| > I wasn't able to find anything, but admittedly my Italian is not great. > I find it hard to believe, and given Italy's recent problems with the far-right surge, it seems to be more fake news. So you don't speak enough Italian to verify, but still you got a hunch. And since we're at it, let's accuse whoever says things I don't like of spreading fake news. What a constructive attitude! Besides not speaking Italian well enough, you are not even well informed about Italian politics, because everyone even just skimming through headlines would know that a few weeks ago the President of the Italian Republic visited a primary school with mainly Chinese pupils as a symbolic gesture against discrimination and racism. There was also a long article about racism and Coronavirus on Internazionale, but you could easily find tens of sources. Get your facts straights (or just ask) before accusing people of spreading fake news. |
> "The only virus there is, is racism", they told us.
That typically means that some specific person, one with power and influence, said the exact words (or something which can be translated to the exact words) "the only virus there is, is racism". If you just mean that some people are talking about racism caused by the coronavirus, that's a very misleading way to phrase it.
