This is a good point.

Russians are white, so that somehow makes it ok. :-/

But... Are the bots white? We need to problematize this one.

Are russians white? They come from east of the caucuses sometimes

Also, FYI : Glory holes are not protective.

LOL.

Depends what you're trying to protect and what you wish to expose.

The difference is "Russian bots" are manufactured in Russia for nefarious purposes, whereas covit19 doesn't belong to China or the Chinese, it originated in bats/rodents and the spread of that virus was reckless, but still incidental. The CCP needs to crack down on those "wet markets" if they want to avoid another pandemic.

But the russian bots are not always russian bots, just people. Also China had a chance to close wet markets down after SARS. They chose to reopen them.
