    This is just racist bullshit fear mongering. Bats already are one of the number one carriers of rabies and not just in China. Do better.

          Gonna just ignore this bullshit story for a moment because very different context but there are definitely plenty racists in China. Look at the Hong Kong protests and all the dumb fucks flying Trump flags and American flags and also pining for the return of British colonial rule lmao.

        There are a lot of Chinese liberals that buy into western narratives and there are plenty of sites eager to use sources like this to play on western racist fears for clicks.

        The article literally alludes to the comprehensively debunked theory that COVID 19 came from Chinese bats.

        Forget the context for a second… Would that be the craziest accusation?
