Racebaiting

A view-grabbing tactic and manipulative move that many popular news networks (such as CNN) thrive off nowadays due to the dying off television and the uprising of everything going digital. It is the use of one-sided story-telling from movements like #blm and feminism that display them crying over racism in which happens to be untrue, and there was no racism whatsoever, but social justice warriors use it like any other word so casually. But they won't tell you that, and because many people are too lazy to research nowadays, many people are lead to believe these false claims be true. Which brew up anger and cause race wars.

Guy 1: "I hate how all these news channels keep racebaiting. It's so fucked up."

Guy 2 (in response): "I know right? This honestly needs to stop."
