Identity Politics Lied. New Yorkers Died
Frontpage Mag ^ | April 2, 2020 | Daniel Greenfield

Posted on 04/02/2020 3:24:32 PM PDT by CheshireTheCat

Last year, New York City Health Commissioner Oxiris Barbot was warning that “even brief contact with the police or indirect exposure is associated with lasting harm to people’s physical and mental health”.

“We as a public health department have really been trying to frame criminal justice system involvement as an exposure,” Barbot’s epidemiologist, Kimberly Zweig, claimed.

Zweig had a degree in epidemiology, but her focus was entirely on PTSD and stress. Not on disease.

Why was New York City so badly unprepared for the arrival of the coronavirus? The answer was radical politics. And Barbot and Zweig embodied the public health mismanagement of a radical administration.

Progressive ideology is “associated with lasting harm to people’s physical and mental health”.

I knew my tagline about Cultural Marxism would bear out in its prediction:

“Cultural Marxism is the cult of the Left waiting for the Mothership.”

If you want to get up-to-speed with the lying, watch Paul Joseph Watson here.

Just what NYC needed, a wise Latina as health commissioner.

Greenfield is one of the best pundits around. He always cuts to the chase with solid facts and analysis.

THIS is what the democrats will give our nation the next time we give them absolute power.

NYC is so dysfunctional at this point at every level of government that I doubt Rudy could straighten it out in two terms. The damage is done and it will be far reaching as you cannot simply fire all of these social justice warrior appointees because this kind of lunacy extends to their deputies, department heads, and even down to the rank and file.

I hope this poster to the article at the source won't mind, but the comments are well worth posting here. Comments are in bold font.

There are many good phrases.

The new leftist government ideology "frame[s] criminal justice system involvement as an exposure." Did you know you can catch it that way?

"[T]he city had its 'first Latina [Health] commissioner.'” Whoa!

She boasts that "she uses a racial equity lens" (i.o.w., she hates white people. Proudly)

The Center for Health Equity which she ran "operationalizes the Department’s commitment to racial justice" and "medicalizes social justice." Have you got plenty of ammo?

"[Y]ou get it from secretions." Rhut rho.

"This new U = U campaign." AA, I have never heard of this one, but it scares the frikkin gaylights outta me.

I don't know. But I do now there is no such thing as coincidence. And though not mentioned here, luck is when preparation meets opportunity.

I find it fasinating that all of the people in this article are women except for De Blasio whose wife tells him what to do. Ok, progressives fire away.
