Everything is "racist" now!

Quote:
In today’s hypersensitive bizarro environment, where people are quite literally having mental breakdowns following the election of President Donald Trump, everything that used to be normal appears to now elicit howls of racism, xenophobia and sexism.

In the latest example we turn to Iowa, where students from Valley High School attended a basketball game in traditional red, white and blue attire they reportedly wear to big games. One would think that showing support for their team wearing the colors of the U.S. flag wouldn’t even raise an eyebrow, but you’d be wrong.

First, for some context, here is a picture of the offensive clothing worn by Valley High School fans at the game:
It Is Now "BLATANT RACISM" To Wear Red, White And Blue

It's a why claims of racism are no longer relevant.

When it became SOP to scream racism about everything, it lost its meaning.

Do we now live in a country where wearing the colors of the Star Spangled Banner can be construed as racist because they are somehow insensitive to diverse groups of people?
Welcome to Trump's America.

We now live in a country where reporting facts get you called "the enemy of the American people."

For all it's worth we might as well have lost WWII.

Nice misinformation. Your insecurities as a liberal have zero to do with what America is, or who it belongs to.

The fact that liberal whiners are panicked when normal people wear red, white and blue has nothing to do with "Trump's America" or Trump being president. It only is related to the mental psychoses and derangement of liberal nutjobs.

"Facts" have always been DNC propaganda to the Republicans.

Just as "morals" are code word for "whatever get us elected".

As far as I can tell, it is red-state Iowans against red-state Iowans. Where do you get the liberal nutjobs part????

Oh, that's right. Trumpeters can just invent their own facts. Got it.

Because some high school alumn write it on his Facebook page, how is this on anyone's radar? Not the principal, not a teacher, not even a student some dbag that went to high school in Southeast nowhere Iowa, this is what outrages people?
