In response to "Is this racist to you?" by David

I don't think so?

I think it's just getting at the risk of more people overall (and theoretically more that will not be socially distancing sufficiently), but who knows.

It felt like an implication that those NBA athletes would infect the paying white people at the parks to me. - David May 27, 09:32 7
- Given that the guests are also an infection risk, I would have phrased the question differently. - Roger More May 27, 09:47
- I didn't read it that way at all. -- nm - znufrii, silly old man May 27, 09:38 2
  - And as the NBA is testing like crazy, the risk is more-so the other way. -- nm - Spawn May 27, 09:39 1
    - That's the thing. Since we know that, it felt like a "reassure our white viewers" question. -- nm - David May 27, 09:41
- I read it as both ways (the infection risk, not racism). -- nm - Spawn May 27, 09:38
- I don’t know the NBA, I get that it’s predominately black. But it can’t be exclusively so, is it? -- nm - Qale May 27, 09:35 1
  - I think it's around 75% black -- nm - decline May 27, 09:37
