This is really hard because there are so many claims done in bad faith.
For example, comparing Michelle Obama to a chimpanzee is incredibly racist, but people will claim it's not, and will claim it's no different than comparing Marjorie Taylor Greene to a neanderthal. But this is entirely a bad faith claim, since the comparison of black people to primates has been a racist trope that spans decades or even centuries.
