The one liner about the agent being a colonizer was directed at him just because he's white. That's a generalization about white skin without regard for the many nationalities that have white skin and without regard for whether or not that individual in question had any part in colonization.

Wakanda began outreach in that ghetto because that was where Killmonger was from. Note that before that scene Black Panther was at the UN meeting and saying he was going to share technology / vibranium with everyone.

Killmonger's father was perfectly fine employing violence in his pursuits (hence the weapons). Killmonger wanted to destabilize nations through in-fighting, not really help other black people. His father dying is why he became a villain and wanted to kill Black Panther. He even says he purposely joined the military and trained and killed as many people as possible in preparation to kill Black Panther.

You would've had the same exact film if you removed the one liners about white people. For example if you removed the "colonizer" joke and the "another broken white boy for me to fix" joke and whatever you would've had the same exact movie with the same exact drama/conflicts. In fact there was far more drama in the film because of the conflict between Africans and African Americans (like when Killmonger asked Black Panther where the Wakandans were when his people were being shipped off to be slaves) than because of the conflict between colonizers and Africans hundreds of years ago.
