| OrangeWizard 10/07/21 5:10:21 PM #115 | Hornswoggled posted... Apparently he was bullied for having fancy clothes and a real nice car. Being rich and black may actually get you persecuted by jealous black people who aren't rich. Heck, being black but not 'acting black', gets you bullied by people who do "act black". Fresh Prince has episodes on this, as does The Boondocks. Carlton was called a "sellout", for instance. I can also attest to this from personal experience. I'm black, but was raised in white neighborhoods my whole life. I was called an oreo, black on the outside, white on the inside. So, sure, you can be sarcastic about it, but it is a very real thing. --- Love is not a victory march |

Oh, I thought it was just "spreading BS about COVID on social media." Yes, saying that you paid someone to "lick items at grocery stores in the San Antonio area to scare people away" is different than, say, posting a meme about how you don't trust the government or the media. Bit of a misleading headline, but I suppose you knew that. --- Love is not a victory march |

| OrangeWizard 09/23/21 2:19:18 AM #98 | hockeybub89 posted... Fuck anyone who is hesitant of the vaccine. Again, the sheer scope of the vaccine across all demographics across the entire world puts all fears to rest. Whether or not you trust the government is between you and your government. Whether or not they trust the government is also between them and their government.
One cannot independently verify that a billion people have taken this vaccine. One cannot independently verify that the side-effects are as rare as they say. All that information that you're referring to comes from government organizations, organizations that these communities do not trust.

| OrangeWizard 09/22/21 5:16:48 PM #38 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Review National Review is an American semi-monthly conservative editorial magazine, focusing on news and commentary pieces on political, social, and cultural affairs. The magazine was founded by the author William F. Buckley Jr. in 1955.[2] It is currently edited by Rich Lowry. I'm not seeing anything else in this Wikipedia article about fines, malpractice etc. There's one lawsuit, but the judge ruled in the paper's favor. CNN has a bigger controversies section.

Beats me, but there's a paper about it: "Addressing Justified Vaccine Hesitancy in the Black Community" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8009077/ Many studies have noted that Black people cite distrust in the government and in the medical profession. Black people cite our nations history of racism in medical research and in medical care as key reasons for their hesitancy. This distrust is totally justified. There are also systemic and structural challenges relating to inadequate vaccine production and distribution; availability of needed vaccination supplies; and geographic, access, and transportation barriers. --- Love is not a victory march |

Anyone with half a brain could have seen that a vaccine mandate was eventually to clash, hard, with the historically low vaccination rates among black americans. Calling it "vaccine hesitancy" instead of "antivax" helped kicked the can down the road, but now it's here. It's obviously not racism involved, but it DOES "disproportionately affect people of color" so let's just watch people circle that square and see how it plays out.

| OrangeWizard 09/22/21 3:55:05 PM #1 | Recently, there was a brawl in a restaurant around vaccine mandates. That's a quote in the topic title is from this article: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/18/nyregion/carmines-vaccination-fight.html Chivona Newsome, the other co-founder of BLM NYC, targeted Mayor Bill de Blasios vaccine mandate more specifically in her remarks. She implied that the edict has resulted in repeats of historical episodes when blacks were disenfranchised from society. Seventy-two percent of black people in this city from ages 18 to 44 are unvaccinated. So what is going to stop the Gestapo, I mean the NYPD, from rounding up black people, from snatching them off the train, off the bus? she added. Were putting this city on notice, that your mandate will not be another racist social-distance practice. Black people are not going to stand by, or you will see another uprising. And that is not a threat; that is a promise, she said. The vaccination passport is not a free passport to racism. This vaccine mandate is disproportionately affecting people of color. People shouldnt be forced to do it. Its for your health, but theyre willing to ruin peoples lives to protect against a virus with over a 99 percent survival rate. . . This is going to be the new Jim Crow, and its going to affect mostly people of color, she said. https://www.nationalreview.com/news/after-altercation-at-restaurant-black-lives-matter-claims-nyc-vaccine-mandate-is-being-weaponized/ Are vaccine mandates going to be the new tool of racism?
