Just to be fair to the utterly unhinged out there and absolutely nothing to do with Jago and his excellent blog, I was once in court when a band of white supremacists were brought before the judge. As they pled their various pleas, the judge did make a point of asking each if they understood what white supremacy was as, whatever “white” is, a segment of the group were simply not. One was quite incensed with the others when it was explained.

I don’t read Jago’s site so I’m not saying he is one, but you don’t have to be white to be a white supremacist. I’ve encountered numerous non-white people who espouse white supremacist dogma. Besides that, there’s a new breed of supremacist cropping up; the western (culture) supremacist. People like Steyn fit that mold. Since these two types of supremacist use similar rhetoric it’s easy to confuse the two.

I usually read the ‘comment’ before looking to see who wrote it. No surprise at #2…Robert could simply save a lot of time and energy by offering “Self Loathing” as his universal comment; appropriate for all occasions.

“but you don’t have to be white to be a white supremacist.”

The rational alchemy of that conclusion defies reality. Most revisionist dementia does anyway so why are we surprised that the language does not mean what it states any more.

I suggest the “confusion” is in your definition which has expanded past the self evident limits of the label.

Supremacism exists in many forms, Alan. Just because you’ve only heard of white supremacism doesn’t make the other forms conspiratorial.

Ya, right, McCelland. He’s not Indian enough for ya, is he. Ya gotta be angry and bitter and down trodden to be an Indian. The Indian Industry depends on it.

Yes, I often have the same problem with “progressive” and “too stupid to be left alone.”

LOL! Like I need education on that point. That is gold.
