BIPOC is a term that is confusing as hell.
Who is Black and not a Person of Color?
And what do these people have in common with Laplanders?

Black, indigenous, (and/or) people of color.
A bit of repetition in there, no?
From wikipedia:
"The term aims to emphasize the historic oppression of black and indigenous people, which is argued to be superlative and distinctive in U.S. history at the collective level."
Correct, but everyone who is tall, dark, and handsome is dark. The person you're replying to is asking: don't "black" and "indigenous" fall under "POC", since POC basically just means "not white"? Or at least black should fall under it.
