One of the most hilarious terms that some people use is "reverse racism".
That term just doesn't make any sense. What is "reverse racism"? What
people *mean* by that, and I'm not kidding a bit here, is when a white
person is the victim and a non-white person is the perpretrator. As if
regular plain "racism" was only when a white person is prejudiced or
discriminates a non-white person due to his ethnicity. Just the existence
of that term and the meaning it's used with is even more telling, IMO.
