Sure it can, if a vegetarian friend of yours said "If you want to increase your health remove all the disgusting meat from your diet", would you read that as them saying that all meat is disgusting or just the occasional piece?

English isn't a strict language. The context here depends on the frequency that you would consume disgusting meat and that will change the common meaning. I suppose there are people who literally think all white men are bigoted and could mean it to apply that way, but I find it unlikely that was the original intent.

That said I don't think there was a need to call out white men specifically in the sentence.

This is Alon Altman's (@epsalon) current Twitter bio. How would you read the original intent?

Well, if that bio triggered me, I'd probably assume bad intent. But it doesn't trigger me, so it makes me glad to see people fighting for inclusion.
