ALL the hate groups belong to the DEMS.
Dinesh is a bright guy but he is wrong, preserving a history and protesting the removal of a monument honoring that history is not ethnic nationalism, it is just nationalism, and even if persuaded to believe that it is doesn’t mean it belongs in the ‘D’ column.
“A white supremacist “
I don’ buy it. I believe that group was a George Soros funded group pretending to be white supremacists.
There seems to be a lot of conflating of terms around this sort of thing.
I’m white. I am proud to be white. How can that possibly be wrong?
I’m a nationalist and a patriot. How can that possibly be wrong?
I am a white nationalist. That is not an evil thing to be.
AND THE CONFLATION — I guess I just admitted to being a white supremacist and a long time Klan member, right?
No.
The Black Lives Matter people are racial supremacists. If you say “All Lives Matter” they get very upset — “No, no, no — BLACK lives matter.”
If Hollywood needs someone to play God, you know it’s going to be Morgan Freeman.
White people are stupid and evil and hateful. White people cause all the problems in the world, right?
Someone (BLM) is trying to pit the races against each other and to declare that Whites are bad and Blacks are better. That’s a racial supremacy argument.
I’m a nationalist white guy.
When they see that and call me a White Supremacist, they’re using a rhetorical cheat. THEY are the supremacists. Not me.
I’m a non violent white nationalist.
I’m half Italian and I love America. What’s left of it.
It is true that Democrats support every other form of ethnonationalism.
So why do they leave only one group out?
Is it so that the other groups will have an enemy to rally against?
White Supremacy is the granddaddy of all identity politics and it does come from the Democrats. Republicans are more about individual opportunity regardless of race, creed, color, religion, etc. The thing about identity politics is that it is very clubby and people periodically get tossed out if they do not tow the line by saying and doing the “correct things.” The White Supremacists have been kicked out of the Democrat club which is now all about turning the United States of America into the international equivalent of the crazy neighborhood cat hoarder, only with people instead of cats (just not white ones). So yes, the White Supremacists are homeless, but nationalists of any stripe are not homeless.
They are Democrats and most Democrats (at least the ones in the Democrat power structure) secretly agree with them.
Ever wonder why the party of slavery and segregation is so eager to remove Confederate monuments and wipe the Confederacy from history?
Real life is more complicated than that.
