Cornell offers 'person of color' exemption for flu vaccine requirement

This story could be expressed in a very different way.

“Top school working to exterminate post-birth minorities.”

I’m going to burn for this comment, but if BL actually M, then let’s not encourage genocidal policies.

This seems completely unethical to me. While I understand and agree that minorities have been clearly the subjects of clearly unethical medical experimentation:

for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuskegee_Syphilis_Study

it seems a terrible disservice to suggest that any group opt out of potentially life saving treatments. There is already far too much mis-information surrounding Covid and vaccines in the US to be sending persons from historically marginalized communities mixed messages.

A year from now people will rightfully say "I didn't get vaccinated when everyone else did because there was some suggestion that people of color did not need to be vaccinated".

On Pine Ridge, 10% of the community currently has Covid at this very moment : 10%!!!. Is it ethical to say to them:

"We have a vaccine and all whites are going to get it and I guess you can as well, if you don't feel that would be exploitative. You remember the shitty things we did in the past right..."

Add that message on top of messaging from Trump and Fox that this is all a hoax and that having Covid makes you stronger then compound it with persistent anti-vax messaging prevalent in the USA and you basically have a recipe for convincing marginalized communities that they would be better off not being vaccinated.

This is why we must never allow single payer healthcare in the US.

The US Left is demonstrating that it has ABSOLUTELY no qualms about politicizing healthcare and regulating it in ways that blatantly discriminate based on race, sex, and origin - in the name of the Woke Religion.

Imagine the totalitarian results they could achieve if everyone's healthcare were controlled by a state monopoly with no competitors.

If BLM was more than just a political party seeking to exploit black people, I think they would be focusing more on the #1 killer of black people(gang violence) rather than freak accidents that happen with police.

Yikes! The race essentialism in liberal circles is shocking.

Is there a way to combat racism without making it seem like all these groups are homogeneous, helpless and require this predictable belittling kids gloves treatment to advance?

Even on a qualitative level, reading this stuff, you're struck by the incredibly dogmatic and scripted language.
