The problem with calling anyone racist these days is that the word is like a blank space in a mad lib. Fill it in however you like. It can mean whatever you want it to mean. This is by design, of course. It is easier to weaponize the &#8220;racism&#8221; label if you don’t have to worry about using it correctly. And that is what makes the latest publicity stunt from Yelp so disturbing. 
Yelp has <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/owner-yelp-is-bad-for-small-business-2013-4">long been hated</a> by some small business owners who complain that negative reviews on the site can have a significant impact on their business despite being potentially inaccurate or malicious. A recent documentary called &#8220;<a href="https://slate.com/technology/2019/06/billion-dollar-bully-documentary-yelp.html">Billion Dollar Bully</a>&#8221; claims that Yelp essentially extorts smaller companies, demanding that they buy advertising in exchange for minimizing negative reviews. Yelp denies the charge and even bought the <a href="http://BillionDollarBully.com">BillionDollarBully.com</a> domain name and redirected it to a page on its site clarifying that it does not extort small businesses. You can judge for yourself whether buying the domain name of a documentary that accuses you of dishonest tactics is itself a dishonest tactic.
