horrible diets, obesity, lack of proper nutrition, etc.
I would add that both of those groups are more social also. Growing up I noticed that in black neighborhoods in the evening people were on their porches and outside more. White people tended to be inside watching TV.

Fauci is a bigger liar and attention whore than ANY of these popular "social media influencers".
seriously ... frick that guy. frick him straight to hell
the amount of fear mongering and destruction he has caused this country over the last year is monumental.
and now here he is still grasping at straws and desperately trying to hold on to his fame... I'm sure by next month he'll be given a permanent spot on Jimmy Kimmel or Stephen Colbert, etc.

It’s the fact that many don’t have transportation & in Louisiana in August it’s much too difficult to ride a CATS bus with grocery bags of chicken breasts & vegetables when chips & processed foods are much easier to carry

That Louisiana Purchase card and the stimmies stay hittin’ baw! No excuse for people of color to have inadequate diets unless, of course, they buy unhealthy junk food, which I’ve seen firsthand is unfortunately the case in Louisiana—they oughta be stocking up on rice and pintos.

I would think that a virus would be impossible to be labeled as racist but i knew some how and someway that a white person would figure out how to call this racist.
So, my question is, who can black folks blame for this?

Black people are fat because of racism is quite a take. How does he explain the far white southerners?

Vegetables are cheaper than cookies. Water is cheaper than sugary soda. People make choices about what they choose to eat and drink. Calories don’t give a f what color you are.

I cannot stand that little beady-eyed prick.

Korkstand agrees with this.

It’s good enough when utilized for healthy food, not cases of Fanta, Hawaiian Punch, snack cakes, and dill pickle chips.

Since the dawn of time they've always been Hunter Gatherers, only now they're Hunting for anything free and Gathering as much as they can. Sometimes things never change, and its always our fault.

What we (white people)
No, no princess. Your attempt to divide along racial lines ends here. I’d bet dollars to donuts you wouldn’t dare generalize a statement beginning with “what black people...”
Racism has undeniably existed. It’s still here today, but by no means as prevalent as it has been in decades and centuries past. And COVID sure as shite isn’t racist. There are no barriers to minorities getting loans, running for public office, receiving education, obtaining real estate, holding high level positions in the private sector, etc. Have we forgotten that there was a black president, AGs, and currently a SC justice? And it’s getting better every day when you look past those who race bait.
In the past 4 years the minority communities saw their highest wage growth and lowest unemployment. 100% denoting upward mobility. There’s no reckoning to be had. At least not with the generic white folk. Now the politicians who have crafted this cradle to grave “govt assistance” mentality, I reckon they might need to speak to their failures.

Poor has nothing to do with it, other than the decision-making.
Yes it does when it comes to “access to health care”
It also means maybe you can’t afford a gym membership, or a personal trainer, or things that could give you additional help rather than just trying to figure out a way to eat healthier foods.
Also, more often than not income is equivalent to educational level. You probably won’t fond someone that is smart and hard working just sitting around satisfied making $12 an hour
