Some of these folks are going to get a real surprise one day.

Yes, all people can and do hold some racial biases--but not all people belong to a racial group that holds the most power in society. That is the difference.
There is a significant difference whether one is the oppressor or the oppressed.

I would encourage you to read Latin American history. It's full of colonialism, the slave trade, and more recently, the mass emigration of actual many, many actual Nazis to South American countries. So it may actually make more sense for Latin America to have a white supremacy problem than for the US to have it. Indeed, the descendants of high ranking Nazis are largely Hispanic at this point.

White is a very specific connotation.
It’s the ethno-social-cultural-racial heritage of the heart of the carolingian empire, British isles, and Scandinavia
Iberia was not part of it and 1200 years later it still shows

Seriously. The Spanish Empire did a lot of horrific stuff and was worse than the British Empire.
Neither empire was benevolent and you're ignorant if you think the British Empire was less bad. History shows no empire is ever benevolent. But frankly told, I would never want to be at the tender mercies of a Chinese empire. Would you?
