I do. I know a ton of white people who do. My family does. This is true across family/friends ib multiple states. My kid calls our close adult friends uncle/aunt/gramma.
I guess some don’t. I’m sure that’s also true of some non-white people.
I’m sure you could find specific subcultures elsewhere that don’t do this, but it’s the default everywhere else. It’s not just close family friends or people you grew up with, any friend from a generation up is Uncle or Aunty
I’m sure there’s a reason for it, and it’s probably a very interesting one

OK but saying white people don’t do this is wrong
It’s an exaggeration to illustrate a point… It’s not literally true
But it is pointing at something that is true
