Racists like Goom: Let's actively discriminate against blacks for centuries

Blacks: Have worse outcomes than whites on healthcare

Scientists: Hey guys, blacks have worse outcomes due to systemic issues, maybe we should prioritize them and similar communities with worse outcomes because they have worse outcomes.

Racists like Goom: CAN YOU BELIEVE THEY WANT TO PRIORITIZE UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES! THAT'S SO RACIST!

Absolutely.

Too bad that doesn't really matter here. It's well documented that minority communities are underserved relative to their equivilant white counterparts. We can ignore race and just do it by zip code if you want. You'd get the same result even using a race-neutral marker, because zip code also correlates with race due to discrimination and red-lining.


Lets exclude entire neighborhoods "by zip code" from all welfare, medical assistance and housing benefits. Let's say that entire neighborhoods "by zip code" shouldn't be allowed to secure a car or home loan. Let's deny anyone living in those neighborhoods "by zip code" from entering public restaurants and make them sit at the back of a bus and leave town by sundown. Institutionalized racism is okay, as long as you had a few extra steps of obfuscation.

So again I have to ask, who enforces these racist laws and how? How white am I allowed to be, before I'm denied service? When the doctors are going to decide whether to give me life-saving treatment or let me die, do I get to self-identify my race? Will they use DNA tests, or ancestry, or just compare the color of my skin to a life size cutout of Taylor Swift? Its the logistics of these policies that can't be left undefined. I think I could help doctors simplify the process and hang some posters in their waiting areas for people to readily identify which race they belong to;

Oh look Goom is telling flat out lies about the state of affairs so he can argue against racial justice.

And nobody is surprised, because he's an unabashed racist.

White people will twist themselves into knots to feel victimized. My god.

If the situation was reversed and a Republican state like Utah gave extra points toward eligibility for life-saving treatment for being white, there'd be riots on the streets and the MSM would freak the fuck out.

Sounds like you are just mad that the science came to a conclusion you don't like. An underserved population having a higher risk of problems from a contagious disease isn't controversial in the slightest. I'd imagine rural whites have similar problems.

Is there any science showing non-white ethnicity to be biologically/causally related to worse covid outcomes? As far as I know, all the evidence we have is purely correlative based on typical confounders like socio-economic status or obesity rates. Denying a fat, poor white dude from an underserved trailerpark a treatment while giving it to his fat, poor black counterpart from an underserved inner city ghetto is literally racial discrimination.

If you want to argue that marginalized communities should be prioritized, so be it. Define socioeconomic criteria and apply them. Such a rule would automatically benefit minorities disproportionately. But taking the shortcut and going for explicit racial screening is neither morally justified nor is it backed up by actual science.

There's plenty of evidence that equal socioeconomic groups that are stratified only by race have worse outcomes in basically all health metrics in the United States.

Large parts of Northern EU were pillaged / murdered and enslaved by the Vikings and parts of Eastern EU were pillaged / murdered and enslaved by the Mongols but those people picked themselves up and are going strong.

Your kind are the only ones blaming their miserable failures on slavery while living in one of the richest countries on the planet just lol kenw git gud now lol

You are advocating for explicitly racist policies. You want to discriminate against people based on the color of their skin.
You need to be able to defend your support for racist policies by explaining the most basic logistics, like how you plan to identify the race of someone. Its not a simple question, certainly not in a melting pot like America. Is Obama black, or white? How about Colin Kaepernick? How about Rachel Dolezal?

This is Wentworth Miller, under some of that CNN Lighting™;



is he black, or white? Nuremberg codes make him the same % as Obama
So again I ask, who decides someone's whiteness, and how? DNA test? Ancestry? Peter Griffin holding a color palette?

Goom: It's racist to prioritize groups with worse outcomes if they happen to not be white

Man you're so transparent.

Good thing that's not what's happening, because the metric being used is healthcare outcomes.

But please, keep telling blatant lies. I'm sure you'll convince someone eventually.
