Re: comeonman

Modern white nationalism (and similar ideologies) try to sell themselves on the whole "exclusion is diversity, we don't hate any race, we just feel seperation is best for everyone". You even threw in the old strawman of "wahh they just want to make all of us a lifeless gray corporate monoculture".

Fact - ever since the European expansion (which began in Iberia, remember that, not in the British Isles), the rate at which distinct cultures and languages go extinct has only accelerated. The world's cultural diversity has been going down ever since and continues to do so. Nobody needs to have a direct agenda of uniformity for this to happen, and today few have it; but it is happening everywhere anyway. Even in countries with minimal European or Europeanised populations such as parts of Africa and Asia. And isolation helps preserve these cultural particularities and differences. Of course isolation also helps racism; but don't let the fight against racism become a fight against the right to be different. We might all be equal but we are also all different. Equality is of treatment, not of values and outlooks on life - that's the difference.

Perusing Stormfront or any similar site will quickly disabuse you of that notion,

And perusing Violent Desires will also disabuse you of the notion that there are loving pedophiles.

White Nationalism, Black Nationalism, and all the other "nationalisms" are virulent, hate-filled ideologies that ought to be curtailed and denounced, if not eradicated.

Yeah, of course the savages would be better if Europe still ruled them directly. Those hate filled ideologues like BolÃvar, San MartÃn, Kenyatta, Lumumba, Sukarno, Rizal... they should be hanged! Of course Europeans began this mess - hang Chopin, de Valera, Garibaldi, Cuza and Palacky too!

Nationalism, racial, cultural, ethnic or otherwise, is a relic of the last century.

Nationalism with a nation-state, yeah, I grant you that.
Nationalism with a group, any group, as such - no, it has existed since forever.

And rarely has it been about race, because it is also relatively modern that people are exposed in their own localities to large groups of people whose visible race differs greatly from their own. Sure, there's been travellers and traders, but they're a minority. But that a Westerner (or for that matter a foreign Muslim or a Chinese) cannot tell a Brahmin apart from an Untouchable by their visible race doesn't mean the Brahmin (and probably the Untouchable too) will fail to feel offended at the confusion.
