A phrase referring to racist white people getting defensive over any discussion of racism and its effects on minorities. Often manifests itself as brushing away concerns about institutional racism and police brutality, and a persecution complex on the assumption that whites are being accused of being evil or personally responsible for racist events in the past/present AKA white guilt
One tactic is misinterpeting anti-racism concepts like "white fragility" to be anti-white, ironically proving the whole point of the term.

"Nothing screams white fragility more than raging about the word on the internet..."
"Sigh, some guy told me I was anti-white for saying institutional racism is alive and well and that we should help minorities... white fragility is a bitch"
