Software development isn't a production problem, it's a design problem.
Software manufacturing is the bit after you compile the code.

Nothing that a wealth tax on the current value of land won't fix. Make property taxes to the value of the number of people that land should support in a highrise configuration, and let the current owners pay it.

There's a context implied, but not explicitly stated here.
Being "blind to race" means that the context in which the other person exists is being ignored. Seeing things like race and gender mean that you are keeping context in mind when interacting with people.
Systemic racism isn't necessarily about your personal intent, but it is about the results of your actions. Being blind to race effectively results in supporting the racist status quo. Being blind to sexism effectively results in supporting the sexist status quo.
The current default for American society is white. PoC have a different lived experience, and white people don't often know what it is like to have that lived experience. Similarly, richer people lack an understanding of what poverty implies about the lack of choices.

There are a number of axes where discrimination exists, and being blind to those axes means that you support the discriminatory position in practice.
