Is 'child' the new boy? The worrying new trend among white supremacists

Is calling minorities 'Child' the worrying new dog whistle among white supremacists?

More and more our research is discovering with alarming frequency that whenever "child" is used in a derogatory fashion at the end of a sentence the victim is often a person of color and the perpetrator a white man.

Is this the new code word by white supremacists to signal to other white supremacists that they are "racially aware" and to get around social media bans?

Twitter and Facebook have introduced strict rules against hate speech, however as white supremacy grows so does their jargon and they find new ways to get around these bans.

Sounds like more black people need to be alerted to this.

I agree, the time for letting racists and bigots run freely around social media must come to an end.

Especially if more white supremacists are using it.

All I know is if someone called me child, I'd probably see red and attack the racist fucker. Being called a spic is one thing, but child? No. That's downright fucking racist and I'm willing to fight Pat in order to knock out racism.

Godspeed and good luck going up against Pat "Actual Tough Guy" Tomlinson.

I saw the word "child" being used by a known racist on Twitter yesterday to infantilize and silence a POC, so I am certain it's an emerging racist term

You’re absolutely right. Card carrying white supremacist Patrick S. Tomlinson calls black ppl “child” when he cyber-lynches them, just as the KKK called blacks “boy” when they physically lynched them.

Whatever you do don’t go to the black twitter sub and search “child .”

Somebody get ahold of the 4chan autists on /pol they will love this

I was in the Klan. Grand Fagon. Can confirm- we use child as a code word for nigger in these stressful, politically correct times we're living in.
