BigSLM1993 06/24/20 10:10:30 AM #10:	Asians have dealt with the stereotype of being martial artists, and all knowing Kung Fu. So you're mixing stereotypes when assigning blame to China. On top of Asian AMericans in America facing discrimination and harassment due to being blamed for Covid. So coming out of the mouth of Trump, who's history with race relations is shaky, and his followers cheering at the word Kung Flu, it is bad optics. Cuz WHY exactly did his crowd erupt into cheering on Tuesday at the word "Kung Flu"? <cite>BigSLM1993 posted [p:941178671] in Can someon...
