I heard on the radio the other morning that swine flu is now believed to have originated in Asia. But researchers “have no way to prove that theory.” In the meantime, enjoy all the pictures of Asian people illustrating the articles on the story. Here’s a picture from the home page of USA Today. I was reading a couple of other articles and they were illustrated with other brown folks–people from Malaysia and Buenos Aires.
Part i here.
I think I’m going to go sneeze on someone. Excuse me, I’ll be back shortly.

Gods. Yet experts have already pretty much narrowed the actual blame down to the American factory-farm owned by the American pork company Smithfield’s, and their unsanitary and exploitative practices. I’m white, and I can assure you that I know what race the owners of that company are.
And then, as noted in your earlier post, it was brought to the US by affluent white tourists.
I don’t even know where they dig up this crap, but it makes me wish I could physically shake one of these reporters.

Häh? Haven’t they got it mixed up with bird flu? That’s the first time I’ve heard of swine flu coming from Asia. But of course, we know that all new diseases come from overcrowded poor non-white countries, because white people like me are gods who don’t cause anything bad./sarcasm
