You can't have your cake and eat it too.
In Texas, the vaccination rate among Black people is low compared with other racial and ethnic groups, but in terms of raw numbers, the biggest group of the unvaccinated is white people.
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.

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

Whirly's link.
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?

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.

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.
