There is absolutely no proof that this originated with someone eating bats. Bats often life close to humans—in attics for instance—and aren’t eaten raw. That makes it far more likely initial transmission was due to someone accidentally touching bat shit than anyone eating bats.
That this theory is widely being accepted as proven fact is itself evidence of the accusation of racism you’re trying to defend against.

You're right that it likely wasn't bats but scientists think it may have been in snakes or Pangolins https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-51496830 https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-51496830 But there seems to be a consensus that this bug started in their wetmarket. I don't care if it was consumption of the animal or from fecal matter. Wetmarkets should be permanently banned. Wealthy CCP cadre members didn't want to do this and it cost the world big time Also, racism? When did I bring that up?
