I've been seeing a meme from Trump voters about licking doorknobs related to the coronavirus. Not sure where they're getting that one from, doesn't seem to be very online.

Well, Trump was poopoo-ing the fact that Parasite won big awards in spite of being a foreign film.  Apparently, only american films deserve praise.

It seems interesting, not that I'm up to date on movies.

...Wow, I was wondering why certain histrionic youtube personalities were so up-in-arms about Parasite.  They really are eager to subsume their identities under their little god-king, huh?

Reminds me of the dry steaks thing, but with extra... let's be nice and call it "xenophobia".

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

Bumber, this video is why I don't sleep at night.

I've also seen these licking doorknob memes. Kind of fucked up since I live in China, but a bunch of the expat community here is wildly anti-communist/socialist (it doesn't matter what word because that's not actually what they're against.) And a shocking amount are pro-Trump.

Do the Chinese not resent Trump for that tariff war shenanigans?

As for the licking doorknobs thing, it's probably from the Babylon Bee, which is an Onion-style publication:

Climate Change Activists Begin Licking Doorknobs To Contract Coronavirus And Reduce Human Population

If someone think's that's real they've been Onioned.

...Why do you make the "to kill the white man" conclusion? Is that in the article? I didn't read it, so I'm just going by the headline.

The article is explicitly along the veins of The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement. It's meant to be 'jokingly' suicidal, not homicidal.

I'm not talking about the satirical article, but the memes of Asian people licking and spitting on things spread by rightists.
