What is it you actually want? Should all black people be offended when you are offended? If they aren't they want to be "picked" by white people? If "I'm black and I'm offended" is legit. So is "I'm black and am not offended".

How are you not equipped to comment? Is this an issue that doesn't affect you? When speaking on black issues, the term is necessary. People are allowed to to have different opinions but those that are framed in a certain manner are incredibly damaging to an entire race in one-

Go. Most times I've been on the internet, people with opposing views often seek something to validate their sometimes incorrect opinions and someone prefacing their opinion with with "blackness" as if it some major cosign to validate something is problematic within itself.

Agree; it’s a maneuvering thing. Ppl appeal to their identity category to validate their claim; when you point out not all ppl of their identity category (including possibly yourself) agree with the claim, then the identity category is redrawn to make the argument consistent.

Do you think we should be able to freely speak on other's identity categories or should those within their specific categories hold more weight when it is an issue relating to them?

It’s pretty nuanced; there are some circumstances where someone probably has more relevant experience due to their identity category I agree.
