The Left Is Failing at Kung Flu Fighting
Flopping Aces ^ | 03-19-20 | DrJohn

Posted on 03/19/2020 7:45:00 AM PDT by Starman417

The Chinese Coronavirus is bringing out a particularly ugly side to The Radical Left. They're losing the war of their primary narrative of Orange Man Bad, and don't care what the consequences of their actions are. I could easily go on for a few thousand words of how they're irresponsibly whipping up hysteria among their gullible followers (and I'm not suggesting not taking precautions, just to not panic), how they've become the useful idiots for the Communists that rule the Chinese people, nor the stupidity and hypocrisy of suggesting that referring to the virus by the geographic area from which it originates as... wait for it... you knew this was inevitable... RAAAAAAACIST! And yes, I now that theire are five "A"s in racist, but I decided that they earned a brownie point and get an extra "A" this time.

The one angle that I'm looking at that hasn't been addressed in the flood of current articles on this topic is why the MSM's collective focus has shifted to "Racism". Why? Very simply, their all consuming reason for existing since November 2016 is "Cheeto Hitler EVIL!!!", facts or reality be damned. The current epidemic was that golden ring that they've been desparately lunging for for three years of ending the Trump presidency. They hoped that they could blame the virus's spread on President Trump - no dice, at least not outside their bubble. Shriekimg at the market drop while ignoring any rebound? Nah. Or how about the desparation of some loon on MS-13NBC calling for arresting our president on homicide charges? Even CNN hasn't touched this one. Yet. So why the need for racism to be the next failed narrative?

Very simply, the MSM knows they have nothing left. Their efforts to turn the American people against their president have failed so badly that they last arrow they have left in their poisoned quiver is so tired that even Leftist icon Jon Stewart long ago warned them that their race card was overdrawn. It is literally all that they have left. As you saw from the link earlier in the post the media and Vichy Conservatives is now declaring a simple term that they used for months is now racist. Yes, seriously. Forget the obvious questions here, such as "When did your own behavior suddenly become racist, and are you ready to apologize?" Or how about, "Maybe we should look at who's funding all of these sudden Sino-philes?" Or even, "Hey oh great and exhalted Party of Science - when did China, or Wuhan, suddenly become the identity of every Asian on this planet? I'm sure that the Japanese and Koreans in particular would love for you to tell them that they're all Chinese."

Let them have at it. They're voices keep diminishing, and when we come out on the other side of this we will probably see a reckoning day.

If the Left/Democrats had been in control, they would have behaved like the Chinese ruling oligarchy did. After all, an oligarchy like the Chinese is the Democrats’ dream.

Exactly. We’d have 10K dead by now, if Hillary were in control. She would say: “We have everything under control, they were dying anyway”

Or 0bama: "you know what? Maybe this isn't going to help. Maybe you're better off not having the surgery, but taking the painkiller".

He said this to the daughter of a 105 year old mother who had successful pacemaker surgery at 100, but only after getting a second opinion. Obama was implying the second opinion was wrong and a waste of resources, even if the outcome was successful.

Obviously I must be racist because I find the term Kung Flu witty and funny.

Every day we are hearing opinions about how our current health care system may be overwhelmed and unable to fully responds to the pandemic in the days ahead. Just imagine the trouble we would be in if Bernie Sanders’ health care system were in place right now.

Democrats are lacerating President Donald Trump b/c he referred to the Wuhan coronavirus as the "Chinese virus."
The knee-jerk "tolerant and compassionate" Dems claim it's racist to point out the fact that the virus originated in China.

She was then-VP Joe Biden's Senior Adviser....... now Symone Sanders (think Stacey Abrams times two), regurgitated
that point of view on Fox News. "It's something that's offensive to Chinese Americans," Sanders claimed.

Joe Biden and the Democrat Party’s Incestuous Relationship with China
American Thinker.com ^ | March 17, 2020 | Steve McCann / FR Posted on 3/17/2020, 12:01:42 PM by Kaslin

Desperation has set in among the Politburo in China as their deliberate mishandling and obfuscation of the Chinese Coronavirus outbreak has threatened, and in all likelihood derailed, their grandiose plans for global hegemony.

In what can only be described as one of the most ham-handed propaganda efforts in recent memory, China is now trying to deflect blame onto the United States for the Coronavirus outbreak that has been recently categorized as a global pandemic. Further, they are unabashedly claiming that any criticism of their “valiant” efforts to stem the spread of the virus or using the nomenclature of Wuhan Virus or Chinese Coronavirus is racist and xenophobic.

While their attempt to implicate the United States may appear on the surface to be absurd, the reality is that much of it will fall on fertile ground previously tilled and seeded over the past 25 years with vast amounts of money and investments. An end-product of China’s infiltration of the American media and education establishment is the almost immediate regurgitation of China’s racist and xenophobic argument by the American mainstream media and the predominantly left-wing professional class.

Hollywood and the entertainment cabal, already awash in Chinese capital and desperate for access to the Chinese market, has refused to criticize China’s handling of the Coronavirus focusing instead on President Trump.

It is almost a certainty that when the pandemic recedes there will be nothing produced that is even remotely critical of China. (Excerpt) Read more at americanthinker.com ...

Had the left been in control they would have done nothing.
Whoever died would justbe dead and nobody would have paid attention.

Just like H1N1, which was deadlier than Wuhan Flu.

The left are the real racists. If China wants to be considered a first world nation, they need to take responsibility for their mistakes. ObamaBushClintoBush treated them like children and walked away when they acted up Our president expects them to act like adults and holds them accountable.

If a degenerative mental disease that originated in California was to reach epidemic proportions in China, would there be as many objections by the Chinese to calling the infection the pelosi plague?

Yup. As asinine as the Chinese lies of deflection are, I knew when I first heard them that they weren’t going to be entirely fruitless for them.

The LEFTards of all professions are not just failing, they are FLAILING at their reaction / attack on PDJT [Flailing: thrashing about erratically, futilely]. They are so blindly full of hatred towards the deplorables as represented by the elected President, that they WANT doom & destruction just to soothe their nihilism!
