It was different because you cannot mock a black, Marxist, turd w/o racism being your prime motive.
Stirring up black-white antagonism has been one of the main stratagems in the communist playbook since day one. I remember in the early 1950s visiting the home of one of the boys I played sand lot baseball with. They had copies of the People’s World (CPUSA west coast newspaper) and their sports page was raging about black players not being allowed to play on white baseball teams (minor or major league). As a youngster, I only felt angry about the strident language used against my favorite teams. I had two or three black friends in school and my parents were anything but bigots, so I was clueless about the racial prejudice issue. It was a couple of years later that I found out that Mrs. Johnson was a communist.
