I think most citizens of whatever country are mostly embarrassed/ashamed of their government.  I know I am.

I'm certainly not proud of Russia's, China's, or North Korea's government.  The same as France, Great Britain, or Italy.

I suppose some are "better" than others, but they all have faults
Eh, I'm not ashamed of our government.  I'm ashamed of some of the things our government has been responsible for, while recognizing it's also done a shit-ton of good in the world over the past 150 years or so.

CCP just isn't anywhere close to the US government, for any number of reasons.

I'm ashamed of the way our two parties go about blaming each other for everything, making all issues a political problem, especially a serious deadly virus.
I'm embarrassed that our two parties would rather divide the nation than work towards a common good.

I'll continue to call bullspit on this.

Sure, we talk about Ebola--tell me when this became a politicized term?

What about SARS 2, or the Swine Flu, or Avian Flu, or H1N1, etc., etc., etc.?

Everyone here knows that Trump started the "China Virus" bullspit after COVID-19 and coronavirus were firmly entrenched as the way this was referred to. It's political BS. As the SNL version of Bob Dole once said, you know it, I know it, and the American people know it.

Spare me--and everyone else here--the crap.

It's politicized and bothersome to you because you've chosen to allow it to be.

I don't give a rat's ass what our current president calls it, nor do I care what our former president might call it, were he to call it anything, nor would I care what our next president might call it.

You have a problem with a person, and you allow it to politicize the term for you.  That's your choice.

I don't like our current president, and I certainly didn't vote for him (either then nor now), but I also don't care what he says about it, or really anything else.

And of course now we're discussing politics once again, that have nothing to do with the current global pandemic that's a result of the Wuhan Flu.

I agree that calling it the China virus had political motivation, and still does for some, but really, I don't care what you call it.

I'm not offended if you call it the CV nor do I take it as political.  I use the term COVID of course.

I'm more interested in trying to understand what's happening and about to happen.  That dip in Aug/Sept has me perplexed, though if the new surge is a new variant ...

France is committing what to me looks to be economic suicide to try and curtail this.  And I fear the attempt is too little/ too late/too much/not enough/and not ideal.

It'd be great if politics had nothing to do with it, but it does.  A lot.  THAT is the problem.

And you can feel free to discuss whatever political bits you like, somewhere else.
