(Generally speaking when I refer to these things I'm talking about potential voters, activists and ideologues rather than "everyone" but) a race-blind society is a generally boomer-approved meme in America which includes cuckservatives and a lot of the people who participated in the counterculture. For those who didn't already think "race was over as a problem" (more conservative types), Obama was the candidate for those Whites who did not believe in race on the left and wanted to end their "guilt" with a (part) Kenyan "Black" president. Thing is in the counterculture various racialist movements were established and the Black "community" is an important voting block. Obama is in this category of a black identarian radical in reality. So in effect people voted for pretty radical (for them) racialism only to find out, amidst riots and rapes and robberies excused by the "beyond race" president and radicalizing millenial SJW morons, that "race had not ended."

Furthermore other leftist factions have a pseudo-collectivist identarian element, acting as if females or homosexuals are a population on their own.

As far as making up a term to deconstruct differences which in turn "drifts" to the same purpose/meaning (because the reality is the same) and then has to be rephrased again, there are of course many examples in America -- Colored people -> Afro-American -> African-American -> People of Color ("Colored people" is racist though!); illegal alien -> illegal immigrant -> undocumented worker -> (if nothing changes) undocumented American.
