Yes, it might be relevant to you but not the overall importance..
I think you're confusing freaking out with opposing..
You can't water down "legitimate grievances" by pointing out what's acceptable to say and what's not..
Listen le roi, many black folks could care less about another groups sympathy towards our people or our issues. We want equal rights under the law and you can keep the sympathy...
If you cared about "equal rights under the law" and not about the collateral issues then congratulations: You actually do have equality under the law on account of your race.
The mechanisms exist to combat discrimination where it legitimately arises. It's robust, it's active and it works.
But, the rest of what makes the news these days is 90% "feelings" and "sympathy." Attempts to address disparities through the prism of "white racism"... and wondering why for decades nothing changes.
We already see the progression of the narrative over the past 10 years alone by the words you use:
"Racism --> White Privilege --> White Supremacy"
Each one more obfuscated a concept than the last, completely ripped from original and logical definitions to support racialized agendas.
What difference does it make if a group prefers to be called one thing over another? It poses no hardship for people to respect that and identify people the way they wish to be identified. Going out of your way to not do so seems petty and deliberately hateful. What's the point if not meant to be disrespectful?
As compared to how every other country in the world was founded?
Do people even know that the world existed before 1492? That history didn't start or stop with the colonization of the United States?
The dangers of Eurocentric education right here on display, folks!
I would just love to see this fantasy world these race hustlers live in. Not long ago it was a very accepted idea that white people were completely superior. So much so that the act of bring slaves here to live with us was considered doing them a favor that they could actually be around here.
Of course there was white supremacy. But it existed wherever there were white people. When our white ancestors saw a beautiful piece of land like the North American Continent they felt it was for them to take and for the natives to keep.
Look at nature, where in nature today is it not that way? Animals don't sit around worrying that they offended another animal. They do what nature intended for them to do.
We have invented this guilt. Again, white people who invent pretty much everything.

Almost every day. Thousands of inventions. People tell me what they want and I build it. I come from a long line of inventors. Mercedes Benz, BMW, Audi, VW and the US space program. Just stuff like that.
Doesn't need to be born in Africa. It's the correct term, and you WILL use it despite your protestations.

It's the oldest trick in the book, I'm just not sure any group of people has ever fallen for it this badly.
"The blacks."
