  • Man has been seen cracking a whip while launching into a racist tirade in Sydney
  • He was captured yelling racist abuse outside the Chinese Consulate on Monday
  • He claimed China knew about coronavirus and was deliberately spreading it 
  • Incident is the latest in a series of racist attacks since coronavirus crisis began 
  • Coronavirus symptoms: what are they and should you see a doctor?

Shocking footage has emerged of a man armed with a whip launching into a racist tirade at people lining up outside a Chinese consulate.

The man, wearing an Akubra, cracks the bullwhip while abusing members of the public wearing face-masks who are waiting to enter the Chinese Consulate-General in Sydney's inner-west on Monday.

The racist rant goes for several minutes, with the man even threatening to shoot the Chinese general-secretary and accusing China of spreading COVID-19.

The frightening incident is the latest in a string of coronavirus-related racial attacks, and comes just days after a Australian woman of Vietnamese background was called an 'Asian dog' and spat on in nearby Marrickville.

'Death to communism! Wake up Australia! Wake up! No more s**t from China,' the man said.

'I'll put a bullet in the General Secretary's head. I'm going to kill that leader of China.

'Filthy f**ing commies. Trying to take over the world. No more.'

The man then turned to the queue of people at the building's entrance and accused them of spreading coronavirus throughout the world. 

'We know it's deliberate. Five million people left your country and spread that filthy f***king disease worldwide,' he said.

'You're all wearing your masks and you know why you're wearing your masks? You knew about it!

'I'm onto you. I know you deliberately released this virus. 

'Wake up Australia! Be wise to these pr**ks.' 

NSW Police told Daily Mail Australia they received no reports about the incident and did not attend. The Chinese Consulate has been contacted for comment. 

The disturbing act follows a series of vile racially-motivated attacks on people of Asian appearance since the coronavirus crisis began.

The argument broke out in the streets of Marrickville, in Sydney's inner west, at around 3pm on Monday, with a woman in grey (pictured) allegedly racially abusing two sisters

Rosa Do, 19, was allegedly spat in the eye by a 17-year-old girl in Marrickville on Monday while crossing the road with her sister.

The Caucasian girl allegedly screamed abuse at the teenager, calling her an 'Asian dog'.

'Asian b**ch. You brought corona here. Eat a bat again you dumb wh***,' she said.

The stranger then allegedly continued to taunt the sisters, trying to kick them before spitting in Rosa's face.

Police arrested a 17-year-old woman on Tuesday afternoon and charged her with three counts of common assault, use offensive language in/near public place, and two counts of attempt stalk/intimidate intend fear of harm. 

On a Melbourne train last week a mother who was with her young daughter was seen yelling racial abuse at two passengers and allegedly punched one of them in the face.

The woman then screamed 'go back to your own country' at the men, calling one a 'disease-carrying motherf***er'.

Police officers are understood to have taken the woman off the train and received statements from the victims, as well as numerous other passengers. 

In Epping in Sydney's north-west a street with a large Asian population was covered in graffiti that read 'death to dog eaters'.

Daniel Palmer who lives in the street shared the pictures online.

'Week 2 of isolation: This s*** on my road in front of an Asian household in f***ing Epping,' he captioned the images.

'S*** like this lurks beneath the surface in society, and you usually only notice it if you're ethnic when it creeps out in small bite-sized chunks.'

Mr Palmer said someone had since painted over the racial comments and the police had been notified.

In Queensland, a South Korean woman was viciously attacked by a group of six people after they demanded how long she had been in the country. 

The woman, 27, was left with scratches above her eyes and on her cheek following the attack where she was repeatedly shoved to the ground. 

She tried to defend herself - but then the group began to beat her with their fists.

She then desperately tried to call Triple Zero as her hair was pulled and she was kicked in the face. 

She said the thugs told her to 'go back to your country' and asked if she had 'self-isolated for 14 days'.
