I would agree with that, but the meme is essentially implying that white people's opinions don't matter.
This is the exact type of stuff that fuels more racism on the right.
How do you expect to fix inequality by treating people unequally.

implying that white people’s opinions don’t matter

I'm a white person and I definitely did not read that into it. What it literally says is that if you play devil's advocate for your own amusement, on topics that you don't have any stake in, without any intention of learning, then you're behaving insincerely. And that's bad.

If you remove race from the meme and your last comment, we are in complete agreement.
