Like how do they not see that argument can and will be applied to them by every other cracker with a pulse, that's the whole point of solidarity, to do away with zero-sum mentalities like that
"And the reality is America is a country with 331 million people. There's over 221 million white people in America. It's pretty selfish to choose black people over us" It's so easy to weaponize this shit
"There are 80 million Germans in our glorious Fatherland. There are only 16 million Jews. It's actually pretty selfish to choose the Jews over ourselves."
And she didn't even win the popular vote
They don't really believe it, they just say it because it's convenient. If someone turned it on them like you describe, they'd (correctly) call it racist, because that would then be the convenient thing to say.
Because they're saying that shit, and because they're redditors, I feel confident in guessing that they're not involved in any way with anti-racism, because the most basic slogan, the central tenant of civil rights activism in this country was and is that we're not free until we're all free. Black antiracists know it and Palestinians know it.
and also, worth remembering, "as a black man" is the white redditor's favorite catchphrase. They will just lie.
I never in my life wanna see that "first they came for" quote on that place ever again. Deeply unserious people
