Yes, it's racist when they do it as well. Call it by it's name. Covid-19.
Note: I don't watch CNN.

It isn't racist in either instance. Racism = a belief that your race is superior. There is no superiority or inferiority inherent in those statements. They are not racist.

CDC's current estimate is between 200,000 and 1.7 million dead Americans.
Edit: About half of what I had heard back on page 1.

I really do hate the intellectual bankruptcy of the aggressively atheist. It's not that they don't believe in God (I don't), but that they can't even bother to understand what it is they rail against so loudly. They just think they're so clever when they're actually making themselves look like idiots. And, to avoid the subposting, I'm talking about Eldorian here.

Look at Dunning-Kruger, he solved the problem of evil. What a genius.
Everyone bow down in awe.

You know, every time you say "Dunning-Kruger," you just continue to exhibit that you don't actually understand it. It's kinda sad, actually. As for the problem of evil, I don't claim to have solved it -- only that your thinking on it is puerile.

Being French isn't a race, though the French would like you to think otherwise.
Seriously. Now you're just being silly. It's Covid-19. You just don't want to say that Trump is wrong.

He says lots of things wrong. This just isn't one of them.

I'm glad racism doesn't stop during a pandemic. Who would I call a Nazi then?
