Shaun King is a jackass, but yes, this stuff is really happening. Most of it, anyway. The fact that some people are selfishly making up stories for attention - or worse, think lying about them is justified because "Trump is just so terrible" - is arguably worse than people actually engaging in acts of hate. Many ordinary people will want to convince themselves that this stuff isn't really happening, and it's a lot easier if you can't easily tell what's real and what's not.
