Unfortunately, this is becoming more common in real life too. Any remotely political discussion is 10% discussion, 90% trying to get ahead of the mob and prove that you're not racist before they even make the accusation.
We've gone from "I have noticed that people unlike myself behave differently than I do" to "I have black friends, but some stereotypes are real" to "I am an ally to black bodies and lgbtq persyns, but I don't entirely agree that all white people should be kicked into mass graves while they're still alive simply for the crime of being born white".
