    I can't control that racists will run with it like that. But the truth is that that's where and why it originated because of those certain practices.
     
  3. no that is not the truth its a racist trope, do one minute of research before being racist please

    Bill is an idiot about A LOT if things but I agree with him on this. The virus is likely from bats (the lady that wrote the book on how Pandemics start stated that being in such close proximity to bats/other exotic animals is the cause because of deforestation. Eating them is probably pretty dangerous wouldn't you say?

    I cherry pick from him because he has some good points for sure.

    I love that the initial awful post was the bottom of the page so that, when I opened this thread, I got to have that dramatic pause before going to the next page.

    Most comic books I read don’t have page turns paced that good.

    You don't need to be emotional about facts. I just think people need to be more careful now that we know what causes Pandemics.

    Yeah, experts say the virus came from bats but what they also say is that an intermediate host was needed for it to jump from bats to humans. It wasn't from the chinese "practice of eating bats" as you called it.

  18. it's bullshit and you don't know what you're talking about and you're being racist and doubling and tripling down on it, I hope all your friends on here don't agree!

    It’s not enough to sound like Maher; you also gotta sound like:

    It’s not about how “nice” you are about being this wrong. Please, just stop & reassess while there’s still a possibility of apologizing & salvaging.

    I just feel like if I try to be real about absolutely anything and not jump on every single bandwagon I get bullied and people get nasty to me and claim me to be things I'm not. People need to not jump to conclusions about me because of one post. It's allowed to be discussed. I am a liberal that believes in discussion and nuance. It is something we are losing a lot of these days ands it's really fucking scary.

    Memories are nice, but that's all they are. Prestigious

    This isn’t about being real. This is about you being factually incorrect and racist about the origins of the virus. Please, stop and think and look back on this.

    you're being "bullied" because your "nuance" was just revealing your anti-chinese racism, which is bad and not good
     
  25. what scares me is people being beaten while yelled at about eating bat soup. a lot more than you being called racist does, thats just me though
