I'd say it falls in the same vein as saying asian or middle eastern culture. Yes, it's overly broad and does ultimately conflate different cultures under a singular banner, but I'm also not going to say it's a deliberate fraud so much as it's an easier catch-all term than being overly specific.
Also, if the whole world and every other race was seemingly against the "Asian" grouping, and schools were even teaching Asians to hate themselves, it would make sense to embrace the identity. Sure, don't let it erase the sub-identities, but if your enemies have grouped you together for extermination, maybe group together to fight against against it too.
Pretty sure the whole concept of "white" culture is a deliberate fraud to try and erase individual northern cultural identities.

There in lies the fraud. Create a crisis in which the provided solution is to abandon one's own identity.
You can be multiple things at once.
