    And a big part of that I think is because of this nonsense that it's somehow racist to remind people where this shit started.
    I live abroad, and I can 100% guarantee America gets shit on non-stop for everything.
    I’m not defending how China handled it. But to say it was unleashed by the Chinese govt? I don’t agree.

    It's a political statement though, not a racial one.

    When did I bring race into this? It has nothing to do with race.

    By the time anyone was really aware of the full extent, 5m+ already left Wuhan for Chinese New Year.
    Did the virus come from a communist country? Yup. Unleashed by the Chinese govt? Meh, poor choice of words.
    If you are talking about trying to cover it up, every country tries to cover shit up.
    Let me try again in a way where you can't parse every syllable...is China responsible for the plague that's happening worldwide right now?

    That is one of the funniest things I have seen in a while. Holy shit.

    I like to think he's being ironic, but he looks like the exact type of person to wear this shirt unironically.

    Yes and no. That’s like saying is The Republic of Congo responsible for Ebola? Simply originating from a country does that mean that country is responsible for it especially when it deals with wildlife.

    Going back is China responsible for this pandemic? I believe they are partly to blame. They could have taken measures to control the outbreak better. But based on reports, this was spreading out of China before they even knew about it. Also there hasn’t been any hard evidence that it originated in that food market.
