This article says there’s a racist aspect to brushing your teeth before you go to the dentist. I disagree. I always brush my teeth before I go to the dentist, but it has nothing to do with racism. Why do some people insist on seeing racism everywhere?

YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO DO THAT ALL THE TIME!!! (If you only do it for appointments, the judgement you’re trying to avoid is probably valid.)

DING! DING! DING!
We have a winner!!

I would really like to see a doctor or dentist’s take on how much they like to see dirty, slovenly, tartar caked patients instead of those who clean up before a visit.

Articles about racism are springing up all over. I’m thinking it’s because the folks are not buying into reparations and these articles are to make them change their minds.

Black patients modify speech, dress up to reduce medical bias, survey shows

Isn't this how the entire world works everywhere?

The real you is unattractive and ugly, full of biases, vices and sin. Its best to put on your best public face if you want to get along in the world.

The Left's goal seems to be to reduce blacks to animals, purely dependent on the left for the identity and survival.

“Why do people insist on seeing racism everywhere?”

Because we have allowed our educational and government systems to teach them that it is everywhere, and incentivized perpetual victimhood to buy votes.

That’s why.

In my mind, anyone who has REALLY been a victim of someone or something doesn’t want to be reminded of it. They want to be out of the situation and to move on!

These people who complain about being victims aren’t really victims.

“Why do some people insist on seeing racism everywhere?”

Because most black people can not see beyond the color of their own skin. This particular situation is simply self-induced paranoia. What I would like to say to her is, the only color your dentist is concerned about is your geeen money and insurance card.

If you don’t normally look or sound educated, it’s generally good advice to dress up/alter your speech so you don’t look/sound stupid—regardless of whether you’re seeking medical attention or not.

Of course.

I read of a black man complaining because when whites passed him on the street they would grimace and nod. Well in this neck of the woods that is the acknowledgement everyone gets when they pass. The grimace is a small closed lip smile.

This writer has clearly never read Booker T. Washington's Up from Slavery. Brushing one's teeth was a very big deal for him. If everyone in the country -- not just blacks -- read Booker T, we'd be in a better place.

I take a shower, shave, and brush my teeth when I am not seeing anyone. It just something this racist old bastard does almost every day.

These seem like simple, common sense precautions to take whenever visiting any representative of any profession that has recently involved itself, hugely, in crimes against humanity. (And Does So Still.) It is also foolish to talk to them about guns.

Neither Race, nor Racism, has anything to do with it.

People used to dress up to fly on an airplane. Suits and ties.

A young mother in California’s Antelope Valley bathes her children and dresses them in neat clothes, making sure they look their very best

This used to be the norm. As a kid, my Mom used to make danged sure we were bathed, brushed and properly attired before we went out in public. It also used to be the norm that if you had to go to court for ANY reason, you put on your Sunday best.

So, how is it racist for anyone to do that? How is it Whitey's fault that these customs were eschewed by non-whites?

Because most of the garbage living in this country these days are a bunch of whinyass crybabies. And just flashing a race guard normally gets whitey to piss his/her pants.

This charge of racism is thrown around like candy to rot our teeth. Everyone who eats is gets a bitter taste as does all the gaslighting we get from the ill-educated, atheistic Leftniks. Actually, the entire nation needs a get-Jesus moment. Maybe, this St. Patrick’s Day, we can begin driving the snakes into the sea, as legend tells us. Then, on May 9th, we can celebrate the resurrection of Christ in our nation with a clean spirit of forgiveness.

It so much easier than doing something significant with their lives to receive attention.

All this such nonsense to keep people from focusing on exactly how things are unfolding.

There is too much garbage and too much division which benefits those power.

I knew of a physician who got a patient complaint. The patient was an unemployed druggie who went to this physician for non emergency care. The physician refused to see him as he smelled.His philosophy is that if you don’t work, you have the time to bathe and put on clean clothes before seeing a physician. If you worked, and the smell was from working a job all day, he would see you regardless of how you smelled. Of course the patient complained. Both physician and patient were white.
