Cancer is focused on minorities...kind of like interstate overpasses!

Don't listen to that weak pandering narrative....because that is all it is!

They keep jacking around with the misinformation in healthcare and they are going to find this in every race.

ESPN and SEC Network's promotion of "V-Foundation" says there are "racial disparities in cancer outcomes". Can't even promote a good cause without accusing the disease of racism.

I noticed this also. MSM always has to make race an issue

That pitch is on ABC as well. From the look of the commercials airing whitey isn’t much of a thing these days anyway. Has anyone else noticed this?

The actual racism is in the fact that they feel they can’t be honest with blacks.


This is a very profound observation and statement. And it is true. Never had thought of that before. I will remember this.

When everything is free for you ( healthcare /education/phones/housing/food), it’s hard for me to have sympathy and hear how the system is gamed against a particular race in 2021 .

The government literally pays for everything and people still bitch and complain

I think you may be confused on the definition of disparity here.

People on Medicaid (ie disproportionately minorities) actually get treatment more quickly than insurance patients because medicaid generally just approves stuff more quickly (though they only pay 10 cents on the dollar)

Whenever anyone says that racism isn't an issue on here, I can't believe they can just gloss over comments like this.

Everything is not free for black people. Don't be stupid.

That's because they are a division of the DNC.

It's sexist too. Breast cancer primarily attacks women.

I think I understand why the racist shite on here doesn't ever get called out. You think not being racist is virtue signaling.

Diet definitely plays a role too. I’ve been in the restaurant industry a long time and it’s impossible not to notice the eating habits of certain demographics. Blacks, especially black women tend to take it to the extreme. Extra condiments, extra seasoning, extra toppings, extra sides, extra sugar. It’s damn near gluttonous. I’ve watched people pour packets of raw sugar into soft drinks and then proceed to pound down 6 or 7 of those drinks in one sitting. When you’re diet is complete trash and you’re consuming massive amounts of sugar and sodium in one sitting, your risk of things like diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity dramatically increases

But they’re also saying healthy freshly grown food is racist also. These people are nazis and like all fascist once they gained control of language and accepted speech every word, meaning everything, has become weaponized to target their political opposition.
