Virtue Signaling Gone Mad
Okay, we get it. Racism is bad. Racists are bad. In spite of what the media, academia, and social justice warriors tell us, most Americans are decidedly not racist and the numbers that are, are notably less so than many other countries.
"Condemn" racism -- and while you're at it, maybe thieves, rapists, and spiders. Prove you're one of the good guys. We get it. Most of Hollywood, establishment media, corporate America, and entertainment are virtuous. A few hundred other people, for whatever reason, are hate-filled, insecure, mean-spirited RACISTS.
In this whole overblown B.S. About Trump's choice of words is the implicit underlying issue; no one is supposed to question the motives or actions of Antifa (largely violent communist / anarchist groups), Black Lives Matter (a group that has now slid off into cliche boiler plate radical leftism), and other groups "on all sides" whose shit stinks every bit as much as the racist neo Nazi wannabes.
It should be noted that the Nazi groups now rallying their pathetic mob are, like the originals they seek to copy, hard core statists who believe in a powerful coercive central government -- they are not conservative, as much as Democrats and their spokespersons in the media seek to paint them as such.
Now, can we hear Obama, Hillary, and other statists "renounce" Bill Ayers, Jeremiah Write, Saul Alinsky, Castro, Chavez, and the terrorist murderers that Clinton and Obama pardoned?
