What if Cultural Behavior Influences Coronavirus Susceptibility?
2020-04-24
BLUF:
[American Thinker] I want to alert all who are involved in fighting the disease that "culture" will be deemed by progressives of all ethnicities a taboo subject. Any attempts to reveal to black Americans that cultural habits could be killing them will be turned back on the hapless investigators as evidence of their racism and lack of understanding.

The victimhood scam, perpetrated by progressive leftists must be protected at all costs.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the perpetually race-baiting Democrat congresswoman from New York, has already expressed the ridiculous notion that even to suggest that blacks are doing something contrary to their well-being is racist.

Ocasio-Cortez is a very low-intelligence progressive who plays the victim card well. But I don't doubt that some of the more astute among progressives were waiting for the issue of victimhood to raise its ugly head. For them, any behavior is unassailable. T here is no right or wrong, no acceptable or unacceptable. In the name of "inclusiveness," whatever anybody does, no matter the harm it causes, cannot be questioned.

In line with this misdirected notion, blacks are fed the lie that they hold no responsibility for their circumstances. If they eat unhealthy foods and suffer the consequences of those choices, it's not their fault. They are victims of that nebulous "racist system." Progressive Democrats have been masters in force-feeding that lie.

#8  I read yesterday that some doctors are finding a connection between high blood pressure drugs (ACE inhibitors) and Covid deaths. I also know almost all high blood pressure meds are made in China.

Conspiracy theories are bound to follow.

#1  From the comment section 'egospeak' Writes:

Michael Fumento wrote a book about it called “The Myth of Heterosexual AIDS” back in 1989 and was excoriated over yet was ultimately proved right. I’ve little doubt most of what we’re hearing from the “scientific” community about COVID-19 will ultimately be proven wrong.
