“Or are you OK with La Raza and their ilk?”

No, but I have made the point that what the “ilk” are seeking are greater than equal rights, actually do hate whites, and hence are supremacists. (You may want to check my other posts on this subject and yesterday.)

However, the alt right seem to be complaining about reverse discrimination. Which takes them out of the supremacist camp.

I’m not into white nationalism, but white nationalism being “wrong” does not necessarily make it extreme or dangerous.

When I see folks confusing the nationalism with the supremacy, just like the press does, my pointing that out is not obfuscation. It is pointing out the echo chamber. From what I’ve read, I’m the only one here who’s actually posted links to their site so folks can see for themselves what they say. I’ve also posted links to the SPLC description of them.

You on the other hand characterize them like this:

“Hatred of those who aren’t White,”

Not true. You are putting them in the supremacist camp even though you claim to know the difference.

Supremacists are not just “for” their “race”, they are “against” the others because they are better-than. Claiming they hate the non-white is putting them in that supremacist camp.

My pet peeve on this subject is that I have not seen any real evidence of that mentality from the alt right, even though you and the press are saying so so fervently.

If you've seen no evidence of that, then I have to believe you're being too selective. I've certainly seen such evidence. Today. On this very thread. For instance, the notion that Whites "creating and maintaining civilization", as if no other race is capable or contributed to "civilization". That's extremely narrow and patently false—and supremacist—thinking.

Additionally, you said:

Keep in mind the only institutionalized bigotry in the US is against whites and males.

Now that is just patently false. Can you at least acknowledge that there was institutionalized bigotry in the US against Blacks, and females?

If so, it's ludicrous to claim that it has all swung completely over to be only against whites and males. There's plenty of bigotry to go around in America—including institutionalized bigotry.

Obviously the anti-White bigotry you've cited is in vogue institutionally nowadays, but to presume that none of the other exists—after a long history of official existence—is simply not realistic. Specific examples can be located to suit any race or sex.

For example, in my living memory—and I'm less than 55—my own uncle was arrested driving through Georgia simply because he had a black woman in the front seat of his car. His platonic friend—the black woman—was arrested too. That's institutional racism...
