I see racism against white people online, not much IRL because I live in a largely homogenous country with a small percentage of white population. Although, racism is very much prevalent here, it's often amongst people of the same racial group. Racism against ANY group is dumb. I've seen some anonymous users post racist things about white people, and I call them out for it. I'm not white, but I'm certainly not going to condone racism against any racial group.
I usually respond with: "Fuck You, Moron. It's 2022, Racism Is Not Cool."

Mmm... both on here and in real life? to be honest I think racism towards white people is very much more isolated to online ( TYPICALLY ) there are a lot of ways that racism can be shown, that is true, but the thing is... white people are likely to be a lot less aware of such behaviour happening in person if it is subtle, whereas online you read the message and get an idea of the intent.
In social gatherings, if a white person is excluded from a conversation or group of people because they are not of the same colour, that would be a immediate act of racism but if the person was young they may just think that those people did not want to talk with them as they don't share similar interests, it is not okay, it is still racist. It would not be a problem if they greeted each other in a friendly manner and then parted ways, but the manner of pushing a person of different colour out of the group away is what makes it a problem.
Racism still lingers in ways, but a lot of the time people tend to misappropriate the words for the person just being ignorant of their ethnic background so they are usually flexible, it would be better to talk with someone for a while and then asking them in a way of interest of their ethnic background, this would not be a rude question, you are showing polite interest on the subject.
Every day of my life here. We have a large Hispanic and Native American population, and a lot of them are straight up racist white-people haters but they still want free shit from us though. Not really much to do other than call it out; loudly tell a person they're acting like a racist piece of shit. But that's all.
Unfortunately I've seen it happen to my dad before. He was going to go to a house to help out with yard work and one of the people didn't allow him there because he is white (they specifically said that). It pissed me off (im half white half hispanic) but my dad left anyway we didn't feel like starting some sort of useless beef with someone
