"Racism" has been tranformed into the all purpose political attack word.

In practice, it means whatever the attacker wants it to mean, if they can convince a few leftist the attack promotes "woke" culture.

`When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, `it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less.' `The question is,' said Alice, `whether you can make words mean so many different things.' `The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, `which is to be master -- that's all.'

Likewise "sexism", "antisemitism", "homophobia", "islamophobia", "misogyny", and probably a few others that don't come to mind at the moment.
