> all you need is one in-your-face racist encounter
does this also go for an encounter with someone who judges people based on their point of view? On their politics? On their religion, or lack thereof? On their handedness? On their hair colour, length, foot size, athletic ability or any other similar attribute?
All you need is one in-your-face accusation of being a Nazi/racist/homophobe/transphobe/ableist/bible-thumper/southpaw/ginger/proudfoot (proudfeet!)/YT/... to ruin your decade? $Deity knows many of us will have been called something like that, in 99.999(*)% of the cases without justification yet most of us just shrug it off and go on with our lives, ignoring the labeller for the non-entity she tends to be. That is how it works, at least in my experience.
