Coronavirus is not an excuse for you to be xenophobic to Asians, especially Chinese.

No matter how much you try to justify by saying "Oh it's because of the coronavirus," you cannot hide your racist ass.

Coronavirous is going to die down soon. It's just like how they scared everyone with swine flue.

@Lostpoet I hope it is.

@Lostpoet It's how the media sell subscriptions... By scaring the shit out of people are bringing out their darker nature.

SW-User

@Quizzical Well, people are dying because of the virus every day, so I wouldn't just call it something the media made up. But people shouldn't let the virus bring out their worst natures. It's fucking sad.

@SW-User Oh, I realise that there are folks dying from it... But the media (especially as I've noted the US media) do LOVE to blow things way beyond their original proportions.

Look at the fuss they made because of Ebola. A totally disproportionate reaction.

Crises need calm heads, not fear-mongering and finger pointing.

SW-User

@Quizzical You had a point. Making people panic from it is not going to stop the spread of the virus.

@SW-User Exactly...

Can you imagine how today's media would have handled the 'Spanish' Flu? It would have been the end of the world to them!

SW-User

@Quizzical Lol The Bubonic plague would've been quite a magnificent sight to see as well.

@SW-User True, lol 😂 🤗
