    The world still needs "to get to the bottom of" the origins of Covid-19, and that means China still owes the world some answers, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Sunday https://www.politico.com/news/2021/04/11/covid-origins-china-blinken-480846 …

        No, just if you want to deflect about failure to blame Chinese people

        "We need to hold China accountable for being a shitty regime that fumbled a crisis" is different from "this was a biological weapon that might even have been released on purpose," but sure, let's conflate them so we can retcon that Tom Cotton and Fox weren't pushing crazy talk.

        Stating with high confidence months ago that it was leaked from a lab, especially that it was leaked on purpose, is at minimum reckless.

        It's almost like any nuance, any distinction between what is is and is not racist would be difficult for a racist to sort out.https://www.hrw.org/news/2020/05/12/covid-19-fueling-anti-asian-racism-and-xenophobia-worldwide …

        The racist part is people calling Asians nasty names and doing awful things to them bc of its origins. The president Making a silly name out of it and referring to it being China’s fault whenever asked what we, the US, was doing in reaction. Getting to the origins is fine.
