    Default WHEN WILL WHITE PEOPLE TAKE “PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY” IN THE AGE OF COVID?

    For so many years in this country I have heard the “personal responsibility” rant used against the Black community, blaming us for conditions that we had little control over. We have been blamed for so long, that some of us even throw out the ridiculous remark that “we are our own worst enemy.” These things infuriate me. I’m wondering where these arguments about “personal responsibility” are for White people in the resurgence of the coronavirus.


    There is a clear pattern when you look at the pandemic maps now. Small rural communities in these states are being hammered by the virus. The President and Vice President who have consistently downplayed, and even intimated that the virus is not a concern at all, are standing by watching millions of people being infected and are practically mute on the topic.

    President Trump tweeted on November 19 that the “Mortality rate is 85% down!” There is no sensible reason for anyone to say something so untrue. At least one American is dying on average every minute from the coronavirus. We are seeing more than a million new cases per week, yet the White House Coronavirus Taskforce has only held one public briefing since July, that was on November 19.


    In Milwaukee, when the virus was devastating the Black community, we heard calls for Black people to “do better.” Nationally there were assumptions made that the virus would not impact White people because they were acting “responsibly.” As I said then, the virus does not discriminate based on race.

    Now that we have clear evidence of the impact on the White community in metro Milwaukee we still see Whites refusing to wear masks and demanding that schools reopen in person with little to no regard for the adults in the schools.

    Because a 'white' politician called Trump caused it to be doing so, I suppose.

    Didn't you know that Guano believes that covid19 was created by white people in the hopes of ridding the US of black people, just like conservatives tried to do to the gay population with AIDS.

    From what I have been seeing on the news, it is non-whites who are suffering the most. So why should White people take responsibility for something that is affecting non-whites more. Why don't you do what most of the other idiots around here do. Blame China.

    Wow. If I said that I would be banned in a split second. Though I hope they don't ban you. I am against banning. It goes against freedom of speech.

    Awww... A blame others for your own irresponsibility thread. This is another racist, bigoted attempt to redirect blame for one's own failings on others. The OP's link and quotes argument is essentially Whites are responsible for the massive rise in Black COVID cases because... and that's where the argument ends. What? Are Whites going down to the ghettos and barrios knowing they have COVID to spread it? I doubt that. It's not like one ethnicity or another is deliberately going around like some racist version of Typhoid Mary spreading this disease.

    The OP article is just another moron on the Left trying to place blame in a politically correct manner on the racial group to hate de jour.
