With all respect, this sounds very much like "It's not xenophobia if your fear of the foreigners is justified".

- bruiseralmighty 6y ago> The Chinese government does bear some of the responsibility here. The Chinese people do not. I don't know how much clearer I can make a distinction between a people and their government in words. I do not consider myself responsible for the decisions of Dick Cheney and Obama. Nor would I consider a random Chinese person responsible for the actions of Tedros Adhanom or Xi Jinping. I would find someone blaming a Chinese or Chinese-American person on a subway for the coronavirus misguided and wrong. I would find someone critiquing the Chinese governments response to the virus very justifiable.
