No, what you are probably thinking is not, and it's also not what vermin is referring to either.
Think of it this way - James Brown sang "say it loud". We think nothing of it. It doesn't mean you can't be proud of who you are as a white person, but you'd never (I hope) refer to it as "white pride".
Unfortunately because of the broad use of it by the fringes the word has become tainted and it’s no longer innocent. Much like how I can’t flash the ok sign anymore (thanks to the white power people.)
flashed multiple times over the last few years, and no one cares or brings up "white power". It seems one group of people is more focused on this "issue" than others.
