It's amazing just how little effort it takes for them to manipulate the masses. All they need to do is attach some phrase with a negative connotation, and now millions will automatically assume filibusters are some kind of racist tool.

I remember in 2013 it was this massive celebration on the left that Wendy Davis held an 11 hour filibuster to prevent a ban on abortions in Texas after 20 weeks (something that's generally a very reasonable stance even to pro choice people - that's more than half way through a typical pregnancy and more than 80% of the way to the point where a baby can be delivered with a more than two thirds survival rate).
