Democrats are worrying the “Medical Reverse Racism” next MAGA misinformation circlejerk ahead of the midterms might be more effective than reality can handle, Politico reports. First highlighted by the Orange God Emperor in a rant at his Arizona rally ten days ago, the premise is that since some hospitals and health systems use race and ethnicity as a criteria when rationing limited supplies of anti-virals, favoring non-whites over whites to try and correct the racial inequalities endemic to the nation’s healthcare system. Never mind that this rationing almost certainly wouldn’t be necessary if all people – white, black, brown, whatever – would just have gotten themselves fucking vaccinated against COVID-19 before they got sick, a situation exacerbated by right wing media and politicians encouraging vaccine “freedom” for their fucking idiot fanbase.
“There will always be people susceptible to cries of ‘reverse racism.’ They become a dog with a bone on these issues, whether it’s real or imagined,” former DNC spokesman turned health advocate Brad Woodhouse told Politico. A GOP strategist said the party will find a way to squeeze a their “All Lives Matter”-style bullshit in as a rider to a bill in Congress. “There’s not a ton we can do now. But if there’s another vote-a-rama, expect an amendment on this. It’ll be a tough vote for Democrats,” the strategist said. “And if Republicans take back Congress, expect investigations and oversight. We will make the officials who signed off on it come up here and defend it.”
