Well, the context you note above doesn't at all come through in the comment to which I replied earlier. Moreover, even with that context, your initial post answers the OP's question by saying "no."
So do you thus think that the fact that some people abuse "the race card" is evidence that discrimination is indeed not on the rise? What exactly does abuse by some have to do with whether discrimination is or is not in fact on the rise? The fact that some people abuse "the race card" may seem to exaggerate the prevalence of discrimination, but in no way does that affect whether that behavior is in fact more or less frequently occurring in society.
All the best.
