    I could see why you picked Kung Flu, it's something that the whole world is fighting, and it comes from China like Kung Fu. We're all Kung Flu fighting. But I think the China Plague is the most accurate. Many virus already come from China, and many other parts of the world. Wuhan is just the name of a city. There are already many Corona viruses. But this thing is supposedly a plague and it comes from China.

    Things like COVID are just beyond our comprehension. In fact, so are laws and people that service pubic seats and dictate our land.

    No doubt, and even if stupid plebs like you or I were able to comprehend covid, that still wouldnt give us the right to express any kind of opinion on the situation... having an opinion is a privilege exclusively reserved for this nations highly trustworthy medical "experts" (like fauci the sauce monkey)

    I noticed that ever since I created this thread Trump has stopped calling it the China Virus and instead he's calling it by what I think is a more accurate name, the China Plague. Could it be that Trump is an ISH reader and my argument for the China Plague made sense to him?
