  Peanut butter isn't racist, I'm just saying that racists like it a lot.

  The Simpson's cartoon did it first, and they didn't paraphrase[1]. [1] https://www.google.com/search?q=simpsons+fox+news+helicopter&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiU7Puzkv3eAhW-JTQIHY64DAIQsAR6BAgAEAE&biw=1920&bih=1089 https://www.google.com/search?q=simpsons+fox+news+helicopter...

  > "I'm not saying they're racist, I'm just saying that racists like them a lot" Civil Liberties organization defends due process. "I'm not saying they're rapists, I'm just saying rapists like them a lot." Fertilizer company sells ordinary fertilizer that happens to be a major component of large bombs. "I'm not saying they're terrorists, I'm just saying terrorists like them a lot." Tech company protects privacy of customers. "I'm not saying they're child pornographers, I'm just saying child pornographers like them a lot." This form of argument is obviously more incendiary than illuminating.
