Speculation, imagination, conspiracy theory. Or, it’s just a joke?

Reverse xenophobia most likely.

How many polocks does it take to change a light bulb? 3, one to hold the light bulb and 2 to turn the ladder.

What do you call a farmer in WV with a sheep under each arm? A pimp.

Wuhan..chinese... covid... all legitimate ways of referring to the virus. Viruses are traditionally referred to by the region of origin. There was NOTHING racist about it, until MSM made it so in order to attack the current administration...

Back on topic... OP... the question isnt where to get the tail lights, but rather... WHY??? Lol

Just like MERS (Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome). Wuhan virus, China virus, these I understand. But “Chinese” refers to the people, regardless of their geographical location. I think there’s a difference.

While I would normally agree with you, at the time it was called the chinese virus, it was primarily only in China and large majority infected were in fact... chinese. There still was no racist intent... stop watching CNN and msdnc

I dont want to clog up this thread anymore than it is. I posted a video in the Corona Virus thread

My opinion is not based on the media.

No harm done. I am merely pointing to others, that while you guys may not have racist intents, plenty that utter the same words do, so we can’t just discount the heightened sensitivity from some, even if they are in the minority. That’s all.

But my point is that before the media hyped it up to be racist people were ok with it. After the media started saying it was racist, people began to lose their mind and started doing stupid things. See how that works? They need to be held accountable.

Do you have the farmers phone number? I'm getting kind of lonely. :nutswinger:

Wow I actually didn’t this debate was going on in the public. I don’t subscribe to cable at at all, so I wasn’t aware of this until now.

No wonder things got a little hot in the other thread.

What ever happened to the the "farmersonly.com" commercials? Miss those... :shakes head:

It is very common to name disasters of all sorts after the region where they do the most damage or are first detected. Eg, Spanish Flu, Ebola, etc. I see nothing racist about calling it the Wuhan Flu. If it had started in Chicago, London, or Kiev, we'd have probably named it after those places. YMMV
