I have to wonder how many people actually believe this poo poo, and how many people make posts like this 'for the lulz'.

Then I remember Jan 6th and I get really sad.

Is there a grocery store anywhere at the moment that won't let you come in without a mask? Mask usage has ticked up quite a bit (where I live anyways) due to Delta, but there are still a decent number of unmasked people inside.

So chuds know communities of color distrust medicine because of people like those very chuds and are attempting to weaponize it. Jesus fuckin christ man.

In 1932, the USPHS, working with the Tuskegee Institute, began a study to record the natural history of syphilis. It was originally called the “Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male” (now referred to as the “USPHS Syphilis Study at Tuskegee”). The study initially involved 600 Black men – 399 with syphilis, 201 who did not have the disease. Participants’ informed consent was not collected. Researchers told the men they were being treated for “bad blood,” a local term used to describe several ailments, including syphilis, anemia, and fatigue. In exchange for taking part in the study, the men received free medical exams, free meals, and burial insurance.

By 1943, penicillin was the treatment of choice for syphilis and becoming widely available, but the participants in the study were not offered treatment.

In 1972, an Associated Press storyexternal icon about the study was published. As a result, the Assistant Secretary for Health and Scientific Affairs appointed an Ad Hoc Advisory Panel to review the study. The advisory panel concludedpdf iconexternal icon that the study was “ethically unjustified”; that is, the “results [were] disproportionately meager compared with known risks to human subjects involved.” In October 1972, the panel advised stopping the study. A month later, the Assistant Secretary for Health and Scientific Affairs announced the endexternal icon of the study. In March 1973, the panel also advised the Secretary of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare (HEW) (now known as the Department of Health and Human Services) to instruct the USPHS to provide all necessary medical care for the survivors of the study.1 The Tuskegee Health Benefit Program (THBP) was established to provide these services. In 1975, participants’ wives, widows and children were added to the program. In 1995, the program was expanded to include health, as well as medical, benefits. The last study participant died in January 2004. The last widow receiving THBP benefits died in January 2009. Participants’ children (10 at present) continue to receive medical and health benefits.

Might be ancillary to the thread discussion, but Black Americans have very good reason to distrust the American medical apparatus that stretch back far, far further than the existence of what we commonly refer to as a "chud."

Started in 1932, the Tuskegee experiments were overseen by both presidents Hoover and FDR.

I find the hesitancy in the face of historic crimes to be a little less compelling in the case of the COVID pandemic. Like, look around. See all the millions upon millions of white people jabbing vaccines into their arms as fast as possible? All the millions and millions of brown people across the world doing the same?

I'm not sure what else you could be saying other than that Black people should put their (legitimate!) misgivings about the American healthcare system to the side and do what whitey's doing, for The Greater Good

They should do it for their own, personal good. To protect themselves and their families from dying of COVID-19.

Do you think that you could walk up to an unvaccinated Black person with these concerns about the historical treatment of Black people by the medical pharmaceutical industry/agencies, say "look at all the white people getting the shot, it's totally fine!" and change their mind, knowing that during the Tuskegee experiments the treatment for syphillis was readily available and was deliberately withheld from the unwitting participants in favor of other poo poo?

Of course they should. That's why everyone who can, should get the shot.
