Why do you think racism against white people is ignored in this country?

Smug, self-righteous, and willful ignorance is the reason. The first problem is those that take this perspective fail to understand that racism, discrimination and stereotypes about whites (just like stereotypes about anyone) perpetuate the status hierarchies we all seek to overcome.

The second problem is that those who practice racism, discrimination and stereotypes against whites do so covertly with the goal of 'getting even' or revenge for perceived injustices in the past. Some political figures even pander to this narrative for votes.

Furthermore, this behavior is plain unjust. Two wrongs don't make one right. It just perpetuates hatred and ensures it continues into the next generation. Let's not forget, justice is about balance - revenge is about making oneself feel better.
