If you want to say group X as a whole will likely experience more benefits than groups Y and Z due to their collective being larger, that is not inaccurate. If you want to say groups Y and Z will likely experience more hardships than X as a whole, that is not inaccurate. It's this insistence of attaching this very specific label that is the issue.

But the USA is unique in that white supremacy plays a key role in its foundation and economic prosperity

It's specifically a problem because white supremacy still influences the United States

White privilege borne of majority is not the problem - white privilege borne of discrimination, prejudice, and white supremacist ideals IS the problem.

Now, I'm not saying that the OP is a white supremacy issue - THAT would be ridiculous. But that's why specifically "white privilege" is a thing

because the USA is still heavily influenced by its white supremacist roots

The US is unique in this regard? What nation or empires in the past didnt hold the view their own ethnic people as being superior than people of other ethnicities and races? Supremacist ideology has influenced historical development significantly, but thats not unique to white people or the US by any means
