Uh, no. Non-white people living in their own countries aren't POC, POC specifically refers to non-white people living in the US where they are minorities and oppressed.
Japanese people living in Japan are not POC. Eastern European people living in France are not POC (despite being oppressed there!). Etc. That word is US-specific and doesn't apply or really function anywhere else.
You're just trying to cover your own ignorance with fake outrage because you forgot that places like Italy, Spain and France exist and got hit way before you.
