It’s perfect for character assassination, as it’s a non-falsifiable statement
Meaning no one can sue for slander (or libel, whichever the print version is) because doing so would involve having to prove the statement as false
Which is why I don’t understand why any person of a protected class WOULDN’T default to the some kind of -ism as an explanation for anything negative that anyone ever says or does to them, rather than their individual personality. There is no negative consequence for being wrong, and it absolves the person of ever needing to do any self-reflection or personal growth
For example, a hypothetical, person throws their food and trash on the ground. Someome says “hey man you shouldn’t litter” person responds with “he said that because I’m [whatever] race and he’s racist”

Yep. It's collectivist thinking. There is zero personal responsibility in collectivist thinking. If you get called out for anything you can just bring up intersectional victimhood to get out of it and you're good to go. Once people internalize this it's nearly impossible to hold them accountable for anything.
