COVID isn’t racist. Our treatments shouldn’t be racist, either.

The moral rot of race-based government policies is putting lives at risk as some states and cities refuse to give coronavirus treatments to white people.

Enough is enough. Once and for all, no government anywhere should condition its benefits or its judgments on the perceived race of a person. Moreover, even in the realm of private affairs, we all should stop obsessing about race and skin color. Making judgments on the basis of race is the very definition of racism, pure and simple — and taking actions based on racial judgments is racial discrimination. Racial discrimination, always and everywhere, is invidious.
