By saying intra instead of inter, you’re suggesting it’s within the races, instead of between (different) races. I choose to believe this was intentional and witty
It aligns with the context and their post history suggests they know how to use words. There is nothing bad with explaining rhetorics, but doing it like this comes through as belittling.
They’re making a point about how race is a human construct created to separate humans for the purpose of power. The idea of race didn’t exist until the 1750’s or so when Linneaus categorized people based on geographic location and racist stereotypes.
Right, go tell that to Herodotus when he was talking about various other races of peoples and how barbaric they were compared to the Greeks, in 425BCE.
Or just keep making up shit that race is a modern European white man only thing. Don’t let the the rest of history and the other cultures of the world inconveniently disprove your stupidly modern euro centric view of the world.
No, I need idiots to stop spouting bullshit that isn’t true because they love making up simplistic narratives that are false to suite their political agenda and stroke their own egos.
Most violence is intraracial.

All human on human violence is intraracial. That is because human genetic variation does not support the division into different races.
Are you confusing “race” and “species”?
