During slave revolts in America, slave owners said they’re fighting sub humans
Native Americans fought back, colonizers said they’re victims fighting savages
Apartheid South Africa said they’re fighting terrorists
Israeli settlers say they’re victims fighting human animals
Same evil, same motives, same excuses, different times

That’s true for basically any conflict ever.

You may have missed the point of the tweet.
The selection of conflicts chosen in this tweet make it look like white supremacy is the uniting factor, when the actual uniting factor is ethnic conflict.
IMO: I would disagree; it still goes back to white supremacy. We can see it in Palestine, where the zionists share the same religion with some Palestinians, but they do not share the same skin color, so they are treated as second-class citizens even in Israel.
No, if white supremacy were the uniting factor, that would imply that non-white people would not demonize and mistreat their enemy. That is exactly why this tweet is misleading. Just look at what the Japanese did to the Chinese during WW1 and WW2. Declaring their enemy less than is a human, not a white trait
