The Chinese government is solely responsible for all 315000+ people that has died from the Covid-19 virus, if saying that makes me racist then i am racist

That's completely and utterly 100% wrong.

Even if they created the virus and intentionally released it (which is a ridiculous conspiracy theory anyway) that would still be wrong. Other countries/people are responsible for their own actions too.

If a shooter enters a crowd and starts mowing people down, and a few citizens have an opportunity to take the shooter down, though they may get killed by trying, are they partially to blame if they don't make the attempt and run/hide instead? What if one of those citizens is an unarmed off duty cop or ex military? Maybe they don't have a gun but they have a knife/blade of some sort. Should they be blamed if they stand idly by?

"You need to get out of Canada lad, it's done a number on you. Next you'll be saying you're a bad person for being straight, white and male. Move to one of the better parts of Europe, Ireland perhaps, we are like Canada but housewives don't have majority control over our everyday lives and who gets put in charge. Honestly man, take a step back once and a while and reassess what your country is indoctrinating you into, Canada is like a cult when you look in from the outside, a cult of menopausal women who call the shots and men who are predisposed to being pussy whipped." 

I've bolded the sexist bits for you. 

To be more serious, the idea that Canada is run by menopausal housewives because all the men are too pussy whipped is the sexist bits. But that's like the whole post so.....

Oh yeah, I see it now. Still, it's not sexist if it's true and only a Canadian would deny it. 

It's partially true, no doubt. Canadian men in general are quite a bit softer than they used to be, and it's partially because of the widespread nonstop 'all males are bad for reasons' messaging being pushed. Our wet noodle of a P.M. has just accelerated things.

Though it's nowhere near as bad in conservative households/relationships. The same political divide and what comes with that in America is happening in Canada as well, just not to the same degree of separation, not yet anyway.

One of the biggest problems Canadians have is we are way too passive and forgiving until we are not. If through outside or inside influence, we happen to somehow reach that edge, Canada will snap back, and snap back hard. Sometimes it takes 'whiplash' to clue people in unfortunately.
