's say your house is on fire.
An insane arsonist put a lit match to some oily rags in your basement, and the blaze spread so slowly that you didn't even notice at first. This malevolent criminal also cut your phone lines so you couldn't call for help. (There are no cellphones in this scenario, just bear with me. It's set in the '70s, okay?) Once you finally realized you were in trouble, you shouted for help and your neighbors called the fire department. Your local fire chief might not the best one your town has ever had, so it takes him a while to get it together and make his way you. But once he does, he and his team throw everything they have into saving your house. Now you're standing there in your pajamas, huddled in a blanket and uncertain of what's next, as you watch them do their best to help you.
Then, the insane arsonist goes to your local newspaper (again, this is the '70s) and coerces them into running front-page stories about how the fire chief is the one responsible for the blaze. The big lie they push is that if the chief had gotten to the house faster, if he'd handled this or that differently, there never would've been a problem at all. The hugely destructive house fire -- which, remember, the insane arsonist set himself -- wouldn't have happened in the first place. It's the fire chief's fault, according to the press that has been manipulated into printing it. So now the whole town blames the chief, and the insane arsonist gets away with his crime against you.

Put the blame where it belongs. #ChinaLiedPeopleDied.
To me the most important question is this:
Of the folks that contract the virus, how many will get sick enough to require hospitalization?
That’s what all the fuss seems to be about...overwhelming the medical care system. If the percentages aren’t noticeably higher than the flu, this social experiment needs to come to a halt.
If China is the arsonist, the Virus the fire, it looks like the Drudge Report is the gasoline. Headlines look like that old fake World News Tabloid in the checkout line!
Well, if the elites that want to eliminate 90% of the world’s
population didn’t release the right bio-weapon for the job,
perhaps they can get what they want via WW3 with China.
How about we just send them the bill, instead?
With easy terms.
The people yelling “FIRE” in the crowded theater are the Democrats.
If we pull all our manufacturing, that should be enough to crash their economy.
We’re burning down our own house, China isn’t doing that.
“We’re burning down our own house, China isn’t doing that.”
Good point!

Trump lied,
Our Economy Died!
So true
Eschoir???
In a truly just world Xi Jinping and his commie pals would be sitting in the dock awaiting execution for crimes against humanity.
Xi Jinping needs to die for his crimes.
Nah, Eschoir never told the truth like I do.
You are 2005 so I am doubtful
The Virus Is a Fire, and the Arsonist Is China
And the propaganda press is pouring the gas on the flames.
If we pull all our manufacturing, that should be enough to crash their economy.
The American people can do it single handedly,
Put “made in china” back on the shelf and BUY AMERICAN
You just went full retard.
The press hyped this and created a monster that they can no longer control. Can you imagine the first reporter who tries to walk back the story? He would be crucified. The numbers don’t support the hype.
