Reply to comment by pbredd in There have been more and more incidents of racially derogatory words being used by younger younger kids, at least here in Londonderry, NH. What’s the deal? by [deleted]
Something important to add is that a lot of modern white nationalism is a direct response to black nationalism/black supremacy organizations and cultural norms.

I guess that depends on what you consider black nationalist/ supremacy groups…. I dont consider groups that protest cops killing blacks like Black Lives Matter a nationalist or supremacy group..: plus the factor of minority status makes black nationalism difficult … I think the white nationalists often twist the message of their “counterpart” in order to rouse the hate …

There’s definitely a strawman at play. There are numerous organizations that have made “white supremacy” videos, the most famous one being the woman who said “What exactly are white people better than black people at? Conquering!”
White supremacists treat the entire left wing as if they believe in that, when in reality they don’t.
Even in the Black Lives Matter thing, there’s a range, kind of like antifa. On one end you have the white teenage girls putting BLM in their Instagram bio, and on the other end you have the people burning down cities. In reality a vast majority of people who support BLM fall in between. Again, an example of scapegoating/strawman
