George Takei: Trump's Usage Of 'The Chinese virus' Is A 'Signal To The Haters' | MSNBC
The COVID-19 is testing everybody’s patience, wisdom and sanity! May God bless those who are kind and wise!
@Natasha Norman No you are absolutely wrong. There is a time and place for it.
@Natasha Norman If someone kills your father is it time for kindness? No. If your child does drugs, is it time for kindness? No. If someone invades your land, takes your country and enslaves your people, is it time for kindness? No. I agree we should always show kindness when we can but that is certainly not always.
@Freedog13 if someone kills my father, it does not mean I should not be kind to others. If a child does drugs, it is certainly a time for kindness and maybe some tough love. If somebody enslave my people and takes my country, should still be plenty of people you could show kindness too. Show yes, in every situation there is room for kindness.
@Natasha Norman Tough love in not kindness. Protecting your father from murder is not kindness. Look I agree with you, we should be kind. But sometimes we cannot.
@Freedog13 and I am saying that any situation presents an opportunity for kindness. My friend’s father was killed by a drunk driver, his wife came to apologize to her. She could have been bitter and hateful, but she was kind to the person. My dad was an alcoholic, I HATED the disease and the person he was when he was drunk, sober he was another person, and that’s when we showed him kindness and love. After he died, we found writings of his and learned of demons that he battled that we knew nothing about and in those writings he would comment about how he could not understand how we still loved him. I will never forget showing him that kindness. I was there, holding his hand when he died, he loved me and I loved him. I do see what you are saying as well and there is no point in continuing to argue. The world is going through enough. But I see too many people wishing death and destruction on people they don’t even know, it’s just sad.
And for the next episode of “The sharpie strikes again”
…..
The virus started in China. China covered up the out break. China lied about the seriousness of the outbreak. It spread from China’s filthy food and sanitation standards. So, yes China is to blame. I have seen these wet markets personally. I will not go into the details because you’ve already been triggered and need to go spend time in your safe space to practice your breathing techniques.
Right now you just wrote the sentence better than your savior Trump. The virus originated in China, the virus outbreak was in China, but when the virus already have a name Coronavirus or COVID-19 that doesn’t make it a China virus, it makes it a virus called COVID-19 originated in China, exactly how you said it. See even you are more intelligent that your president.
Haha the china virus,”bc it came from china!” Lol
eton xu but if explain to someone that use to neglect facts, there imagine is more important.
Its is officially the Covid 19 virus. Maybe we should call it the Trump Do Nothing to save American lives virus.
John sarab feel sorry for them, specially the one without Health Insurance in the so call #1 wealthy country.

Too Funny 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Every person in leadership including Professors etc are Chinese Communist Party members. Chinese in California have argued in front if me in support of the Chinese Communist Party !!!
The Chinese American society is yet to condemn the Chinese Communist Party. Or issue a statement to that effect !!
SO … It is China & the Chinese Communist Party.
Its the China Virus !! China lied people died https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NpGiJB3Gr0
People literally dying over this disease… and the media just wants to talk about how rahcist trump is..
@Gavin C Trump is not racist per se, but is a demogouge to racists, which is why he dog whistles race baiting rhetoric for ratings because he knows real racists vote for him.
@Anand Powerlifting China has been doing well rivaling the U.S economy, while America is busy invading other economies. It was a matter of time before America would find a way to stage a Pearl Harbour against China like they did to Libya when Kaddafi was going to move Africa away from the petro dollar.
@cameron mulvihill +1

Why don’t they complain about China not taking responsibility for this pandemic .
@Marina Chow What is Trump going to do if China does not own up?
@Deepthroat Gag well we will have to wait and see.
@Marina Chow Your uncle Dumbald is the one who sent the drones over there to drop the virus, he was told it would dissipate in the sun, before it got over here. The truth will come out soon. He wants to win the election by any means necessary. It just backfired on him.
@Amir Wijaya .. Stop trying to defend China. I ain’t a fan of trump. But dude ain’t lying..now the Chinese are putting the blame on black people living in China. The evictions, the not letting us buying food to eat.
@Sahiry Gnobehi
Do you happen to know the case regarding African punch one of the nurse in the hospital in China?
Beam me up Scotty. There is no intelligent life left on this planet!
Agreed ! But there are communist criminals in some places too spreading pandemics China Lied People Died: Worldwide map of fatalities https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsXpWAp-stk&t=190s&app=desktop

@Baby Yoda the irony being people aren’t getting upset over the blatant misconception.
R.I.P Doctor Li Wenliang a Hero who tried to warn us. Thwarted by ccp Evil.
you are talking rubbish, you know nothing about china.
@FIRST TERMINATOR R.I.P Doctor Li Wenliang a Hero who tried to warn us. Thwarted by ccp Evil….. You do not get to write the history on this. You do not get to comment. You do not get to tell me what I do and what I do not know.You get no say at all. Shut up and crawl back under the rock you crawled out from.
It’s the CCP virus
i mean we all know it as the chinese virius it comes from there
…GEORGE NEVER PROTESTED THE “”KLINGON CLAP””
Man can’t stand facts, and is catching feelings so hard 😂😂😂
Better leave them alone before they send another virus.. It may be called the Trumona Virus. U think this is something. We will all be ORANGE.
They’re responsible so they have to deal with. This happens among all races. Instead of being offended use you time to help with the virus.
Lol Imagine being this out of touch. Can’t say this statement will benefit Mr. Takei’s career in the long run.
