Yes, you are right, so I clearly stated in the definition it was a
"cache sexe" for racism.

This is easy : 
racism means there is a difference between race. If in the article we
show there is no such things as human races, how can you use a term such
anti-caucasian racism without implying first there are different races,
and as a consequence that regarding the race that are concerned the
racism is different !!! If racism are different regarding the «race» you
can compare them and say : oh anti-negro racism is worse than
anti-caucasian racism or else. 
We face a contradiction in term like military music, and it also means
we are not self consistent in our definitions.

Yes, but how should  we face a massive and biased change of the
definition.

It is secondary, first how do we handle conflicts regarding the
infringement of the editorial rules concerning objectivity.
