I consider among these, the kind of people who, when they see a Black name trending on social media, being harassed or disapproved of for something, they join in on the harassment and disapproval, using that as an excuse to express their anti-Blackness.
Tumblr for example is rife with closet racists who express their anti-Blackness through how they engage in fandom, (how they talk about Black characters on TV and in movies, harassment of Black actors, for example) ,and how they treat Black fans.
