Rising drug and alcohol overdoses, suicides, and disease from chronic alcoholism labeled deaths of despair by one expert are cutting the lives of white Americans short by nearly a half a year on average.
Increases in these types of deaths among whites means that life expectancy for whites is not increasing as fast as it is for other groups, according to a government report that offers an unusual look at how different threats are affecting U.S. lifespans.
Things are moving in the wrong direction, said Anne Case, a Princeton University researcher, of what she calls deaths of despair. [ ]
Though the gap is closing, white life expectancy is still significantly greater than life expectancy for blacks.

I’m sure there’s an anti-fungal cream for that....
You can go on being race blind all you want but all those non-whites aren’t gonna share that perspective.

Hey, if people want to believe that the color or your skin should and must say something ineffable about who you are and should be then they are in the category idiots, nitwits, and progressives.
I expect those in life anyway. They’re like turds floating in public toilets..
Neither surprised nor caring if I meet one. Perfectly willing to tell any SJW that their whole world view is nonsense, idiotic even.
The idea that race is just “skin color” is liberal nonsense and even if it wasn’t non-whites don’t and will not share that point of view.
We could call it: “Regulatory Decapture”
Why would I believe anything from the vile, lying neo-nazis at AP?
Stuff it up your pants, neo-Nazi scum.
so stay alive...stay vibrant...keep voting...keep up you associations with other people ...
but don't retreat...and God help you, don't give in or give up....
The despair is six months shorter?
I have never believed that I could count on the government for my success or happiness. The answer isn’t politics.
Yet pretty much all the race baiters see is skin color.
Not only do they want to work corruptions of blood against those in the not-we group, some loons these days will even assume innocent-by-blood ... as if past wrongs done against X group absolves members of that group if they do wrong now.
The thing about abstractions of people is that to even accept these as important is to introduce the some of same immortality into questions of suffering or guilt because abstractions of persons, unlike flesh and blood Persons, do not die and so there is no natural sunset on either suffering or guilt as actually happens in the real world when Persons die.
Which is to say: “justice” rendered to social constructs (social justice) is inherently incompatable with the justice due to actual Persons. To paraphrase John Marshall in Marbury: either race is unimportant to or it will become very and between these there is no real middle ground.
The best response to SJWs is to laugh in their faces, mock them and deride their whole philosophy as idiotic and destructive. And when they get mad laugh all the more. Nuts to them and their poodles of malcontentment.
I have said for years that I expect America to eventually experience a Rwanda-scale civil conflict. 0bama and the Left have brought us very near the precipice, IMO.
Globalization is the gift that keeps on giving. There’s a connection with widespread job loss among males. Most of us like having a sense of purpose in addition to the income.
The political class will make it impossible for any individual to succeed without their approval. In large measure, they’ve already implemented this.
Thanks for the great links, FRiend.
folks should check them out.
Many people believe the saying “race IS culture””.
Wimps.
If you drop out now, you can’t lift scalps later.
This old peckerwood ain’t going anywhere, but he is going to have a punk free lawn.
Yeah, the “you’ll go along to get along ... or else!” crowd.
TO late for one, but I’m waaay ahead on the other.
