Revisionists strike again. This snowflake mentality has serious consequences that I think folks don't see.

Sure let’s change history so we can virtue-signal.

These people need to be publicly mocked and laughed at.

They’ll shut-up about this once they realize Spanish are only white folks.

Easy decision.
Does changing the name conform to progressive idiocy?
If yes, of course, change the name.
After all, we don’t need no stinkin’ history (says Winston Smith).

I’m sure Germany and Japan would like to change history. Japan actually does it, in their history textbooks. They routinely whitewash their behavior in China during WWII.
Wikipedia can probably help them out too.

They only care about changing it away from the Spanish Flu because the existence of the term ‘Spanish Flu’ lessens their moral authority to condemn anyone who says ‘Chinese Virus.’

The name is better. Idiots. We KNOW when the Spanish flu was, what is wrong with calling history what it is.
They have NOTHING better to do?
To: Zenyatta
There is no discussion, just troublemaking by leftists. Follow the money trail to China.

Yup. Let’s rewrite history to help damage Trump.
I’m sure PDJT will just roll over and let them get away with it.

I can go along with this just so long as they always refer to China as a leftist Communist thuggish dictatorial crew of no good scum.

This time in history will be regarded as one of the worst because of libtards and their socialism.

LOL. No, there really is a rickettsial disease spread by ticks that was discovered at Fort Bragg.
