I wouldn't waste me breath. These claims tend to come from people who are, "I didn't get hired because I am a white male." I've been on tons of interviews and have gotten tons of rejection and never once has a company told me its because I didn't fit their demographic or was a white male. But these people will claim that. In reality, they just think they have sunshine coming out of their asses and need an excuse to justify their hurt ego.
Whether or not it's true I don't know, but your claim that it doesn't exist because they didn't tell you is ignorant.
IF they were doing this they're not going to explicitly tell you they are because it's a massive lawsuit waiting to happen.
What they are doing though is putting in laws, regulations, and culture pressure that incentivize them not to hire white males, or at least hire less of them. That's objectively true.

And you never will because it would be insane for any employer to make an admission that they discriminated against you. For one thing they’d have nothing to gain by telling you that, and, if they did tell it would make for an open and shut discrimination lawsuit.
Your account was created somewhat recently, so I'm going to guess you're a young person and you're trying to keep a bright, optimistic attitude towards life :)
That's a good thing, but you should know there's all kinds of discrimination out there, and anyone, of any race, can be a victim.
They would never say that, and it could always be "we have too many white guys already, we want some more diversity instead!" But in my experience, it only seems to be used as a tie breaker, companies will mostly go for best professional fit before they consider anything else.
