difference between attacking people and problems

in our modern soc-med world, a very important moral quality that you absolutely cannot, and will never be able to, buy at the local Walmart.
the main reason the 2016 campaign rhetoric was so vitriolic and insidious was that both presidential nominees didn't know, or didn't bother to learn, the difference between attacking people and problems.

White People Problems

A general term used to describe the piss poor priorities of upper/middle class citizens in developed countries, as they complain more about ridiculous over exaggerated bullshit (like marriage, where to eat, how to eat, getting their clothes messy) than actually trying to solve any of the real issues in the world like debt, starvation, corrupt governments, equality, diseases, poverty, etc.
Examples of White People Problems vs actual issues:
Average American Citizen:
"OMFG I Got grass stains on my white shoes! These are unwearable! I can't walk out in public like this!"

(He then throws the shoes away)
Homeless person who does not have shoes :"What the fuck are you bitching about"

White people issues in the royal family:
Prince: "Bloody mary, I need to find a woman, if I do not then the entire government will fall" (he then finds one and broadcasts the shit to the media)
Refugee Who escaped from a corrupt middle-eastern regime: "What the fuck are you bitching about?"

Another example is the Trump campaign.

problematic

a word used by antis and gatekeepers in fandom in relation to characters or pairings/ships that they personally do not like. often used as an excuse to attack and gaslight shippers and fans who do like the character/ship.

sometimes the excuse for calling a fictional thing "problematic" is that it's abusive, incestuous, or has a large age gap. or one of them is a villain. or two characters are enemies (or they used to be). or or none of these at all. the excuses are numerous, and many of them unfounded assertions.
Anti: "You shouldn't ship Reylo, it's problematic because Kylo Ren is a fascist and Rey is child-coded and they are cousins."
Shipper: "Uh...what?"
