"In 2011, the terms racist/racists/racism accounted for 0.0027% and 0.0029% of all words in The New York Times and The Washington Post, respectively. What we see over the past decade is a continual dramatic increase in usages of “racism” and its variations. Moreover, the graph shows that this increase occurred a half decade before the arrival of Donald Trump. By 2019, they would constitute 0.02% and just under 0.03% of all words published in the Times and Post—an increase of over 700% and just under 1,000%, respectively, from 2011."
The media (with help from academe and cottage industry workshops on racism hitting up churches and non-profits) expanded on the theme, although there was really no evil downward change in behavior and there were actually far fewer racial incidents and crimes.
"In 2011, just 35% of white liberals thought racism in the United States was “a big problem,” according to national polling. By 2015, this figure had ballooned to 61% and further still to 77% in 2017." Blacks’ perception of racism actually went down!
Notice the huge increase BEFORE TRUMP became president.

They aren't smart enough to do this on their own--young college journalism graduates and a bunch of media capitalists. Who are behind this?
