Call It For What It Is

The revelations around Stephen Miller, the architect of Trump's anti-immigrant policies including family separations, show that his links with the so called "white nationalists." Miller is not only a racist, but a sadistic psychopath, who hopefully will meet a harsh reckoning someday. Miller, by the way attended Duke University, where he associated with neo-Nazi Richard Spencer. Keep that in mind since Miller likes to cry "anti-Semitism" whenever he is criticized.

The term "white nationalism" is nothing more than an attempt to disguise white supremacism. It is an attempt to camouflage the ugliness of Ku Kluxers and skinheads and make it seem respectable. White supremacism is the same vile garbage, no matter how they try to dress it up.

A New Wannabe Fuhrer

Nick Fuentes has emerged as the newest wannabe racist fuhrer of the altright. Fuentes, who is 21 years old, spews the typical rash of racism, anti-Semitism and islamophobia, which utters with increased shrillness. He also advocates violence against anyone he doesn't agree with. Information on Fuentes is scarce. According to an article in Wikipedia (in Spanish) Fuentes claims he dropped out of Boston University after receiving threats. In an interview with The Tab Fuentes admitted he is "25 percent Mexican" and justifies his position by all kinds of illogical gobbledygook (ie. by quibbling about the definition of "race.)

Perhaps we should stop using the term racism and instead use the term bigotry, because it is more generalized and inclusive.
