"it" is considered to be a pronoun used to refer to objects. if you don't want to use the whole xir stuff, then they/them is always an option

seriously please use they as your gender neutral pronoun of choice

anything else is stupid

we have been over this garbage post already
africa has a stuffty health care system and probably can't make a cure for ebola. meanwhile, america is most likely thinking their own and once it's affecting the country they would most likely have to start testing it, unfinished or not. do people honestly think that america was like "we have a cure, but it's not for those BLACKS in AFRICA." we have a black president

uh, no it isn't!!! they/them has been around since the pre-net times! It smacks of misogyny!!!!!

The serum that they're getting is experimental anyways so if it works they can go right back to Africa and give it to the Liberians who suffer from it.

    So let me tell you why this is bullstuff.

    That “cure” everyone is talking about? It isn’t a cure. It’s a drug that hadn’t even been tested on humans before we gave it to those two Americans (who were white, yes, but were also in a missionary group trying to improve the lives of African children it’s not like they were loving tourists or something). They could have both loving died on the spot. The only reason they even gave this unfinished, untested drug to them is because the mortality rate for ebola is like 90% anyway so they thought why the forget not.

    Now let’s have a little thought experiment for you dipstuffs who seriously don’t understand the situation. Imagine we gave this “cure” to every single person in Nigeria, Guinea, Sierra Leone, and Liberia (yeah, it’s pretty loving ignorant to just call them all “Africans”) infected with ebola (getting around the fact that it would be just about impossible to diagnose and treat every single one of them in time)… and they all died anyway. The “cure” didn’t work.

    You same forgetwads would lose your stuff over that. “AMERICAN DRUG KILLS AFRICANS”, you would say. It would be all over Tumblr: “WHY DIDN’T THEY TEST THIS MORE BEFORE GIVING IT OUT OMG” and “USING AFRICANS AS TEST RATS FOR EBOLA DRUG SO WHITE PEOPLE DONT HAVE TO #RACISM”.

    You can’t really be so ignorant that you seriously think it would be a good idea to ship crates of this hitherto-unknown, untested drug to West Africa and just hope for the best.

no but you see, he's black, so his heritage obviously makes it okay to make sweeping, unmerited, uninformed, flat-out-handicapped generalizations.
oh, except he's forgetin' black as a skin color, not an ethnicity anymore.

I bet they'll complain when we find a cure for cancer because "white people made it" or some other bullstuff reason

black is a skin color and ethnicity?

given that black was originally actually meaning that you were from the african continent, but anymore globalization means there are black people in the whitest places on earth:  antarctica, and arkansas. so as an ethnicity you'd have to actually be from the african continent as well.
