Look man, you gotta give people more of a hint on what you mean, cause I went the opposite direction with the word "suck" and now I've gotta deal with that shit all night.

It's controversial because it clearly states a simple, true statement, that it is okay to be white. This in turn has thrown the media into a frenzy, and has finally revealed their true colors on race: That it is not okay to be white.

Rather because it's such an obviously true statement that anyone loudly proclaiming is highly likely to mean something more than just that statement.

Okay.
And by that standard, historically, there has been an attitude and rhetoric in popular culture that white people aren't okay.
For instance, see the "Having white babies is racist" professor.
So what's the difference between the two?

However, It's Okay To Be White, in reality, is an outcry from centrist and conservative whites who can feel their privilege slipping away. We've seen this happen with Jim Crow, Racial Riots after Jim Crow and here we are again today. White People feel their systematic oppression of others and the privilege they've enjoyed slipping away so their reaction, to create a campaign alleging social injustice against their race when in reality the very campaign is racist because it once again disenfranchises minorities especially black people.
Black Lives Matter: Fight hundreds of years of racial injustice.
It's Okay To Be White: Fight... two years of racial isolation caused by groups created to combat our systematic oppression.

Trying to claim that white people have had it as bad as blacks in the west to the same degree is laughable and dishonest.

Actually, you can.
If the circumstances behind the use of one slogan are different, then the other slogan may get a less receptive or welcoming audience, and rightly so.
We all know the reason behind the Black Lives Matter slogan, whether one agrees with it's objectives or the message it sends. White Lives Matter is nothing more than reactionaries trying (and failing) to be edgy and rile people up, not an attempted response.
Anybody who thinks it's actually about racism of any kind needs their head examined.
White Lives Matter might be reactionary and based on opposition to BLM, but All Lives Matter is based in more practical objections, including concerns about focus.
(Stop shooting black people V Let's demilitarize the police.)
Similarly, It's Ok To Be White is based on combating anti-white sentiments and prejudice.
