Racism as an aspect of tribalism is probably an evolved, inherited trait of everyone. So if everyone's racist to some extent, pointing to indicators of racism in politics is an excuse for not voting or for being undecided.

Even if some Democratic policies unfairly discriminate against whites--and again, it seems rather that those policies would be intended to address prior, much worse discrimination against blacks that benefited whites--the notion that such discrimination justifies uncertainty about whom to vote for in the 2024 election strikes me as ludicrous. The notion that some discriminatory farm bill under Biden makes Harris as bad as Trump is preposterous.

I don't think you're stating the full reasons for your indecision, and that's possibly because you haven't recognized them.
