It isn't enabling anyone to speak facts. And showing support and solidarity when people speak up about the racism and brutality they face is not belittling.
You saying the oppression of BIPOC is "enabled" by speaking about the reality that they face rather than denying or staying silent about it is racism.
That's like saying giving someone a cast for their broken leg and crutches to help them walk is "enabling them". Giving people space and recognition and actions that support them when they speak about violence they endure, is not "enabling" anything. To such we are enabling the oppression of people by listening to them makes it sound like they are the one with the problem. YOU are the problem, and everyone else like you.
