What’s with this “reverse racism” BS?

I always see people use it when someone’s calling them out for being racist against white people. “Reverse racism” isn’t even a thing! White people are human too and can experience racism like anyone else. If you disagree, then you’re a racist and like all racists, you’re only denying it to avoid acknowledging you’re a garbage human being. If you speak out against white people who are racist against people of color and then defend people of color being racist against white people with that “reverse racism” crap, you’re just being hypocritical. Anyone and everyone can experience racism and all racism is bad. Or none of it is! Pick one.

My mom is white. My Dad is Aboriginal. We moved to a town on the Southern Coast of Australia when I was 6. Just a few months after a 10 year old boy had been raped by a group of Dark skinned tourists, then every white man with a gun came to town and started shooting anybody of darker skin tone to them.
So the town was racially charged when my family got there. We had a lot of visitors come round when Dad was living with us but when he left 6 years later not a sign of these family friends did we see.
Amidst this back drop and a lot more I wont add I learnt that people are basically A$$holes. Though many of them cloak it under the veil of racism because they don't know any better and don't want to either.
