Many people were startled, to say the least, by a Black History communication from Rachel Levine, Biden’s assistant secretary for the Department of Health and Human Services. This man dressed up as a woman in medical/military garb of some sort has knit together the full range of woke ideology in one short video that you have to see to believe.
This #BlackHistoryMonth I'm honored to join @MinorityHealth in Advancing Better Health Through Better Understanding for Black communities. Explore more at https://t.co/cVkHNKRu7i and don't miss next Thursday's clip to hear insights from another HHS leader. pic.twitter.com/a2QlM9bpdd

In it, he/she claims that climate change is having “a disproportionate effect on the physical and mental health of black communities.”
Therefore, his/her Office of Climate Change and Health Equity, and also the Office of Environment Justice, are studying ways to work with partners and community leaders to address this grave problem.
There we go with what is being called the woke trifecta: gender fluidity, climate change, and anti-racism, all in a one-minute video!
I know what you are thinking. It’s not possible to make this stuff up, much less write a parody of it. It is itself a parody. The spooky aspect of this is that there is no regular person who could possibly take this video seriously. But it’s worse: one suspects that they know this. This is simply a method by which they let you know that they are in charge and can believe, say, and do whatever they want.
Also, who knew there was an Office of Climate Change and Health Equity at the Department of Health and Human Services? And another Office of Environment Justice?
As a side note, it is devastating to consider how people in other lands around the world respond to such displays. Quite frankly, this is a disgrace to the United States, and the kind of thing that makes America a laughingstock globally. It’s simply humiliating. And perhaps that’s the point.
In any case, I became curious about the particular empirical claim that forms the basis of this video. He/she says that 65 percent of black Americans report feeling anxious about the impact of climate change. You hear that and think: this stretches the bounds of plausibility.
The only people I’ve ever known who feel anxiety about what is called “climate change”—which used to be called “global warming” until they realized that this slogan was too falsifiable—are urban white progressives among the professional managerial class.
