Would you also like a citation for the statement "racism exists"? There are some truths that are so plainly obvious and supported by mountains of data that it's absurd to demand a citation for them.

If someone made the claim that X people are the genetically less intelligent than Y people, I could point to a dozen times and places in history where that would be considered “plainly obvious,” amongst them America itself a mere century ago. The only reason it’s not today is because we have data to the contrary.

Part of maintaining these systems of white supremacy involves firstly disbelieving that such paradigms exist, and then secondly putting the labor of "proof" on the marginalized communities and their allies.

Part of maintaining the lie of "white supremacy" is never being very concrete, just ejecting dissenters with this weird homework assignment, or if pressed, handwave everything away with vague allusions to the unfalsifiable "systemic racism."

If the rare skeptic persists at this point you can now label them a "white supremacist," having conveniently shifted the goalposts on that term so that they are now an irredeemable racist, and proceed to burn their existence to the ground and salt the earth.
