An ethnic slur used by insensitive people to smear Chinese with blame for the most destructive pandemic in living memory (COVID-19). "Kung Flu" and "WuFlu" imply the virus is a flue (which it is not) while mocking Chinese culture by incorporating traditional Chinese martial arts terms Kung Fu and Wushu. Meanwhile, thousands of Chinese have suffered and died from COVID-19.
"Dude, I think we need to skip the gun show this week to avoid catching that Kung Flue. Social distancing sucks, but at least we can read Reddit and Breitbart from home, and troll lots of Asians on YouTube."
