Like one of the white supremacist talking points is they try to convince you that non-white people are just upset about slavery and shit that happened forever ago. Like literally no one gives a fuck about any of that nor has anyone given a fuck about that for ages but crackers in Hollywood keep producing slavery movies that no one watches but them to give the illusion that there's a bigger market for these kinds of films than there actually are. Then they write a bunch of fake ass thinkpieces to make idiots believe black people really care about "representation" to make you ignore the actual lived reality of old money eugenicists stripping back reforms that civil rights leaders died for less than 300 years ago. Now you can't be upset about the obvious racism occurring in the present because they've made uneducated people believe it has something to do with the past. It's all a mind game that relies entirely on no one knowing anything or talking to their contemporaries. Stereotypes literally are a Hollywood fiction, they are not real. Which goes back to a larger conversation about bots. A large amount of the population just larps being human by copying things they see in shows and films instead of being conscious of themselves and carrying themselves like sentient beings. And conservatives take advantage of this by projecting that stereotypes are the sum of culture rather than what they actually are - which are caricatures that they've manipulated into existence through social engineering. Which is not to say chattel slavery doesn't matter, it's actually one of the most important things to happen in all of history and fundamentally changed the way societies are orchestrated forever - but people's eyes glaze over when you tell them this is about geopolitics and has absolutely nothing to do with making white people feel bad as if that helps anybody.
They hyperfixate on the emotional aspects to make it seem like non-white people are irrational morons whose only issue in life is that white people don't say sorry enough, and the average bot American is so divorced from human reality that they believe it. A lot of the "liberal talking points" regarding oppression and slavery that conservatives bring up as gotchas are literally talking points that they invented themselves. They just give you this vision of some purple haired starbucks barista liberal to make it seem like they are actually debating a real person and not a stereotype of a person that they made up. The 4chan shit was sooooo insidious. They spent years cultivating psyops and spreading images of certain types of people across the internet to generate pawns in their future culture wars and we're only just now seeing the results of that. This is why becoming a "stereotype" or "statistic" can and does happen to anyone - because statistical categories were invented to encompass anyone who winds up with a certain set of experiences and how they react in response to those experiences. It's not race or gender or class in-and-of itself - it's experience that creates the caste, and then conservatives bombard you with these mental associations to ensure that you will interact with the world with these racialized frameworks in mind. Escaping the caste is very difficult without generating new experiences, and generating those new experiences will look a lot like caste elevation - because it kind of is. If the caste is experience based and the logic of eugenics dictates that certain races or undesirables are supposed to have certain types of experiences - oppressed people with conflicting experiences to those who are otherwise in the same caste as them become anomalies, which creates in-fighting and a caste that cannibalizes itself with no chance at upward mobilization as a united front.
