When did patriotism become racism?

In the sixties it was the hair; now it's the hat. Approved headgear, meaning NOT "Make America Great Again" caps, must be anti-American! Only those shown here are accepted and declared righteous.

NBC/ Savannah Guthrie approved.
Bob Weir "It's become axiomatic in our country that anyone who disagrees with a minority group member, or a left-wing radical, will be branded a racist.  You believe we need a wall on our southern border to stem the flow of dangerous drugs and human-trafficking?  You must be a racist!  You say Al Sharpton is a tax-evading demagogue?  You're a racist!  (The fact that he owes millions to the IRS doesn't matter.  He's black, hence you can't criticize
him without being charged with racism.)  In fact, it's become an egregious act of racism for anyone to support President Trump, the wall on the southern border, or any other issue that promotes American values.

"When did it become a racist act to wear a hat that reads, "Make America Great Again"?  Keep in mind: it doesn't matter how many patriotic blacks wear MAGA hats, or how many go public with their support of President Trump.  As far as the left is concerned, those blacks are "Uncle Toms," or traitors to the left-wing strategy of undermining the values of our country.

"Those who engage in such ludicrous accusations undoubtedly feel that it's their trump card (no pun) to use whenever they're losing an argument." . . .

 

. . .  "A real problem with the abundance of spurious racist allegations is that legitimate claims may soon be viewed as simply more mendacious attempts to win disputes with non-whites.  I think it's a truism that all decent people will come to the defense of those being victimized by bigots.  But what happens when the line between actual and feigned bigotry becomes blurred?  It's been my experience that most educated, successful, self-respecting minorities didn't get where they are by using their skin pigmentation to extort their way up the ladder of success.  Sadly, we don't hear nearly as much from them as we do from the race-baiters who continue to see it as the only way to be relevant."
