This is because most white liberals inevitably end up more supportive of continuing institutions that practice systemic racism rather than reforming them. If they truly "preferred the out-groups," that would never have been the case.
Oh look, another label leftists try to label everything they don't like... 'systemic racism.'
But they - white liberals - do prefer 'out-groups' obviously, because they want to help them, and therefore control them. Via employment, through government paychecks, by controlling what they see and hear to determine who they vote for.
Its the dark side of white saviorism.

White Saviorism: Examples, Impact, & Overcoming It
White saviorism refers to a pattern of viewing white people as “rescuing” people in marginalized communities. Here’s what that looks like and why it’s harmful.

"Helping people is a good thing, right?
Not always.
White savior complex is a term that’s used to describe white people who consider themselves wonderful helpers to Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) — but they “help” for the wrong reasons (and sometimes end up doing more to hurt than help).
Keep in mind that this doesn’t refer to all white people. White savior complex, sometimes called white savior syndrome or white saviorism, refers to those who work from the assumption that they know best what BIPOC folks need.
They believe it’s their responsibility to support and uplift communities of color — in their own country or somewhere else — because people of color lack the resources, willpower, and intelligence to do it themselves.
In short, white saviors consider themselves superior, whether they realize it or not. They swoop in to “make a difference” without stopping to consider whether that difference might not, in fact, have more negative effects than positive ones."
