In MAGA land - life sucks if you aren't born with skin that entitles you to a magical power: first-impression white privilege.
You’re only 100% wrong this time.

I’m non-white and independently wealthy.

Nothing is keeping me or other non-whites from being successful. Not the orange guy, not the Botox bimbo.

So racist.

The “experts” say to avoid getting COVID-19, “Wash your hands, don’t touch your face, stay away from other people, stay home if you’re sick.”

Most of those impacted are African American.

So basically it is racist. It’s saying black people don’t wash their hands, they touch their faces, they hang out with other people, and go everywhere regardless of health.

Thank god such crack analysis is here... news flash bozo... the average human touches their face 10 times an hour...
So blacks are touching their faces more? That’s what you’re saying. They’re also coughing on each other, sneezing each other, and not washing their hands. Numbers don’t lie.

I’m done with you... you edited your post to change the meaning after the fact. Bye.
Where?

Just because you read it incorrectly the first time doesn’t mean that it’s my fault.

Sometimes it doesn’t show them... it certainly seemed like he was calling me a racist... not gonna even begin to roll with that kind of talk.
Nope. Never happened, yet you act as though it did. Do you work for CNN?

If we all agree with the Governor and the Lt Governor that this thing affects African-Americans much more than everyone else, can the rest of us get back to work and on with our lives and let them just study that issue???
You don’t need to agree or disagree with facts. They just are.

What keeps the virus from spreading? African Americans clearly aren’t doing what stops the spread.

African Americans are making poorer health choices than whites. That’s not being racist. That’s being observant and honest with the data.

Yes...we should have separate restaurants, restrooms, water fountains, etc. for these people. We shall signify the "clean" places for "WHITES ONLY". Tremendous idea.
I wish you were joking.

What are the facts?? They keep comparing the death rates of A-A vs everyone else in the state with the overall demographics of the whole state. Yet the demographics of the SE part of the state is significantly different from the rest of the state.
30% of COVID-19 patients are black. However, blacks make up 13% of the population.

Does is mean blacks are stupid? Nope!
Does it mean blacks don’t practice good hygiene? Most likely.

And you're making the same mistake that (half) Whitmer and others are. You're comparing patients in limited geographic areas who are sick with the overall demographic makeup of the country or state.

Make an apples-to-apples comparison. What is the percentage of black COVID-19 patients in Detroit with the demographic makeup of Detroit, or, what is the percentage of black COVID-19 patients in Alger County with the demographic makeup of Alger County?
13% population, yet 30% of cases. What am I missing here?

Stevie Wonder can see the point!
