> It's grossly unfair to conflate white nationalism and white supremacy

No, it isn't. It's a distinction without a difference.

I know exactly how my grandparents would've reacted because I've seen it first-hand, and it's ugly and carries precisely zero validity. It's not to be emulated any more than someone who was born in 1850's skepticism towards automobiles and airplanes is.

You can call it white nationalism if you like but you are spouting the exact same talking points as white supremacists, you just prefer to buy it under a different brand.

This feels like the "technically it's hebephilia" argument in that drawing the distinction just makes your argument weaker for regular people.

> It's grossly unfair to conflate white nationalism and white supremacy. Your grandparents lived in a state that was close to 100% european descent

Why do you think that makes a difference?

Hint: white supremacy (believing whites are superior).

As someone who is so white they glow in the dark, no. They are exactly the same.

You don't speak for me, and I find you embarrassing.

What exactly would happen according to you? The state in question got more Mexicans or South Americans which are also descendants of European colonists? Almost every American have European heritage. In my opinion this doesn't make much sense for Americans.

What exactly means to be culturally white in US?

You can be racist and still hate fascism and Nazis.

Everyone should hate fascism and Nazis.

Just like how the "antifascists" who stormed the beaches of Normandy would support the "antifascists" of today! "my grandpa was antifa!!"

It's grossly dishonest to conflate a complexion with an ethnicity. 'White' is a complexion, not a culture.

For most of the past five centuries, the people you're lumping into this thing called 'white' would've considered it fighting words to do so.
