We can’t say the word racism has lost all meaning, and then make a statement like this.

Did you read beyond the title?

The “key concept” from How to Be an Antiracist is that to remedy the underrepresentation of minority groups, you need to engage in discrimination in the opposite direction — i.e., discriminate against whites.

I get the irony. But a lot of people here say the word racist has been abused so much it’s lost its meaning. But it’s statements like above that contradict that.
