What happens when your brain is so rotted by an obsession with race and racism that you see it in every mundane interaction?

You end up accusing Little Leaguers of racism for just having fun with their teammates.
The latest racism non-troversy comes from the Little League World Series. During a game between the Baltimore Orioles and Boston Red Sox, ESPN cut away to Little League players from the Midwest team putting some white fuzz in the hair of one of their teammates. Naturally, this sent the brain-dead liberals in establishment media into a furor.
Why? Because the player in question was black. Therefore, there must be some racial component to this interaction!
Our genius anti-racist liberal class then determined that the white fuzz must have been cotton and that the players were racially bullying their teammate. NBC News, CBS Sports, and HuffPost all called it cotton. The Washington Post called it “cotton-like.” Deadspin, the gutter where journalism and decency go to die, continued calling it cotton even after it was explained what had happened, and insisted that the LLWS doesn’t care about black people and all those white Little Leaguers are evil little racists.
As it turns out, the white fuzz was stuffing from a stuffed animal. Several players had it in their hair — not just the black player ESPN showed.. Players were doing this to imitate a player from Hawaii, who has a white mohawk.
Waiting for context is too much to ask in our social media age, apparently.

But even without that context, doesn’t anything seem more reasonable than to jump to the conclusion that players put cotton in the hair of their black teammate to racially antagonize him?
This is your brain on race-obsession. A man yells something out at a baseball game? Must be the N-word — not the name of the mascot whose attention he was trying to get. The “OK” hand gesture, used by everyone from AOC to Barack Obama? A white power symbol — not a way of signifying the number three, an actual "okay," or someone playing the “circle game.” Nope — everything is racist, because when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
Their preferred “anti-racist” obsession cannot brook the idea of children being children. Even innocent children must be hounded and shamed for the borderline-willful ignorance of low-IQ adults in the media, who in any just world would be the ones shamed and ignored.
The supply of racism in the U.S. is far lower than the demand for it by activists and media, so they must manufacture racial incidents where none exist. And they don’t care who they have to smear or shame to do so, even if they are 12-year-olds having fun at a baseball game. It could be your kid next.
