It's missing the point to read "white queers are always going to be white before they're queer" as being a statement about white people.

It's obviously just Nazi degeneracy bullshit.

It's a dismissal of queerness itself (regardless of the race of the queer person) as being inherently an issue of an imagined rich, white, elite that's disconnected from "blood and soil".

That's why these bigots don't actually care if "white trans women" are actually white.

And all of this is obviously bad faith.

It is obviously not reasonable to treat white trans women as if the average white person represents them.

And that is especially true when many of the "white trans women" these people are always going after are not actually white.

And finally, white queer people obviously understand that they can't convince white conservatives to be allies.

Most of the people killing white queer people are white conservatives.

Fourth: if we're talking electoralism, then LGBT people voted overwhelmingly for Harris.

LGBT people and Black people are tied at 86% for the two most pro-Harris groups in the country.

I am fairly certain that it's mathmatically impossible for white queer people to have voted more in line with other white people, vs other queer people.

The racist backlash to Obama's presidency is especially frustrating, because Obama didn't really advance civil rights for Black people.

Black people are in a worse position now, because white people imagined an advancement of Black people that didn't actually exist.

The same is happening to trans people now.

Trans people are losing long-held civil rights because cis people saw a magazine cover and made up conspiracy theories about it.

Third: "Right as white trans people actually started gaining ground."

What?

Are you talking about Laverne Cox being on a magazine cover? Because that doesn't actually help anybody.

Most of what's happened in recent years is trans people losing the civil rights that they'd had for decades.

In my experience, trans women are less likely to be aligned with assimilationist queer politics and so less likely to care about gay marriage.

And gay marriage is sort of orthogonal to trans rights.

Second: Gay marriage is great, but it's not some special right that white queers get.

Loving v. Virginia was decided in 1959.

Aside from some fairly fringe cases with disabled people, everybody else could already get married when Obergefell was decided.

And Obergefell benefits all queer people. It's not a whites-only supreme court decision.

I know this sounds too obvious to be meaningful, but there are vanishingly few white supremacists who are not extremely transphobic.

The inverse (transphobes who are not white supremacists) are almost certainly more common.
