SAMANTHA BEE (HOST): Tying coronavirus to China and Chinese people isn't just a racist dog whistle, it's a whole racist orchestra. It's a mighty mighty racist bosstone. Which brings me to this important point: the coronavirus is not an excuse to be racist! I know, I know, racism is like America's weighted blanket. When everything is stressful, nothing makes us feel more secure than treating other people like trash.
