Since lynching doesn’t just mean hanging someone, look for its definition to be greatly expanded, maybe even to include making someone feel bad.
Out of the many things disturbing about this entire Jussie-Kamala production is the fact that everything to the dems is distilled into "how does this help me get votes?". They've already made the word racism into a catchall to use when someone disagrees with you...
or even someone just showing up in front of a camera, claiming to feel bad and asking for the media to go out and find the unnamed white person who made them feel bad
I’m pretty sure lynching does historically mean hanging, although a report that claims there have been 5 lynchins in the past 10 years, 3 of them were people being run over by cars, one was a break-in shooting, and one was a suicide by hanging that the family insists was a lynching by the friends of the white woman the guy was dating.
Interestingly, while the definition doesn’t limit the death to “hanging”, it generally references a mob of people doing the deed.
