Was anyone surprised by the usage of the word? like have you seen a single person using it, they 100% do it to be racist to black people but indirectly, also the George Floyd one has been a “meme” for like a few years now
Yeah the robo racism shit is obvious as fuck. The more insidious thing that has been going on much longer is how stereotypes about dog breeds (specifically pit bulls) being “genetically predisposed to violence” has been one way that eugenics and race science have wormed their way back into the liberal public consciousness since the 80s. Once someone can be convinced that behavioral traits can be endemic in ones genetic makeup it’s a very short leap for them to be convinced to apply that to humans.
someone should remind the cops that they’re not exempt from being made fun of either.

the stereotype about pitbulls is because pitbulls are usually owned by black people
Not just that but a dog is more likely to be identified as a pitbull if the owner is black or latino.
