Gerry Heng addresses this in her early globalities article for LICO. She has discussed this both at MAA and MLA this year. This has then been part of the discussion for her and her work on Global MA since 2007. I would read and cite her.
I don't think it was about ironic tone. IT was straight uphold white supremacist frames and completely ignore and erase a lot of the critical scholarship done by non-white scholars. To then decide the defense is "irony" is straight out of postracialism 101.

This is #4 in Sumi Cho's article on postracialism, the "US" is too sensitive excuse and the racism is an American invention and it's not happening in Europe excuse. So no, they wrote it, there is no irony & there is no excuse for it.

There was a short passage which I believe was intended ironically/sarcastically. You haven’t even asked which one before jumping to dismiss me. But wd I have written the intro differently? Yes. That’s why I said: take the time to read my own work before throwing around judgments.
