I feel with you OP, LGBT culture adopted queer as a reclaimed word but I really don't like being called a queer

Well to be fair, that wouldn't work when they're plan is to make white people the "minority" effectively making the term obsolete.

well that's a word that only makes sense in the context of a society where they're actually minorities. pretty sure white people don't make up the majority of people globally, and they certainly don't make up a majority in every country

that works too. or ethnic minorities. it all comes down to linguistic preference i guess. personally i can't really find a problem with the use of "poc" but that's just me. i can understand where you're coming from though but there's not much that can be done about it
