Simple in-group preference is the core of that. It is something we all have in common, no matter how much training it is buried under (which I say with white liberals in mind). Because different races are so very different, that common trait serves as the foundation for different systems from group to group.
Not true. Their insistence that this is the case is only an expression of in-group preference. Their value system leads to them valuing individual social virtue above group survival and so they express superiority differently.
They think tolerance is grace and that a superior being should display traits of superior quality. Their only motive to signal virtue is to tell others, "see, I treat the lowly with grace, because I am great." This is also why they want to be seen offering only understanding and forgiveness to people of other races who fail to reciprocate their values- it amplifies their own feeling of superiority, since they succeeded the standard- hopefully in sight of others- where the nonwhite person failed, theirby validating their own station of high grace.
From their perspective it is the white racists that threaten their superiority, not entirely via in-group competition for dominance, but because the people who value group survival over social virtue undermines any status of superiority that is determined by social virtue.
At the most basic level this is not even a conscious thought process. It is the context from which their conscious thought process operates. Once it is trained in, the pursuit of superiority by social virtue is no more consciously deliberate than their personal, private, socially taboo kneejerk reaction to the body odor of an ethnically african person (which is trained in at a deeper level, being from birth, in the case of anyone who grew up in a house without africans in it).

No we don't all have that. White people have a negative in-group opinion.
