    Racism accusations are tossed around so carelessly, flippantly that soon enough the resultant callousness will deaden the effect. The world seems to think if you are suspected of racism you are a piece of rat filth, while pedophile perverts are upstanding citizens.

    Yes. Pedophiles are innocent until proven guilty, they have opportunity to defend themselves with real evidence. The accusation of racism is near perfect for those bearing false witness as you cannot defend against it, the mere accusation is proof enough. You are also right in that the charge of racism doesn't mean much anymore, you may as well accuse someone of having the cooties.

    Trump has cooties!

    According to Fox news one of the four, Rashida Tlaib, referred to Trump when she tweeted "deport that *sshole" after he had called for some kind of a ban on Muslim immigration. Seems that this is not about racism, rather it's about which political side is speaking.

    Seems? Most of us have known for a long time it isn't about racism. To repost something I already have in this thread from Carlson Tucker:

    "What are the odds in real life that AOG actually believes that Nancy Pelosi is a racist? Or that Joe Biden is a racist? Or for that matter that Donald Trump is a racist? What are the chances she really thinks that?

    Probably about zero. The first thing to know about the cries of racism that you hear incessantly from the left, they are totally insincere. No one saying it actually believes it. The point isn't to get rid of racism. The point is to seize power. And it works.

    Denouncing someone as racist is a kind of a rhetorical stun grenade. For a moment the accused just stands there looking off balanced and bewildered. That's when you scoop up the loot and run.

    Grievance politics is a kind of a smash and grab operation. Entirely effective. It's no surprise that the left justifies its entire political program in the name of fighting bigotry. "

    Probably about zero. The first thing to know about the cries of racism that you hear incessantly from the left, they are totally insincere. No one saying it actually believes it. The point isn’t to get rid of racism. The point is to seize power. And it works.

    That tactic makes sense if the opponent is worse than yourself, which makes it a matter of exaggeration. In this case Rashida Tlaib's own tweet is far worse than Donald Trump's and both are about denouncing their opponents based on their politics. So it seems that justice is not to be equal, rather it should only be applied to non-liberals.
