Someone said fake hate crime happen when the demand for racism exceeds the supply.

Shouldn't we be asking WHY this demand exists in the first place?

It's almost as if there's a political party/ideology that benefits from keeping racism alive.

Almost?

Dude, political racism is just a branch of populism which has been around forever.

Behavior follows incentives.

We have incentivized victimhood.

Racism will never die as long as someone benefits from it. They are so desperate, they will fake a hate crime against themselves in order to keep racism and hatred going.

Because we have reached a pretty good place as a nation as a whole. But the race industry is indeed a political and monetary business, so the illusion of mass racism is needed to keep these people propped up and in the spotlight.
Like others have said, the demand for racism far outnumbers the supply these days.

The consequences for blaming other people of racism is celebrity and money.

It's the only way for Dems to keep African Americans on the plantation. Got to keep believing "the man" is keeping them down otherwise they may have an opportunity to make a better life for themselves.

To extend the shelf-life of the false narrative. This new-fangled, thinly disguised reparation movement needs a food source. They're elevating White Guilt to a critical mass.

Libs have a bigoted stereotype in their heads about white people that they have to reinforce and perpetuate at any cost.

Nail on the head. A good microcosm of this is seen in the behavior of some leftist biracial folks. For all the talk we hear about "white privilege," almost all such individuals I know of or hear about vociferously embrace their minority heritage and eschew their white heritage. It makes so sense until you start to realize that the real privilege in this country is that of public victimization, because, at the end of the day, Americans are actually an extremely empathetic people. It's a commendable trait, but one that many folks brazenly exploit for their own personal or political gain.

Cultural marxism is big business.

There isn't except from no-life liberals and the media is mostly manufacturing theirs. All they have to do is have US believe there -is- a demand for racism and they've won.

Which they have.

What Wtodd said. It appeals to the lowest common denominator. There are people today that still believe Jussie was attacked just as he described it and the CPD is covering it up.

Without racism, they'd all unite and attack capitalism.

Racism sucks, but it does serve a purpose by keeping society's losers divided.

Attention and $$.

The news cycles get to carry it and everyone wants to know WHAT HAPPENED WITH JUSSIE!!!! And that is from both sides - pro-Jussie and anti-Jussie people.

Look at us here, we're all eager to find out if he will be charged. Indicative of how many threads there are on his saga.

Racism, white privilege,etc is the excuse used by the left to account the the total failure for every policy they support and implement.

From education to the poverty of inner cities, it all would have worked if it wasn't for the hatred of all minorities by white men.

It's really pretty simple.

Republicans ended racism at the government level through law.

Democrats have always been racists throughout history.

Democrats being racists work to keep minorities down and because they are racist they don't believe that minorities can do things for themselves.

Democrats being racists assume everyone else views race the same way they do so they impugn republicans with racism because they themselves are racist.

There is a religious revival movement that is based around racism as one of it's core reasons for being.

It keeps people like John Lewis,Elijah Cummings, Maxine Waters and Sheila Jackson Lee employed.....It's helpful to think of them as the black overseers of the Democrat political plantation.....same wit Cory Booker and Kamala the Ugandan Woman......I would not necessarily put Obama in there like that....he was a 10 year flash in he pan, the others have made a living as race pimps
