notagenius
03.25.20 | @Nomos
The first outbreak location is definitely the source? Go learn some pathology and history. the 1918 flu came from US navy and ended up calling it "Spanish flu". what a joke.
According to your logic, if the patient zero did come from US, do US need to cover China's losses?
Politicians play word games, take advantage of the opportunity to demagogue to incitement to racism, to remove his own responsibility. You really think Trump is a moron? He knows exactly what he's doing. Look at your reply. He's clearly getting what he wants. who is the real moron? |
notagenius
03.25.20 | Do you really care about morality, nationality, and politics? It's just that people are uncomfortable at home and their INTERESTS are compromised. These are often the best times for politicians to exploit the psychological weaknesses of the people. Without specifically attacking any of you, I don't expect you to understand. it is Egoism after all. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
03.25.20 | Calling this shit china flu is moronic, irresponsible, and derogatory and people should know better by now [2] |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | Calling corona virus the China virus is as dumb as calling the swine flue the America flu. Never saw people doing the latter though.
Hmmmmmmmm |
TabulaRasa6
03.25.20 | The funniest thing to come out of this whole business is China trying to blame the U.S. for the virus when they hid the disease's existence for months after discovery. Hahahaha |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | Also China handled the virus fucking magnificently. Built specialised hospitals in a matter of days, use drones to instruct people to stay indoors, police and government workers brought supplies to the disabled and elderly, government workers also brought supplies to those in isolated regions, they disinfected the streets, workers had adequate care to stay home, etc.
America and by extension Canada, Australia, Europe, etc. all had months to prepare for this to spread. We all knew about it. I fucking knew about it. But nobody did anything until the start of March? China is blameless for the incompetence of other nations. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
03.25.20 | U.s. tried to hide spanish flu during the war too. It is called Spanish flu because Spain was the first country with the balls to report on it, and other nations decided it would be alright if we blamed it on them FOR MORALE! |
TabulaRasa6
03.25.20 | Oh, I'm not trying to say China is responsible for it spreading. That is entirely on other nations. If anything, they should pin the blame for it spreading on other nations rather than pretending it started in the U.S. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
03.25.20 | So alongside what gallantin is saying, its hypocritical to call out china for trying to cover it up and to call it china flu |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | Where do you draw the line for eating animals?
Where does the line separate between moral and immoral?
Do you apply these same principals to the spread of diseases like E. coli from ground beef, BSE (bovine spongiform encephalitis) from beef cattle, Trichinosis from pork, Salmonella from poultry, Scrapie from lamb and mutton? |
TabulaRasa6
03.25.20 | Eating bats really doesn't bother me. This disease's existence is what sucks. |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | Point is, eating "exotic meats" isn't a practice that needs to be punished because of this. There's no shortage of pandemic and illnesses that stem from meat consumptions and animals that weren't foreseen and still affect people in Western countries. People just like to use the "they're eating bats!" thing as a way to excuse their sinephobia. |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | "i draw the line at animals bred purely for the purpose of eating
if you're pulling an animal out of their habitat just for a feed, you better be an individual or person belonging to a tribe that shares the same habitat as those animals
the biggest issue is not that consumption of these animals takes place, but that it's become a kind of symbol of wealth to be able to indulge in eating endangered and exotic animals
chinese traditional medicine is rejected by a large part of the western world, yet we turn a blind eye to this shit..."

03.25.20 | communism abuses nobody
fascism abuses a select few and uplifts others |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | ah yes the famous quote from Marx's manifesto "enslave and torture the rich" |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | You seem to be misinterpreting "overthrow the ruling class" with "abuse and torture the ruling class"
Marx did not call for torture and slavery
An armed revolution does not call for torture and slavery
Again, see Cuba, 8000 deaths over 40 years of Castro, because it was about giving power back to the people, not about torturing the ruling class. |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | Capital doesn't encourage torture and slavery either |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | Communism is inherently compassionate. Something you seem to lack. |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | Communism is not about punishment
Your equation of fascist practices with those of communism are dangerous, wrongheaded, and, well, you know, fascist. You're a fascist. |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | Compassion for a select few while torturing and enslaving others does nothing but reinforce a new fascist state of inequality and power.
Your ideas would do nothing but just swap the system around and bring about the exact same problems. |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | There's nothing wrong with guillotine'ing the rich and ousting them from power, by force. There's nothing wrong with forcing them off the land if they resist.
I'm just not into torturing and enslaving them, because, you know, I'm not a fascist. |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | I was the first one in this thread to suggest killing the rich tho, why are you suddenly equating me with a centrist liberal |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | You're thinking at two ends of extremes here. You can't seem to see anything in-between two sides of extremist fascism. |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | I'm not giving the rich any credit, what leeway do you think I'm giving them? There's a difference between wanting the rich overthrown and executed and wanting them enslaved and tortured for generations. |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | The irony is that you think slavery and torture isn't fascism |
Nomos2
03.25.20 | Genuinely curious what happened to the Covid19 guy who just had a million posts here lol |
Gallantin
03.25.20 | Shit now look at what's happened |
notagenius
03.25.20 | ah, my thanks to pots.
this is what happened in China
1) Normal people stay home on their own initiative, no one complains, because the news reports suddenly got really serious and everyone was afraid of the unknown.
2) There was a webcam at the outside of the door of the infected person and their contacts, and they were not allowed to go out for no reason. Reddit had some carefully-selected items which was not typical. Some of the infected were still trying to escape. They were forced to hold on to the quarantine.
3) A lot of people died in Wuhan during that time, and a lot of people from safe areas donated money and supplies
4) Both the individual economy and the national economy have taken a heavy toll
We don't know where exactly the virus came from, and it was complete nonsense of saying it was from the US... The vast majority of people in China don't eat wild animals. And it's not the bats that spread it directly to people, it's another host animal in between, and then bring it to people. In fact, in the traditional Chinese diet, there isn't much meat in the diet. (maybe 100g-120g per person, per day). It wasn't hidden for long, 2 weeks at most, every country won't make a big deal out of it when there are only a dozen cases. And then overnight, the whole country knew about it. Basically everyone changed their lifestyles overnight and focused their attention on it. |
Nomos2
03.25.20 | p disappointing to see moderation here is still: "I'm mad and I don't like what you're saying based on my interpretation, therefore banned and I deleted all your posts, no discussion"
unless he'd said something grossly offensive and immediately banworthy and I missed discussion, I only caught a glimpse before I woke up and refreshed the page.
Still fucking baffling that wet markets were allowed to survive given that SARS was likely originated in one and it's a sanitary nightmare. If COVID19 did indeed flourish in one, then it doesn't matter how little of the country and how many of their elite are the ones eating these tortured animals, they should be held accountable in some regard, like partial financial restitution would be a start. If it can measurably be sourced to a wet market. Because then it's a China Virus and no amount of posturing and internet virtue signaling can change that ;) |
