In a way, it is. "Racist" is a magic word now. A magic word that means "kill this fucker, he deserves it." If you're called a racist, it means there's now a target on your head, no one's going to come to your defense when you're attacked, and most everyone will spit on your corpse once the deed is done.

We saw that with Austin Metcalf. Half the country firmly believes he deserved to get stabbed in the heart purely because he was OBVIOUSLY wacist to the poor innocent future doctor who just wanted to get out of the wain. And that his brother should also be killed, alongside the whole family. Same for Charlie Kirk. Murdered in bright daylight in front of his own daughter...and half the country will tell you to your face he had it coming. And I'm sure it's only a matter of time before Rittenhouse gets killed as well; he may have beat the courts, but the left will never forgive him for his transgression of continuing to exist as the WACIST he is, and many are itching to correct that error.

Little surprise people are afraid of getting the racist label. It's excommunication for the modern age.
