It’s disgusting and I agree at the very core, it’s racist.
I have noticed the same thing and I agree with you.

I don’t mean to derail the thread, but I have to admit I have heard about things that caused me trepidation about posting different views on this forum. People who have spoken up have not just been mocked, but also completely silenced.
