Chinese people are bullied bc of Corona and called dirty/disgusting
disease & xenophobia go hand in hand
e.g. 19th c. Irish immigrants carry cholera
e.g. Tuberculosis was also called "Jewish disease"
scapegoating is dangerous
victims are treated badly
bullies ignore the real causes/problems
Corona myth busters by WHO
US Elections
TUMP'S LEGACY - What has he done to America?
economy
the least people jobless in 15 years
economy booms bc of tax cuts for the rich
better performance than any of the other G7
huge deficit

Trump quit numerous (international) treaties
Paris Agreement (global climate pact)
NAFTA (America/Canada/Mexico)

legal immigration was very limited
attitude towards immigrants changed
division: it's us against them
environment
