What's the term for when someone pretends something is Racism when it isn't?

Oh, the Drama about Star Wars The Acolyte.

The main actress is now claiming it's Racism that no one likes The Acolyte.

The show has %14 Score on Rotten Tomatoes. Less audience approval than Star Wars The Holiday Special.

And she thinks the problem is Racism instead of terrible story writing.

What do you call it when someone pretends something is Racism when it isn't?

Belonging to the Democrat Party??

Nah, for reals though. I have been struggling with the same thing. For example, I can't STAND Rachel Dolezal and I just can't stand how stupid her skin color is. Do I hate whites!?!?

It means she is racist.

LOL! That cracked me up! Spewed my coffee!

Great comedic timing, first reply and all!

At least we have a term in Germany for people who do this all the time, not only with racism but with all the current agenda things:

Berufsempörte - being outraged as a job

Liar is a term that popped up 1st for me on this. They would be liars.

Many other adjectives would be accurate too like Racist.

There are people out there, Al Sharpton is the first to mind, that make a living screaming Racist ! at every little thing. It's how they excuse their own shortcomings and play on the guilt of the gullible. And let's face it, it pays pretty damn well.

There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.

Victim mentality...

I knocked this one around a little and came up with "faux-racism" to run a search on. Man, that is tricky, running a search on any word that contains racism. I tried fauxracism first, and Bing returned with counter results like micro-aggression, systemic racism, and discrimination due to sexual preference mostly. The hyphenated version brought up the same results, however, I did find this . . .

How faux-racism changed Salisbury University forever When an academic institution insulated from media scrutiny invokes racism that wasn't racism to drive foundational change, there really is a systemic issue: deception.

Had no idea what this could be and then i startpaged it. And really found this here:
Urban Dictionary - Farfegnugen

And this here:
Etymology
Unadapted borrowing from German Fahrvergnügen, from fahren (“to drive”) +‎ Vergnügen (“pleasure”); popularised in the USA by Volkswagen advertisements in the 1990s.
Wiktionary - Fahrvergnügen

I've never heard that word before, no one here has ever used it or would ever use it, it's completely made up by some marketing nut at VW/Audi. It´s not even in the Duden where you can find really every german term/word, even if it´s denglish-slang which was adopted last year.

Since 20 minutes i am making up sentences using that term and i can´t stop laughing because it sounds so stupid, like:

Heute auf der Autobahn hatte ich völligstes Fahrvergnügen (Today on the highway I had complete driving pleasure)... If you said that here, you would get looks that would make you doubt your own mental state

You really never stop learning and if you can laugh at the same time, all the better!

Everything about the Acolyte is dumb.

The whole plot is that you can't kill a Jedi with a weapon... So you need someone else to do it. An Acolyte.

Yet, OB1 was killed by Vader's weapon. Qui Gon was killed by Darth Mauls lightsaber. Palpatine killed several Jedi with his lightsaber when they came to arrest him. The clone troopers killed off the whole Jedi order with weapons during order 66. And bug people with zap guns killed a bunch of Jedi in the battle of Geonosis.

This show is absurd. Yet if you don't like it you are a bigot.

I think the term is gaslighting.

a reply to: DerBeobachter2

Yeah. It's a made up word they used in American ads for VW.

Nothing.......they can't be wrong because everything is racist.

I stopped watching after season one of The Mandalorian.

Now I hear about lesbian space witches?

Which, by the way, is an excellent name for a band.

a reply to: GotterDameron23

I dont follow star wars so I dont even know what race this person is but i do know those star wars mega fans are rabid and they don't seem to like much of what's going on with it at all.

So its probably not racism. The storyline probably just sucks and the fans who would watch it dont like it for that reason.
