Apparently they have a slang term for informing or snitching having something to do with "grass". There is some difference between US and UK attitudes regarding snitching, or at least commiting a racism is an exception to a general no snitching policy.

Yeah, but they arrested a 12 year old and then bragged about it.

It’s not possible to be racist against whites, so I’ve been told.

Correct.

Anti-Semitism, however, is a very different thing.

It's that weird distinction between societal prominence and individual power. For some reason people with extreme power as individuals (e.g. multi-millionaire celebs like Mr. Cannon) are seen as less powerful than arbitrary members of what is currently the majority group (e.g. some laid-off coal miner living in a trailer). I don't understand it.
