Why is prejudice action against minorities called "discrimination" and against white males called "reverse discrimination"? Isn't it ALL just "discrimination" and very, very WRONG?

Yes but, discrimination against whites has been authorized per affirmative action.

Shouldn't affirmative action, in theory at least, apply to everyone who is discriminated against regardless of color, creed, sexual orientation, etc.? If not, then isn't affirmative action also a form of discrimination?

Just for the record, I have NO PROBLEM with any person who is not of my race, religion, gender, etc.
