Maybe the objection is to the more jackasstic extremists, you know, the ones who actually do legit hate white people and react to their people's history of racist oppression by becoming entitled, but all the way insisting that they can't be racist because only the people with actual power can be racist and they only want that level of power really, really, bad (which is the problem with applying the power plus prejudice definition of systemic racism to individual ideas); people like this:
But if that's the case, well, then anti-racism isn't the problem, because all those types are doing is whining on social media (even if it is really fucking loud) and, odds are, the worst they're going to do is make your eyes roll so far back into your head you can probably see your own skull. That doesn't mean the underlying idea of anti-racism isn't a good one; just that some people are idiots about it.
