Are you serious? From Tuskegee to Great Society to Clinton and Obama, govt/Dems have promised blacks help, mortal support etc. In the end trillions have been spent on "programs" that enrich lily white woke bureaucrats with Ivy League degrees and losers like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, that have largely destroyed black families.

Indeed, blacks are the object of most of the vaccine propaganda - their "NO" is being interpreted by these bureaucrats as insolence. My suspicion is that Tuskegee is being reinforced by #WalkAway and similar red-pill movements.

I hope in 90 years my progeny remains distrustful of statists, though I suspect someone in 2111 will just tell future Deplorables who speak of the 2020 election etc. that they are just victim role playing.

It seems the real Fascists in this country are the Democrat Party leadership and their control over the media

Exactly. It’s like the Left White leadership wants the minorities to take the vaccinations first. There must be something wrong with the vaccinations

I think you’re generalizing bit based on what the media presents. There are many who have been brainwashed, but the ones in homeschooling and evangelicalism tend to be in line with evangelical homeschoolers of other ethnicities.

It was an observation based on the narratives we’ve been hearing. I have heard both complaints at different times from different sources.

The Tuskegee Experiment went on for _forty_ years.

The “experts”, “scientists” and “leaders” all looked the other way.

The distrust was _earned_.

This is ridiculous. The vaccinators are from the government and are only here to help.

I don’t trust the vaccines, either. If they will lie about the hydroxychloriquine cocktail, why wouldn’t they lie about the vaccines?

I got COVID-19 in early October; found a way to get hydroxychloriquine, took it with the other drugs that are part of the cocktail; tested negative in less than five days.

You know, I had a woman reject me when I asked her out on a date. I was 16 then. Did it stop me from asking women out on dates? Did I claim PTDS and vow not to be disappointed again.

You’re comparing rejection by a woman in high school to this:
