That racism is not soley institutional and systemic.
You're forgetting group and individual racism.
I.e. a group of black people could be racist towards whites. Or hispanics. Or whatever.
A group of Hispanics could be racist towards whites.
Just because it doesn't fit your agenda, doesn't mean you can throw out half the definition of racism.

I don't entertain centrist political agendas masquerading as "impartial and objective". The invisibility of the ''apolitical'', of appeals to ''realism'', is exactly how the normative and how hegemonic ideology operates.
No, white people don't face racism. What white people used to think racism was has long since been debunked as, *drumroll*, white neutralising propaganda. Surprise surprise, white people were wrong about what constitutes racism and if you're motivated to spend your time seeking some exceptional weird clauses for whiteness under attack the onus is on you to ask why that is motivational for you. White supremacy is the dominant global force but you find it pertinent to quibble about racism against white people, its standard centrist equivocation and refusal to acknowledge that understandings evolve, either with or without you.
