Former Congressman Jamaal Bowman made shocking claims on CNN about health issues in the black community. He argued that higher rates of heart disease, cancer, and obesity among African Americans result directly from racial stress. Bowman specifically blamed the impact of being called the n-word for these health disparities.
During a heated exchange with former Trump official Marc Short, Bowman declared, “I’m a black man in America!” to emphasize his perspective. He asserted that daily exposure to racism creates physical stress causing these diseases. Bowman insisted Republicans refuse to address America’s “disease of hate” towards minorities.
This flawed logic ignores real factors like diet, exercise, and personal responsibility. Conservatives know health outcomes stem from lifestyle choices, not political slogans. Bowman’s oversimplification insults the intelligence of hardworking Americans.
His comments reflect liberal victimhood culture that blames external factors instead of empowering individuals. True patriots understand health comes from personal decisions, not political grievances. Bowman’s approach divides Americans rather than uniting us.
Bowman’s credibility is already damaged by his fire alarm scandal where he misled investigators. Now he pushes dangerous medical misinformation on national television. His remarks undermine genuine efforts to improve community health.
Mainstream media platforms like CNN give Bowman a stage for these ridiculous claims. They never challenge such offensive stereotyping when it comes from liberals. This double standard fuels distrust in media.
Black communities deserve real solutions, not political scapegoating. Bowman should promote healthy living instead of peddling racial conspiracy theories. His rhetoric harms the people he claims to represent.
Americans see through this toxic narrative. We believe in personal agency and reject Bowman’s excuse-making. His comments reveal how far leftists will go to avoid personal responsibility.
