 Also, anyone who thinks people are fighting for a bigger piece of the economic pie is ignoring the fact that people are trying to hang on to a percentage of the piece that's been shrinking for decades.
Finally, haven't you gotten enough mileage out of the word, "trope." It's really enough already, isn't it?

Oh, the right doesn't deny there's racism. I suspect almost all righties I know would express horror at this. (There'd be some dumbasses who would say dreadlocks are dangerous in wrestling, and the ref did the kid a favor, but those are the real shitheads.) The right denies there is
institutional racism. It's when you say, for instance, "the justice system is racist," that they bristle. Telling them their uncle who used slurs was a racist is fine.
