  That’s how you become an organ donor. If people want to be racist let them be racist, at home with their medical issue still ongoing, they can either stop being racist, they can die of sepsis. But can be their choice.

  Sounds like a solution. Not a problem. Let them die out quicker this way.

  These are probably the same people who voted Brexit. That backfired. Instead of healthcare positions being filled by Europeans they’re now being filled by people further afield.

  I can’t be nice for the people receiving this abuse. If I could I’d let them know there are good people here too, not just the rotten racists.

  Hmmm…I seem to be critically injured. Should I act decent? Nah, let’s insult the person trying to help me.

    Nah, these people think the nonwhite nurses and doctors will somehow harm them, negligently or intentionally kill them, etc.

    Because that’s what these racists would do to nonwhite patients.

  This sounds like it could sort itself out given some time.

    Racism hasn’t traditionally been regarded as a particularly logical position.

      Actually it has been, hence "scientific" racism.

    It serves the empire's purpose if more "disposables" die from their own choices and absolve the ruling classes of responsibility.

    Given how Germany treats its Syrians, I don't think so.
