I would assume a “victim mentality” also adds to accelerated aging.

What a stupid "cause and effect" conclusion.

Let's try this cause and effect:
Inner city blacks mostly like rap music;
Inner city blacks die at a higher rate than other blacks;
Therefore, rap music is a cause of death for inner city blacks.

Or, blacks have dark skin;
Blacks have a higher incidence of diabetes;
Therefore, dark skin causes diabetes.

Or, many whites listen to country music;
Whites tend to live longer than blacks;
Therefore, those whites who listen to country music live longer than blacks.

Really? The shortening of cell telomeres is caused by perceived racism? This is the same kind of junk science that promotes "global warming", er, "climate change".

Humans produce CO2 by burning fossil fuels; The planet is cooling from reports in the 70's; The planet is warming from reports today; The planet is cooling from other reports today; Therefore, all climate change is due to burning fossil fuels.

People eat rice;
Rice is a carbohydrate;
Carbohydrates can add fat tissue;
Therefore, all cultures who mainly eat rice should be fat.

I or anyone could go on and on with other stupid "cause and effect" examples that are simply not true. It's called false extrapolation. This is the stupidest example I've ever seen.

“Study: Racism May Accelerate Aging In African-American Men”

Then they need to get it out of their systems. It’s bad for their systems to carry around all that hatred of whites.

While they are at it, they can quit disproportionately targeting whites for violent crimes.

Well, if they weren’t racists, they wouldn’t suffer the health harms that befall racists.
