Infectious diseases expert Jeremy Farrar has himself been at the center of the debate over the mysterious origins of COVID, which first broke out in China in late 2019.
You can't just assume someone is racist because they disagree with you. It's like calling you antisemitic for criticizing Israel. They brought up that China shouldn't have blocked initial investigations and instead of replying with any facts yourself, you immediately jumped to assuming they're racist and how they would've behaved if they hadn't.
I'm not assuming people are racist because they disagree with me. I'm pointing out that their gut-reaction accusation of calling others a "chinese bot" is racist.
This has nothing to do with disagreeing. I made no assumptions, I pointed out racist language and behaviour.

Other users have already engaged with them in this argument, to which they responded with racist accusations of being "chinese bots".
Since they have already shown that this is how they behave, and since I have similarly pointed this out to them - which also resulted in childish racism as a response from them - why would I in any way validate them with civility?
