The idea being that because white people are always in some way benefiting from such a system whereas people of colour have less equal, more mixed (usually worse) experiences in the same system, it's not possible to be racist towards white people--because that involves setting up a society and institution in which their whiteness results in their oppression, which describes probably no society currently in existence.

Not an expert by any meanmns, but this is my understanding of what people mean when they say you can't be racist to whites. It's not because those people are libtards, it's just that they have a different working understanding of the term "racism" that is much more nuanced than the word the common public knows and engages with.
No, they are Libtards redefining words to downplay bigotry towards whites. For the record, affirmative action no matter how well intended is systematic oppression towards whites. Meaning that as a straight white male who lives in poverty I don't have the same chances as a person of color, or a gay, or a female would of paying for college. Plus, there are places where whites are a minority in the US and they are refused jobs because of being white. Hell, go walk onto a native reservation, see how you get treated there. And nobody really cares, or gets up in arms about it because it's not in abundance and we are redefining the word racism so we don't have to consider white people. And the saddest and most ironic part is that it's mostly white people that have completely accepted this social change.

Oh, and thinking that white people aren't oppressed in any nation at all is extremely naive. It's stupid liberals force feeding the white devil rhetoric down your throat.

I get systematic racism hardly effects white people in the US but we shouldn't redefine racism to almost justify or downplay racism towards whites because they aren't as systematically oppressed.

Edit: In fact, doing so is systematic oppression towards whites.

anyone with an iq above 110 should be able to figure out through simple reasoning that any definition of racism that seems to only apply towards certain races is inherently insufficient. but that's just wishful thinking. people are so ideologically driven that rather than arrive lazily at the easy and somewhat obvious answer they will go out of their way to arrive at the most politically expedient answer.
Did you have fun with your buddies and their Larping shields, bicycle helmets and tiki torches?
