Answer:

Malcolm refers to the white man as "the pirate opportunist".

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Malcolm the white man only seeks his own benefit and does not mind resorting to deception, fraud or lies as long as he always wins or takes advantage of any situation.

When Malcolm says that the white man is a pirate, he makes him look like a criminal who always tries to make a profit at the cost of injustice and violating good principles or ethical values.
