The primary contradiction in the Amerikan settler colony is colonialism, which is indeed white supremacy. If capitalism disappeared today there would still be white supremacy, hence why building socialism through decolonizing is the best option.
I don’t actually think the original comment was saying you can only get rid of white supremacy via capitalism, I think they were saying bringing socialism won’t automatically end white supremacy.
Definitely IMO. But it’s certainly not feasible in the context of successful settler-states like the US/Canada/Australia, which have already committed genocide to such an extent where the rightful indigenous peoples cannot feasibly reclaim full or even partial power without being part of a larger whole.

Can you even decolonise at all without socialism?
