Re: How refreshing!
It had been obvious that the definition of "racist" was being stretched for a long while but most people hadn't said anything in opposition for fear of being branded "racist" themselves.
The tipping point actually came when the extreme lefties doing the screaming about racism were actually proven to be the nastiest and scariest antisemitic (and therefore by definition) racist nutters in the country by a mile. All along these nasty pieces of work had been pointing fingers at everybody else and screaming to deflect attention from themselves.
And then we reached the critical point; one day the people who had been used to summoning a lynch mob on command called for one, and screamed "mob him" then wondered why everybody lynched the person trying to form the lynch mob instead of their commanded target.
