Dear White People : This looks extremely condescending

I get enough lecturing and talking down to on the news and when I was a college student.

Then you missed the point of the movie it's based on.

Of course it's meant to come off as "condescending". The main character is a condescending woman acts as she does because she's navigating her own identity as a mixed race woman (white father, black mother). Even at a crucial part of the movie her (equally white) boyfriend points out the truth of her character: she presents herself as one thing that's to be expected of her via culture and acts a completely different way when it's the two of them because she's free to be herself and not her persona.

The people who've come on here to complain about the subject matter and title (and clearly haven't seen the original film) fail to understand the director (who's black and gay) used the material to go after black culture just as much as, if not more than, white culture. They're both skewered to hell and he makes no apologies for either side of the argument.

There's a difference between a differing opinion and a forced one.
