I'm saying racism against white people holds approximately* no power in the US. Being white will approximately never prevent you from getting a job, getting a promotion, holding public office, feeling safe around police, being treated fairly by teachers, etc. Because it holds no power, it is (rightly) seen as a harmless joke when someone makes a racist comment about white folks. White folks don't feel a twinge of fear when they see something like that on twitter or wherever it is. People of color do, because they know it is genuinely reflected in the sentiments and actions of their white neighbors, their white bosses, etc. * - I use the word approximately, because I'm sure there are some very limited cases where being white could be a disadvantage, but they are vastly outnumbered by the situations where being white is an advantage.
