You can't have your cake and eat it too.




Democrats normally only care about statistical rates. Say, 9 percent of blacks being traffic stopped over 5 percent of whites.


Citing raw numbers is bad faith arguing.

Interesting 92% of blacks unvaccinated in texas and 65% of whites unvaccinated, I wonder if that counts all the ppl coming in over the boarder unvaccinated and getting shipped around the usa as well.

No, what you are doing is bad faith arguing. You need to compare rates as a percentage of population, you fool.

Whirly's link. "About 8% of the eligible population in Texas that has been vaccinated is Black"

But that quote says that 8% of eligible people vaccinated in texas are black not that only 8% of black people are vaccinated.

U guys see how those two things are different...right?

Worth noting that black people in the south can be as dumb as white people when it comes to being anti-vaxxers due to the common denominator which we shall represent with "Muh God, muh bible"

Right, but the article flat out says blacks lag behind whites as a percentage, yet whites have far more unvaccinated in terms of raw numbers.


Which is a "no shite" comment. More people will of course give greater amounts of people in just about anything.

They'd have caught it anyway.

Who gives a shit? They comprise 8% of the total population. If their rates are lower, their numbers still do not put a dent into the problem. This is just racist bullshit from you.

Black people and minorities tend to be more vaccine sceptical. Thats related to their mistrust of the government.

That said vaccine scepticism is very different to being anti-vaccine and anti masks and anti social distancing and anti vaccine passports e.t.c. e.t.c. Those people are just outright dumb AF and self destructive to us all, no matter what their race.

Well, in this case, white people in the state are the ****ing problem. I know math is hard for you, but they are the largest percentage of the population, and have the lowest rate of vaccination.

No, they comprise 12% of Texas' population. They account for 8% of the vaccinations. 35% of the vaccinations are white people, who make up 40% of the population, all according to this one link.

The amount of black vaccinations is in fact disproportionately lower than the amount of white vaccinations.

Patrick is still wrong because in this instance raw number of cases is more important for likelihood to spread the disease but no, Texas' black population is disproportionately unvaccinated compared to white people if I've read the article correctly.

Old Man Whirly!
Number of people fully vaccinated: 13,255,217
Percentage of population fully vaccinated: 45.71

According to the most recent ACS, the racial composition of Texas was: White: 73.97% Black or African American: 12.13%

55% of Texas are not vaccinated if all Black people were Vaccinated 42% would still be unvaccinated.

Only 57% of the vaccinated are white. That means that of the total 100% population only 25.65% are vaccinated white people making almost two-thirds of the white population is unvaccinated and approximately 4x the entire black population. Numbers are rounded up because I was bored.

Does it matter if they are white or black? Surely what matters is doing away with the mad anti-vax, anti-mask, and pro-(Covid is all made up) conspiracies.

I'm not even sure the intent is legit. From what I read, the Texas governor was just asking why the left is dogpiling Republicans over the vaccine when blacks and latino's are anti-vax, and vote Democrat.


Who is a bigger portion of anti-vax isn't the issue, it's the left ignoring the splinter in their eye to point out the toothpick in the rights.

Please show his lie.


He said blacks are the biggest portion of unvaxed. And by percentage, they are.


Democrats need to worry about blacks and latino's who refuse to vaccinate, not white trumpers "over there".

Right so its not a black/white thing.

Anti-Vaxers can obviously vote Dems or Republicans.

But a lot of the anti-vaccine preachers do seem to be from the Christian Right. At least thats the impression im getting from the media. Could be false.
