I think this all started with Mr. Rogers. Remember when Mr. Rogers' theme song used to be "It's a beautiful day in the neighbrohood"? He has recently changed this song to "It's a beautiful day in THIS neighborhood". How does he get off being so highfalutin and special that it's only a beautiful day in "this" neighborhood? What neighborhood does he mean? The neighborhood of Trump-supporting whites? That guy really disappointed me that he changed so such a pompous blowhard. I'll give him credit for being a talented guy for being able to change the song after his death. But still, that's just wrong.
