I think it's silly that people throw the "racist/racism" word around just because they are offended by something that has some racial references.

True and I never said it was, but you act as if most people should adhere to your definition or they don't understand racism. There are multiple academic definitions but in general, in academia, racism is though of along power structures and only the majority can be considered "racist"
In society, it isn't seen the same way and racism is something that also happens at the individual level no matter the race of the racist.
