We’ve reached a point where, whenever I see someone called a racist, I assume it’s a false accusation - and after reading the article, my suspicion is usually confirmed. The term has been so overused that it’s lost much of its meaning. What he said was needlessly personal and inflammatory, but I don’t see the racism that so many others here seem to.
Would he have mentioned a beeper if the recipient was a white Christian? It hasn’t lost any of it’s meaning it’s just that some people are incapable or unwilling to recognize it unless it’s backed by a nazi symbol, white hoods, or overt calls for racial violence. Your inability to recognize reality does not mean reality ceases to the exist.
Is it not exactly the other way around?
I see so many actual racists that they don’t even feel ashamed anymore. Of course, I call much more people racist because there are way more openly racist people!
Stop being racist and then you don’t get called a racist by the public.
