This is sinister. The implications are not a joke. By placing an act or actions, let alone a statement or expression that is perceived as racist as a public health issue, we can eliminate certain due process protections for people accused of such actions.

By making racism however it is perceived a health issue it can be moved away from criminal or civil rights actions in the courts, which require a high burden of proof, to a health and hygiene issue which require a lesser standard for action. Civil mental health commitments could be made based on perceived racist comments, actions or drawings, akin to a person making sucidal statements or depressive behaviors. The "Red Flag" ideas for gun owners can now be purported upon people for actions that are seen as racist. This isn't symbolic in Massachusetts this is a side step around free speech and due process protections under the guise of a health crisis. Massachusetts has taken a very scary step with this.

The most serious "public health problem" is STUPIDITY.

Its the same tactic the left has used on gun control.

You have the disease called racism, and it is contagious. You will need to be quarantined. Report to Camp R for re-education.
