Some are saying it though and I get that “white privileged males” may
At times be oblivious to or not sensitive to racism when it occurs (or indeed are racist).
But by the same token, there are some who see racism in absolutely everything and at present we seem to be moving towards a situation where if such people say something is racist then it is taken to be so without any objective assessment of whether it’s the case. I think that’s quite dangerous as well.
