Assassination Coordinates

When mean or naughty netizens spitefully or wickedly decide to share someone's live location online, such as their whereabout or those of their loved ones, which increases the odds of those who dislike these oft-über-rich or obnoxious fellows to threaten, kidnap, or harm them out of envy, jealousy, or hatred.

A self-confessed “free speech champion” rationalized that he’d zero choice but to ban the Twitter accounts of some “anti-MAGA” journalists because they’re guilty of providing “assassination coordinates” to tens of thousands of his fiends and foes, who’d arm themselves to shorten his days “improving” the lives of billions on this side of eternity.

Coronatrumped

When you are being lied to that the coronavirus is just another flu that would go away by Easter or Christmas, or that mask-wearing or social distancing is optional unless you want to be politically correct.

Ann felt coronatrumped by her boyfriend, who told her that no one could really be infected by casual kissing.

Putin the Great

The unofficial title conferred by millions of mainland Chinese netizens on Dictator Vladimir Putin for waging a war against the US and its allies via Ukraine, which are afraid of China’s economic and military rise and the world order (or disorder) it would create—Chinese jingoists view him as “the greatest strategist” of the 21st century, who would help deliver resources-rich developing nations from American hegemony and hypocrisy.

Pro-Russia, pro-Putin, and pro-war Chinese online users, particularly the so-called “little pinks,” see President Putin as a demigod or political savior—it’s no surprise that these diehard pro-Xi fans call him “Putin the Great.”

2🦠2🦠 MATH

When the mathematical education of millions of students in developing countries, who don’t have access to a computer or the internet, were hard hit by the lockdowns, which forced the authorities to postpone the national exams to 2021—a painful reality that exposes the wide inequality gap between the haves and the have-nots.

With new waves of the coronavirus pandemic currently sweeping many parts of the developed world, how much would 2🦠2🦠 math students be affected in the new year, especially when they’re not likely to be vaccinated before their counterparts in the West?

Covid-🇹🇼

When Taiwan promises the fifteen countries that still have diplomatic ties with her to help them buy Covid-19 vaccines as long as Taiwanese money is not used to procure China’s home-grown, half-trialed vaccines.

Beijing tried to bribe a number of vulnerable poor nations in Latin America, the Caribbean, and the Pacific, by promising to help them with their Covid-🇹🇼 and financial crises if they would just ditch Taiwan for China.

Covid-🇨🇳

When China’s refusal to acknowledge that Wuhan is ground zero for the coronavirus, and its attempt to conceal the outbreak until whistleblowers leaked out the news to the world, is the root cause for the spread of the virus globally, which has since led to millions of infections and deaths.

Instead of admitting that it failed to warn the world about the coronavirus outbreak, China refuses to bear responsibility for lying and not closing its borders when thousands of its own citizens were already infected and had died from the plague—can the world really blame the West for wanting to label the coronavirus Covid-🇨🇳 instead of Covid-19?

Con-19

A label given to someone who tries to cheat or rob others or the authorities during the coronavirus pandemic—for instance, a bogus law enforcer who catches others who don’t wear a mask, then expects to be bribed so that the victims could avoid paying a hefty fine or being sent to jail.

Thousands of con-19s have emerged from all corners of the globe to prey on the gullible and the superstitious folks.
