Fox News hosts joined in the pile-on, insisting that no way was America a racist country and that it was, in fact, the “least racist country in the world.”

Pardon an education lacking in details, but I do recall an intramural debate or something like that called the American Civil War. I also once heard the South argued on the side of slavery but got really, really mad and shot up the place to "preserve our way of life." As in, you know, white supremacists owning human slaves. But I could be all wrong about this. Sometimes I don't remember things very well.

Sort of like FOX and white supremacists of the GOP ilk. On purpose.

PS" But as conservatives once understood, ideas have consequences; and poisonous rhetoric can have deadly results."

It's awful to say, but it sure looks like deadly white racial violence is the point. It is the hoped for outcome I think it's even dog whistled in the GOP corporate mission statement.
