Indeed, it is an unfortunate trend.

It is in part a pushback against what some see as being overly politically correct, in part due to a resurgence in "Alt-right" groups (Fascists by a different name), and in part thanks to a president who is actively and possibly deliberately once again normalizing racist speech.

I really wish we could get off our arse and differentiate between hate speech and someone's stated opinion. The former is a call to action, destined to cause harm to others, and should be considered in the same vein as yelling "Fire" in a crowded building.
