anybody can be racist against any skin color. Racism is more likely to occur in cultures that have narratives that make the racists feel completely justified and in the moral right. It's also more likely to occur when it's rebranded under a more minor or acceptable name.

We obviously need a new word for the top down version of racism. Prejudice has nothing to do with ethnic group or skin color, nor does racism have to do with the powerful oppressing the powerless. Was the Stalinist regime racist against whites? Or the Maoists against Chinese?

If most people use it according to the dictionary definition, how do you account for the proliferation of the term “reverse racism”? Ppl who use the strict dictionary definition are usually interested in racism as a personal morality, which is the least interesting type.

At the very least, if you are using it that way, it’s good to clarify, otherwise you’d be willfully misleading or muddling a convo about something that’s already high voltage.
