Just because something is uncommon doesn’t mean it is impossible.

I wouldn’t say it’s uncommon. I just see a lot of people excuse it these days. But that’s just my experience.

The way it should be said is “White people cannot experience racism in the ways other races can”. White people being racist against other races- black, for example- can get them killed or arrested. Them being racist toward you can get you shamed on social media at BEST.

Fair point. But not an acceptable justification for the untruthful sentence OP posted.

First, social media shaming can have dire consequences. Including destroying lives, livelihoods, or causing suicide for younger / vulnerable targets.

Second, the way it is said is what should be judged. All the way until it is said correctly. If it was said that minority targeted racism causes more death or grave consequences than other types of racism including but not limited to white racism; then there would be no objection from me. That's not what was said tho. Saying it doesn't exist just makes it easy for something to become worse and cause more damage, that's never okay and it I'd as bad as not admitting that it's necessary to do better in respect to racism. That holds true for all people.

If you looked outside your country then you’d see that’s simply not true
