There seems to be a recursive aspect to this. Accusations of racism are used to silence (censor) voices.
From the article:
Charges of “racism,” for instance, are primarily deployed against the political opponents of upwardly-mobile, highly-educated progressive white people. Even to the point of branding prominent black or brown dissenters as race-traitors (despite the reality that, on average, blacks and Hispanics tend to be significantly more socially conservative and religious than whites).

Black people get to define our vocabulary. Internet throws a fit if someone squints their eyes and talk with a Asian accent. But go "bippity boppity mamma mia" gesticulating heavily, and everyone laughs.
