race.

    Of course, American whites and Arabs born in Africa could claim they are 'African American' and be technically correct. But, most will not do that
    because of the association that 'African American' implies.

    That being said, 'Africa' is a continent, not a race.

    Your problem is?

    There are plenty of words that are "generally understood to mean black people". That doesn't mean we should be using them.
