In the midst of all these reports of racial animosity towards the Asian, wouldn't it be reasonable to conclude those who insist on using it are probably racist?

Spanish Flu. Worst part about calling it that was that there was no proof that the flu came from Spain, it got the name like that because Spain, at the time, was the only one honest enough to report it. --- DI MOLTO! Switch FC: SW-0575-4758-7878 ... Copied to Clipboard!

If 10 people use it online maybe 1 or 2 of them would actually use it in real life.

If it's a nickname, tbh I don't really care what they call it lmao. Historically speaking, calling it coronavirus might ultimately befuddle the true origin of the virus. So the term Chinese Virus has a purpose of making the history, at the very least, not forget and make it easier for future generations to understand. However, it's not the most popular name by any stretch. History will still always know it as Coronavirus (COVID-19). So really, this whole Chinese Virus thing doesn't really matter
