"So you want to fight white supremacy" strikes me as a modern day Don Quixote story, complete with battling windmills because someone thinks they are being attacked by giants.
No thanks, I'll save my energy and my fight for things that are actual problems rather than wasting it on false narratives designed to ensure the nation stays as divided as possible.
this was three years ago that i posted this... and things have changed since then to be sure. quite an uptick in domestic terrorist groups

Yeah, the non-white supremacists started burning down American neighborhoods because they dislike being held to standards of personal responsibility and practice self control. Again, not seeing the white supremacy involved there aside from it being an excuse and an imagined problem conveniently utilized as a scape goat.

Absolute disgusting screed from a far leftists.
Just another America hater.
How about this gem.
Our country’s entire social, political, and economic system is built off of the promise that poor and working class whites would always get more than everyone else — that they deserved more than everyone else. When the profits of white supremacy prove to be meager, because capitalism will always send the spoils to the top few, the anger of being cheated out of their just rewards is easily funneled into racist hate.
Yep its capitlism. We should be more socialists like venezuala, its working out so well.
More demonizing of poor white people; they feel that they deserve more. What garbage.
The racist mythology needed to morally justify white supremacy is disseminated first and foremost through schools. Do you know what is in your children’s textbooks? How is slavery being taught? How is the Civil War discussed? What conversations are had in class around Thanksgiving or Columbus Day? At what age are your children learning about the Japanese internment camps — if at all? What black history is being taught outside of black history month? Are any of the explorers, scientists, politicians, or artists lauded in class Latinx, Asian American, or Native American? Is the hatred and violence perpetrated against Muslim Americans and people of Southeast Asian descent since 9/11 discussed?
Thats funny. Any rational look of academia sees that it is filled with idenity politic pushing leftists that routine, like this guy, blame whiteness for everything.
If you back this racist screed that blames whitey for all of the problems of the world, I feel sorry for you.
Will they talk about the unrivalled generosity and kindness of white people who, every year, send billions in aid relief, build schools, hospitals, famine relief etc...etc...etc...
It'd be a pretty ugly world.

So You Want To Fight White Supremacy
White supremacy is not just about the hateful actions of individuals or groups of individuals.
White supremacy is first and foremost a system. A system which puts the belief that white people are superior to other races into practice. It is this system that makes white supremacy as dangerous as it is, and it kills people much more violently and with more frequency than we’ve seen this past weekend in Virginia.
White supremacy is in our workplace, our school system, our government and our prisons. It is in our books and movies and television. White supremacy has been woven into the fabric of our nation from the moment that white settlers decided that their claim to land was more important than the lives of indigenous people. This is not a new problem. This is America.
we all love 'discussing' things on the internet, but one-on-one arguments and threads like this aren't going to change hearts and minds, or result in measurable progress. even protesting will only go so far.
it's incumbent on us, especially those of us with the privilege to have some momentum, to look at the systems around us and how they contribute to the continuation of oppression.
this article is a good starting point to explore these concepts if you're new to them, or to see if there's anything you've missed.

Do only white people participate in the things you mentioned or do people of color also get credit for helping out.
Does the irony of your statement escape you?

Yes it is...this is today.

But this chant..."Jews will not replace us" has me a bit mystified.
I think it was "You will not replace us".
Which is probably true.
The white genes are "recessive."
Which means that there are probably white DNA "hiding" in every non-white person on this planet.
Obama might look black, and even identify as black to the society he lives in, but inside he is still part white.
So, you can never get rid of whiteness. It will always be there, as long as there are humans walking about on the planet.
You just don't see it all the time.
Not sure why Neo-Nazis feel the need to "fight" for a "white society."
They seem to be mostly concerned with "looking white" on the "outside skin."
