You are saying that if you think anti-white racism can exist, you don't know what racism is. That's obviously ludicrous.

There are essentially two definitions of racism at this point.

The colloquially version, which means "prejudice based on race" and a second version, which specific groups and people have advocated for, which means something like "structural oppression through cultural and governmental means". It's more complicated than just that, but it's a fairly narrow term for them.

So when one person says "there's no such thing as anti-white racism", you hear, "No one's prejudiced against white people for being white!" Obviously, that's ludicrous.

But that person is likely using the, I have no idea what to call it, "advocate definition" maybe, definition would which preclude anti-white racism from existing within that narrow definition of racism.

So it's a debate where people aren't speaking the same version of a language, convinced each other are uninformed, reactionary or stupid.
