"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

Racial chauvinism is a remnant of cannibalism and needs to be exterminated, as our dear comrade once wrote.
And while it is understandable for historically and acutely oppressed people to feel hate or bias against their oppressor, conquering our own biases and blind spots is our challenge as marxists.
A white disabled person will still be oppressed, white women are being oppressed, the irish, who are white, have been brutally oppressed and massacred by britain.
There is nothing to gain from generalizing and the argument that generalizing poc has a different impact than that of white people does not hold weight on its own. Of course poc are more oppressed than white people, but a black man will on average be less oppressed than a black woman, etc. But as you see, this only drives the working class against each other. It is class struggle first and foremost and minority struggle alongside it, not before.
