I never liked the terms BIPOC or BAME (speaking as one, just in case ofc) mostly because of how it kind of implies we’re secondary. Beyond the contexts of US/europe
I see where you come from, but they were indeed created to give visibility for those minorities in those context. Someone can be a US citizen and a POC, or a German and a POC at the same time, they are not exclusives. In those context the those names make sense.
Of course outside of those context the words don’t really make sense.

Yeah that’s fair, thanks.
