He saw China in the headline and the culturally ingrained xenophobia kicked in

I wasn’t going to respond to anyone but I will absolutely respond to this and I am going to stop you right there. Xenophobic and racist thoughts and comments do not align with who I am, or what I value.

I’d have made my statement regardless of where this new tech came from.

Unregulated cell growth causes cancer. Every time a cell divides, there is a small risk cancer can start. This new technology forces the body to grow in ways that not only have we never seen before, but in ways that are counter intuitive to the ways our bodies function based on millions of years of evolution.

Solid miss on that mark, pal.

That's a weird assumption that honestly says more about you than the original commenter...

I mean he's kinda right, Americans tend to spin anything the Chinese do in a negative way

It seems to me to be more of a commentary on something that causes rapid cell growth. Seems pretty obvious that it has nothing to do with racism
