Editorializing sentence

edit

I removed what I think is a bad sentence from the article but got reverted, so I suppose we go to the talk page. This sentence

"Despite their playfulness, use of such terms mockingly implies the virus (which is not a flu) is China's aggressive gift to the world, and distracts from the fact that thousands of Chinese have suffered and died from the virus, particularly in Wuhan, thereby belittling the widespread suffering of Chinese under pandemic conditions."

is very unencyclopedic, sounding much more like a reflection on the subject rather than a statement of facts. It's sourced to an opinion piece by Amanda Marcotte, who is primarily a provocateur and not an objective commentator. (For those who doubt this, non-provocateurs don't write books titled "Troll Nation: How the Right Became Trump-Worshipping Monsters Set on Rat-F*cking Liberals, America, and Truth Itself".) A statement like this should not be given in Wikipedia's voice--it should either be removed or properly attributed to Marcotte herself.

Also the Fox News link is a 404, meaning the part about where the terms come from is currently unsourced. 173.29.96.94 (talk) 17:28, 17 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

I have removed the sentence and replaced it with a hopefully more encyclopedic description of the controversy. We'll see whether it stands this time. This is my first time editing much more than a typo on Wikipedia, so I'm not sure it's any good, but it's definitely an improvement over what was there before.

"Washington State Senate Democrat Leadership"

edit

I understand someone took this edit war to ANEW already? User:Firestar464 made this last revert, removing that content, and I agree: the content is grossly undue (this one-time allegation pertaining to one state takes up 10% of an article that is about the entire history of racism in the US). Moreover, the sourcing is wholly inadequate--the sources are either primary or an editorial from a newsletter. There is no way that this should ever be in this article.

Not a single mention of Taiwan

edit

Taiwan and the US generally hold positive views of each other:

I understand that nationality and ethnicity have varying overlap globally (heterogeneous societies like the US are an anomaly), but this is an important caveat that needs to be added to the article, because both countries (ROC and PROC) are overwhelmingly Han Chinese, and so anti-Chinese sentiment today can't be congruent with that of pre-Mao China. The US has a sizeable Chinese-American population, and so the ethnic prism becomes even cloudier. All Chinese people are Chinese, and not all Chinese people are Chinese. Something like that. Basic set theory. 2600:1012:B066:CF5C:1883:5375:5500:C179 (talk) 03:56, 2 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
