In the latest woke trend, obesity in the black community is now caused by racism. At least that’s the take in the video highlighted by the Daily Wire.
The man on the street interview checks on whether Americans agree. Answers were all over the map. Racism leads to depression that leads to bad food choices. Racism leads to lower income that leads to buying unhealthy food that leads to obesity which leads to racism.
The maddening circle doesn’t quite make sense in the real world though. Back when higher levels of racism have been prevelant in the U.S. and other nations, the mistreatment leads to lower incomes that leads to less food and therefore less obesity.
Obesity, up until recent times, was associated in medieval Europe as associate with wealth. If you had more money you had more food and could do less manual labor and ended up gaining weight. Sounds like a better explanation than the cries from the woke crowd, but hey, that’s probably racist too.
Check out the video and hear what people are saying today in the latest Daily Wire video.
WHEN EVERY REASON IS NOT SUPPORTED….IT’S RACISM. DUMB AS A ROCK EXCUSE
Absolutely agree,everything these days is associated with racism,it’s out of control and this administration is the blame
Obesity has more to do with food choices. The only racist thing is that each different white culture has different foods many using cabbage as a base in cooking. I think no one ever got fat on saurkraut.
NY & CA. are thorns in the side of the rest of the USA. It is because of these two states & their Liberal Demonic inhabitants, Other states want to succeed. Liberal New Yorkers & Californicators are universally despised.
Liberalism is a Demonic sickness, these cockroaches are NOT welcome anywhere else. The liberal News outlets in those two states serve no useful purpose to society.
What a stupid statement! Why is racism the reason for all bad things?? If you buy junk food with your EBT card and sit on your fanny in front of the TV, you too will gain weight. Is that anyone else’s fault – take responsibility for your actions.
Racism leads to racist depression, which leads to racist racist food choices. Racism leads to racist income, which leads to racist purchase of racist food, which leads to racist obesity, which leads to racist racism. Total: – AH, OH! – SYSTEMIC RACISM! (author – racist AOC)
Some people today try to equate racism with everything (white) people say, do, or think. Those same people, by and large believe only white people can be racist. All of this proves there is no shortage of ignorance in the ranks of white liberals. Stop dwelling on what people thought 200 years ago. You don’t have to throw out the Constitution because it was written in a time when people owned other people. It’s principles and values are good ones. “… all men are created equal…” We should have enough sense in today’s world to interpret that as all people are created equal no matter if they are male or female, black, white, brown or purple. All lives matter and until we truly believe that, I guess we’ll just keep on killing each other. It’s sad to think we can’t all rise above that. All of this wokeness and social upheaval centered around race and reparations etc. IS NOT what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. fought and died for. Peace on earth, good will to men (and women)
