I should make a bot that trawls HN for the phrases "anti-white racism" and "reverse racism" and replies with the following: "When people say that reverse racism (AKA anti-white racism) does not exist, they are using the word 'racism' to mean 'a socioeconomic power structure that systematically disadvantages people of a particular race'. By this definition of racism, they are absolutely correct. There is no systematic oppression or disenfranchisement of white people in America. However, many people (especially those less familiar with modern feminist discourse) understand the word 'racism' to mean 'an instance of a person or group treating another person or group poorly because of their race'. By this definition, anti-white racism does exist. White people are certainly sometimes treated poorly because of their whiteness. Arguments over the existence of 'reverse racism' almost always occur between people who do not agree on the definition of the word 'racism'. Before you respond to this post about reverse racism, please consider the possibility that the person to whom you are responding is neither crazy nor stupid. Instead, they may simply be using a different definition of 'racism' than the one to which you subscribe. If you interpret their post with a different definition of 'racism' than your own, do you suddenly find it to be much more reasonable? If so, you may have been missing the point. It is always best to agree upon shared terminology before engaging in debate."
