Wowza. You seem to be carrying a lot of luggage into this.
Why do you think you need to make the jump from ‘racism’ to ‘othering’? Doesn’t that qualify as ‘moving the goalposts’?
Do you ever use ‘othering’ in your normal language?
Furhermore and back to the OT: where do you meet all those people who call Russians “orcs” anyway? For me that’s like something I noticed in Ukrainian propaganda back in '22-'23 but didn’t take off at all and since fizzled out.
