    He does have a point.

    There has even been government enquires about this. Just because something is at the expense of white men doesn’t mean it isn’t racist. It’s just as racist as if it was any other group.

      Under most definitions of racism that’s not true. Racism is usually defined as towards a minority or marginalized group. Discrimination toward the dominant group isn’t racism how it’s usually understood.

      Conservatives are trying to redefine it, but that’s not the legal or academic definition anywhere where the courts haven’t been hijacked by conservative nutcases.
