  • It gets tricky when you’re generalizing a community. He knows this, which is why it’s phrased a certain way. People of that community must have standing, that is, they must show that they were harmed, and that harm was a result of his statements.

    If a bunch of them get together and say “hey when you said that, we lost money in our businesses, or we were turned down for a job/loan/home”, or have a community org willing to sue for that reason, then it could happen. But that takes time and effort that most people don’t want to spend, so they continue to get away with it.
