‘Whiteness’ is a label assigned by society, not self-identity. I think race is absolute nonsense and also don’t identify as black nor white, that doesn’t stop people assigning it to me when they see me outside. And if someone says they want to kill people based off of their own interpretation of white or black, our self-identity or lack of one means nothing.
Like you, the comment itself doesn’t insult me because it’s not about a group I identify as, but the normalization of conditional racism here absolutely does concerm me.
