Metaracism
Using the word 'racist' as a slur towards someone, despite the recipient not having declared himself to be a racist by words or actions. Commonly used against white people.
Normal person: I don't believe large-scale immigration from developing countries is an appropriate measure to counter the low birth rates in the developed world. Immigrants get old too.
Metaracist: Racist!! All migration is great migration!
NP: Using immigration as a tool to change demographics is just going to create friction. When the native population doesn't have as many babies as you'd like, you can't fill that gap with immigrants and expect the native population not to react negatively.
MR: I'm going to contact your employer and get you fired, bigot!
NP: The thing is, I am self-employed, and---
MR: Reeeeee!! Racist!!
NP: Well, this just seems to be metaracism, really.
