As for the word "picnic"...
... south Florida politician said that the word picnic shouldn’t be used to describe an annual gathering of city employees.
Fort Lauderdale City Commissioner Robert McKinzie said the word has racist origins, referring to hangings of African Americans.
"It is a very racially insensitive word if you look at it," he said during a Feb. 19 commission meeting.

So too then the word "SPIKE"!!!
When the MSM say "COVID cases "spike"... this is the image that comes to mind... a word to describe black hairdos... RACIST!!!
