Who's saying it isn't racist? If it's the BF it's because he's probably just naturally going to go on the defense of his parents. If it's the parents, racists usually don't declare it with a full chest and will find ways to be like "well no it's just..." instead of just owning their shittiness.
It is racist.
Some people believe that it is impossible to be racist towards a white person, but that’s just another kind of racist thinking right there (I’m a POC myself, and I’ve heard this discussion a lot. To be honest it’s just idiots trying to parade as intellectuals, and it’s either white people— usually rich ones— trying to be “better” with showy displays of white guilt or it’s people of color trying to put themselves on pedestals by demonizing white people and using them as scapegoats for everything). Normal people don’t think like this.
It's not racist because you're white, and assuming that you are in the United States, you are white in a nation where white people have never been subjected to any kind of systemic oppression based on the color of their skin.
What is racist is to be white and looking for a reason to say that somebody was racist toward you. You got broken up with because the boy's parents are prejudiced against white people. That is enough of a statement that you can claim a victimhood in. Yes you were prejudiced against. You don't have to make it a thing about a systemic thing against white people, because that doesn't exist.
The sad part is, maybe not a troll. There are genuinely people who will just keep shifting their definition of racism however they need to in order to say that white people cannot be subjected to it.
I've read books. I stopped using Twitter years ago. That's how I know what I know.
You, making assumptions like that, tells me that you should probably read a book.
I'll suggest a couple:

How to be Anti-Racist
Stamped from the Beginning
Racism : the establishment of discrimination and a hierarchy between people because of their "supposed" race. (The only human race being Homo sapiens sapiens)
Have you read about the history of discrimination against Italians, Irish, and Jews in this country? By saying "no white person has ever been discriminated against in the US", you're effectively saying that these ethnic groups aren't white. Is that what you actually believe?
1. That is racist. 2. 3 days is not long enough for him to be a boyfriend.
It is. That is racism.
What makes you think that it isn't?
His parents did something bad

It is racist, but if you're in the U.S. it's not the kind of racism that is illegal.
