White House: Trump did not direct virus testing slowdown, does not regret 'kung flu' remark

What's your point, it was there since 2019

Did the racist intent sort of fade away over time then? Maybe you think racism doesn't exist, or is just a storm in a teacup?

“All of a sudden”? I think people have always pointed out what nonsense, lies, gaslighting, and abuse this chaos administration is giving the public.

You interpreted my post to fit your narrow minded narrative. This is about one man saying the words "Kung Flu" and folks getting hysterical over it. There's a pretty famous line Regan said during a speech about hippies,  A hippie is someone who looks like Tarzan, walks like Jane and smells like Cheetah.’ And no one burned the country down. 

No I Interpreted your post the way you meant it. You held up the fact that people laughed at Archie Bunker in the 1970s and that people are not laughing at Donald Trump today and you wish all the "Libs" would sit down and shut up and go back to a simpler time. And I held the mirror up to you and told you Archie Bunker was laughed at BECAUSE he was in a sitcom and not a real person with real power and responsibility, unlike your boy Donald Trump who is (and God I cant believe I have to write this) The Leader Of The Free World. Even in the 1970s if RIchard Nixon, Gerald Ford or Jimmy Carter was doing and saying the things that Donald Trump is doing and saying today, they would have been labeled as racist as well and Archie Bunker would not have been so funny.

I'd have to agree I don't find "Kung Flu" wildly offensive, racist and it is unlikely to be a precursor to the wholesale extermination of the Asian race.

 

In fact many Asian Americans don't find it offensive:

 

“As an Asian-American, I’m much more concerned about the media and Democrat’s refusal to acknowledge China’s lack of transparency and culpability in the spread of this terrible disease than I am with the president’s reference to it,” Yee said in a statement."

Of course quasi-marxist fruit loops like George Takei find it offensive but I suspect that is more because they hate Trump for other reasons. They're queer, gay or extremely left-wing or feminists.

 

Kungfu is a Chinese martial art. The flu came from China. How is this racist?

Views are shared by few and mostly his base. KC's corrected herself after Trump's double down. That's the nature of Trump's surrogates who will bend to new lows to be in line.

“...rallies...”.  Huh?  Really?  So why are the Democrats supporting the huge Marxist “Black Lives Matter” and ANTIFA street rallies and defending their “protests”.  The virus chooses which rallies to spread in ? 

   Ohhhh Kay 

You clearly have no clue about the difference between a "rally" and a "protest"!

Not about the causes, not about the effects and not about anything else!

Maybe you could stop throwing around words like "Marxist", if you already have problems with far less complicated terms!

When I was 18 I asked for 'flied lice' at a Chinese restaurant. I guess you don't think that's offensive either.  I'm older and wiser now. Some people just never grow up.

You quote an explicit 45 fan. Token Asian because the vast majority of American Asians oppose him and even more so now. 

You refer to Takei as a fruit loop. So you're into homophobia as well. Nobody is surprised.

The core 45 base. A base of hatred, bigotry, and ignorance. He's the George Wallace of our times but someone got lucky and got elected. The country got very unlucky.

He's absolutely right, the BLM people are Marxists.

 

"Taking aim at Patrisse Cullors, the GOP played a clip from a 2015 interview in which she identified herself and fellow co-founders of the organization as "trained Marxists." "I actually do think we have an ideological frame. We are trained Marxists," the ad, released on Thursday, shows Cullors saying."

This leftist antifa marxist BLM cabal could be a God-send for Trump and get him re-elected.

Why? She only providing the BLM framework so that the movement continue to be relevant going forward. She is not the vanguard. Her ideology is about social and economic inequality.

If Trump wins by a majority, it only proves that Americans are racist in supporting a racist president who is not only anti-Chinese but also anti-Muslims. He's equivalent to Germany Hitler whose supporters are anti-jewish racist.

There is almost zero chance that he will win by a majority of votes. He didn't last time and he's much more reviled now. But he still has a small chance of winning via the electoral college.

Did Biden set up a "overrun stage" for 40.000 people?

Did Biden disregard all measures against COVID19?

Did Biden make up BS about pillaging hordes of ANTIFA, keeping people from attending his rally?

You're spreading lies now. Biden isn't holding rallies now in the middle of the worst pandemic since 1918. He's not interested in hosting super spreader events like the irresistible narcissist carnival barker president.

Biden couldn't stay lucid long enough to string all that together. So it's a moot point.

 

In related news, Biden hasn't run a marathon or competed in a push up contest, either.

Atlanta public schools used "Kung Flu". No outrage. Check out what's the number one search result for "atlanta public schools kung flu" (didn't use quotation marks on search).

 

https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=atlanta+public+schools+kung+flu

 

For some reason, "page not available" comes up on the Atlanta public schools web site when you click the link.

 

Leftist selective outrage is hilarious. No wonder people laugh at them.

Yes, how dare people demonize a group that throws feces, bottles of urine, assaults cops, accosts old people trying cross the street and riots, loots and pillages. They're just friendly little fuzzballs of love.

Yes. They need a fake boogeyman. Facts and reality don't matter. Otherwise, the USA might actually finally after hundreds of years waiting finally deal with the legacy of slavery and the viciousness of structural racism against black people.
