Millions of black people in America disagree that it's OK to be white.
It's just that.
It's not OK to be white.
Would you want to be around people like that? Who believe it's not OK to be what you are? Would black people want to be around people who think it's not OK to be black? Is such a withdrawal rational?
Everyone is asserting that it is. And they're right.

Would you want to be around people like that?
The statement "It's OK to be white" was taken up by neo-nazis (and 4chan) to bait the left. It is associated with the KKK and David Duke. It is associated with swastikas carved into pumpkins.
The phrase has a recent history that if people are aware of, they would disagree with the statement. Lots of statements are like that. "Heil Hitler" is offensive because we know who Hilter was.
Would you want to be around people like that? Who believe it's not OK to be what you are?
You're conflating disagreeing with the statement, which is likely about the recent history of the statement, and an anti-white hate. They're not the same. The statement is loaded.
Would black people want to be around people who think it's not OK to be black?
Being around isn't the opposite of "get the hell away from ... just the the fuck away, because there's no fixing this". The latter reads a lot more like advocating apartheid.

It's OK to be white. If you disagree, you're a racist and a member of a hate group. It is foolish to stay around a hate group that targets you because of your skin color.

The phrase is more loaded than that. Some people will recognise it as a slogan of the white supremacist movement.

Is it OK to be white?
For a lot of people, it's not. They tell us, all the time, quite openly and don't get banned for it. It's a hate movement, and who would stick around with people who hate you?

As it turns out, the people telling us It's OK to be white is evil are the ADL.
Jews.
There it is again. Jews leading others in anti-white hate. What a surprise.
