24. Especially when its white republicans doing it!
I've had my own experiences of being called a racist for opposing Banfield's attempt to rewrite California laws to dumb down our process for allowing foreign veterinarians to be able to practice here. Their aim to change the law is so that they can get compliant labor for their corporate vet clinics because we veterinarians don't want to work for a corporation who tells you exactly how you may practice, but they called us racist when we opposed this.

I went on a rant and sent that out to all the legislators deciding this issue - how dare they accuse me of racism when they refuse to place clinics in the very minority districts in California that they claim they serve. They dropped that racism charge like a hot potato.There's always a way to turn the racism charge on its head when its coming from a republican or corporation because you can bet that its in fact the accusor who is the real racist.
