The left has made up the idea of "reverse racism" because they have changed the meaning of racism itself. To them, it is no longer simply discrimination on the basis of race. It is racial discrimination within their Marxist power dynamics.
Racism, according to leftists, is a person of one race with "privilege" discriminating against a person of another race that is "oppressed". It is directional. A person of privilege cannot be the victim of racism.
"Reverse racism" then is where the privileged are the victims of racism. However, leftists do not acknowledge that victimization of the privileged is actually possible.
The way we laugh at men who pretend to be women is the same way they see people who claim to be victims of reverse racism.
You are right.
