white isn’t a race it’s the social construct that means the absence of race

All "races" are social constructs, there are no biological races for our species and the way we define social races isn't even uniform across different cultures.

means the absence of race

And that is actually a profoundly racist statement that roots many portions of white supremacist ideology.

why it’s literally impossible to be racist against white people

While it's quite easy to argue that white people are in no danger of becoming ethnically prosecuted in most of western society, your statement that it's impossible to be racist against white people is got a built in logic contradiction and is therefore invalid by nature. Even without the contradiction, all it takes to take down a blanket statement like that is finding a counter-example, and that's so trivial I could find historical examples in less than five minutes.
