  • This is so stupid and even stupider that this moron is now, somehow, becoming more accepting even if he still fundamentally retains that racism. People can change after major health events and I guess I’m glad the person in the story is taking a step towards being better even if it’s for the dumbest reason imaginable.

    I have had parents ask (me) if we can assure the blood we’re giving their kid is from white people. Which… no, we dont take down that data. The kid either gets this blood or they keep getting sicker. Wanna risk your kids life on your racism??? It’s the same fucking blood. Since there’s a donor shortage where I live, we end up importing blood from the US from paid donors. Who inevitably are black and brown because it’s usually poor people who do that for survival and black and brown people are disproportionately poor. So that kid with racist parents probably IS gonna get life saving blood extracted at the proverbial knife’s edge of capitalist immiseration from the very people the parents are racist against
