And then there's this little femcel.

A friend asks, stunned: "Is this what 'journalists' actually think they're doing? Fighting coronavirus?"

Is that what they think they're doing when they ask the 100th question about whether calling a Chinese virus the Chinese virus is racist? Do they think those questions are synthesizing a vaccine?

They really are that delusional.
