No, idiot, I'm 55 and consequently didn't grow up with the moronic snowflake social media society that I'd suggest you did......I'd suggest you immediately respond and post rather than look into the facts.

I was only joking but my word, so many bold assumptions in such few lines.

This "snowflake social media society" that you think I'm part of is a media narrative, pushed to divide more than connect and as long as people like you continue to use that narrative in real life, it will continue to do that. It's also pretty ironic that you called me a snowflake and yet responded with name calling after 2 words in your response.

Our society is racist, which disadvantages some people but I'm assuming that there is more to the worse covid-19 effects than the cumulative, compound disadvantages that BAME people here and elsewhere face. It will be good to see the evidence

Thank you, there's far too much "unsupported" sensational journalism at work here, I'm finding this clearly a racist programme, In Reverse, channel 4 should be ashamed.

Apparently it was also sexist at the start. Then it turned out more men were dying

Then it was instantly declared that the men might be dying but the women were doing the suffering

If you look at the tv schedule for this evening most of it is pure and utter shite.

I would suggest why don’t you turn off your TV set and go do something far less boring.............

Also I would strongly advise cancelling your TV licence and avoiding all mainstream media. Their sole aim is to cause division and encourage professional victimhood

It's a headline looking for content, whether it's scientifically researched or not... The fact that behaviour may also be a factor seems to be overlooked in favour of more sensationalist taglines

You are right, absolutely so, but doesn't that mean they can produce programmes which they believe are right?

Not feeling abused at all. I just thought it was very strong response to what was only a joke on my part that clearly didn't land as well as I'd hoped. No apologies necessary

It's a title designed to attract attention

I'd say it's done it's job

And who knows, maybe there's actually something to be learned from the programme

The title is abrupt.

The documentary is not calling the virus racist,it’s talking about how ethnic minorities have been affected during this whole pandemic.

Not just black people, Asian people and people from the Filipino community.

Being front line workers and the division it has caused.

Don’t worry it’s not asking you to bend a knee.

You will always get this problem in Society

You can’t have a debate without some Dicks going off the subject and talking shit about bending knee

To point is if you look at the docs nurses care staff etc their mostly from the BAME Community so they been exposed to the virus at a higher level

So it’s nothing to do with if covid is Racist it’s the exposure

So if you have 100.000 people and only let’s say 20% not From not From BAME community working in in them jobs I said chances of em getting less if that helps

The title is subjective, why are BAME more at risk. Dig deep and you will probably find that covid itself isnt racist but the society and lack of opportunity has caused the increase to BAME.

Interesting to hear your observation that most Dr's nurses and care home staff are BAME origin. Maybe its just my location but my mums care home, local hospital, and Dr's surgery... The opposite is true... Most are Caucasian.

is covid racist? not as such, your more likely to get covid being asian due to the culture of multi generations living in one home, plus add in factors of older generations struggle reading english and to ge honest most likely to shrug at it ...

most older asians grew up with the likes of t.b, small pox and rickets ... so telling them to do as there told when the survival rate is above 99 percent is going to be quite hard.

Yes the interesting thing about the corvid family of birds is that they are all capable of mimicing human speech. So are corvids racist? It all depends on what words they have been taught to say. If you get a magpie saying things like "fecking parrots, coming over here, waggling their bloody tail feathers at our women, stealing our shiny bits..."

Is covid racist... The headline got people's attention didn't it? Is air racist?.... You can ask if anything is racist and find some hopped up justification.

There's real racism going on and this type of headline writing surely just does damage to those causes.

problem is you cant have a debate or discussion with out labels, accusations thrown around.

yes the headline got attention, but there is a question to be had as why it goes through some communities like a dose of salts.

Because we have the decadence of too much time to pick arguments that have no outcome. Because we generally are poorly educated at accepting different opinions and too lazy to any proper research, preferring instead to trust krazy Karen off instashag as I like the cut of her jib.
