Is it official?

So is "Infested" now officially a racist word? I'm really having trouble keeping track of this growing list of racist words?

It's obviously not the word itself but how it's used.

@SW-User You mean like the mayor of Baltimore used it in 2015 when referring to the rat infestation? Or when Obama called the rioting looters, Thugs in the riots?

@JT123 Like, if a person says, this town is becoming infested with [insert name of race] that's obviously what I am referring to. Did I really just have to explain that?
