The use of graffiti is a coded message to remind people of crime and urban decay and has been used in racist messaging against Black people in the past.
Practically everything Black America holds up as their "culture" is overrun with moral rot.

and a politician caricatured as a monkey has an obvious intellectual policy context.

I no more visualize a racial connotation associated with a George Bush monkey face then I do Obama. Both of the messages are identical. Neither is racist in my view. Because I make no stereotypic associations racially in either case. You do. That's your own personal problem, and it appears to be a fairly big one. Do some self introspection.
No, that still doesn’t hold together. A monkey caricature of George Bush may be an insult about intelligence because there is no long racial history in America of comparing white presidents to apes to deny their humanity. With Obama, that history exists whether you personally choose to acknowledge it or not.
That’s the part you keep trying to sand off.
You’re pretending all symbols mean the same thing in every context. They don’t. A rope is just a rope until it’s tied into a noose and hung from a tree. A white hood is just fabric until history walks into the room. Context is not “my personal problem.” Context is how meaning works.
And this little trick of yours, “If you recognize racism, you must be the racist,” is not introspection. It’s evasion in a cheap suit. I don’t have to believe the stereotype to recognize that racists have used it. I don’t have to endorse the slur to know what the slur means.
So no, I’m not “visualizing racial connotation.” I’m recognizing historical baggage. You’re the one pretending the baggage isn’t there because admitting it would make Trump’s little meme look exactly as ugly as it was.

No one's going to care about this.
Trump needs to hear about this kind of thing only from MAGA otherwise, it's just look how libs are melting now.
Anyways, this is stupid to get your jimmy's rustled over. It's not like Obama's don't deserve this for their race-baiting.

Why are you pretending he’s being wronged in this thread?
He’s not. He’s bleeding all over the thread about a pretty tame jab from a professional troll.

Again, you cannot hold simian imagery as fair game in one instance, and off-limits in another.
That dog don't hunt.
Sorry.
Your perception of a differential speaks to your personal association of caricature to physical components of race. I find that disturbing. I think when you really consider it, you will too. Take a long look in the mirror who you are.
