One day, the world will change, and this headline will read "MAN Found Hanging from Tree" - damn the racist media that points out race on EVERY. F'ING. STORY.

The underlined part is absolutely not true. If the suspect has done something wrong and is black the media will go to great lengths to avoid using their skin color. Same case when the person is of a particular political party.

It appears to me race is only mentioned when only one particular race is involved.

Stop watching, posting, talking about it then. They're note really pushing a narrative. They're trying to make money. And ratings = revenue. And getting everyone all fired up over nonsense = ratings.

Normally I'm with you, but if you can't see why this raises eyebrows let me remind you of the last recording lynching in the U.S. - 1981, Micheal Donald.

It just hasn't been long enough to pretend like finding black men hanging from trees is just ho-hum.
