are typically always sitting back waiting to use anything against non-whites they can.

Chinese wet markets are inhumane, barbaric and unhygenic - but so to are the conditions of farms and slaughterhouses in America and the West, where there have been several outbreaks originating from such animals/conditions.

The message we should take away from this situation, as with climate change, is to respect nature more.
