23. Can I get a list of racist incidents that we also should have ignored?

Surely some must come to mind. And because I do think there's an ideological component, could you limit this list you obviously have to targets who were not Jewish?

What racist incidents in the past, say, year have you also felt we needed to ignore?

As a gay man, if someone told me I was paying too much attention to a homophobic incident where the bigot then doubled down in a newspaper, I'd be giving that person the dirtiest of side-eyes.
