The Patriot Front--
The group’s leader, Thomas Rousseau, says that only White people of European heritage can call themselves American. His group’s manifesto claims that “Americans are on the threshold of becoming a conquered people.” The group advocates a return to an ultra-conservative society; Rousseau says women should not involve themselves with politics, and in interviews has called for the deportation of both citizens and non-citizens.
“Those of foreign birth may occupy civil status within the lands occupied by the state, and they may even be dutiful citizens, yet they may not be American,” their manifesto states.

According to the Patriot Front, people whose ancestors were brought over in chains to work the plantations are not Americans. Neither are those of Hispanic heritage, who, for example, once owned what later became California and Texas, before 'White' Europeans came.
At least one other contributor to this forum stated that Italians and Greeks are also not 'White'--so, basically, north of the Alps/Pyrenees is the geological dividing line.
Some excerpts from the above-linked article:
Asked about a former grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, Rousseau said: “I don’t know a whole lot about David Duke’s life … I will say that I’m broadly unfamiliar with the man.”
But months later, Patriot Front hosted a 75th birthday party for Duke at a facility in Texas, which the former KKK leader attended. At the gathering, Duke was celebrated with live music, speeches and a three-tiered birthday cake adorned with Confederate flags and illustrations of the KKK hood.
In a post on Telegram to its members to mark the occasion, Patriot Front praised Duke’s “long and remarkable political career” and his “lifelong campaign for race-realism in America.”
Events like these, and a conference that Patriot Front organized this year, are more than just celebrations: They’re networking events, attended by individuals and groups from across the White supremacist and neo-Nazi spectrum.
One group invited to attend Duke’s birthday, for example, was a small, upstart National Socialist organization called The New Way, according to a message the group’s founder posted on Telegram. That group positions itself as a successor to the Nazi regime.
“As much as we love Hitler and the NSDAP (Nazi party), we have to admit that they failed,” the group wrote in a Telegram post last month. “We must learn from their mistakes and make sure that we avenge them.”
Patriot Front have occupied a 'compound' in TN. The land was bought in 2021 by Liudmila Culpepper, according to the property deed. She was one half of a notorious neo-Nazi couple which wielded particular influence in Tennessee’s extremist circles.
Her husband, Brian Culpepper, led the state’s chapter of the National Socialist Movement, once the most prominent neo-Nazi group in the US. Both he and his wife have been pictured giving Nazi salutes to their peers. In a 2015 interview he said Dylann Roof, the neo-Nazi who fatally shot nine Black worshippers at a church in Charleston, had “valid talking points,” and told the interviewer: “I’m a racist, I certainly am.”

America, you got a racism problem on your hands. It's nothing to be proud of. And no, there are no "valid talking points" about murdering people you don't happen to like.

@yo-its-me saidthey say it’s just bare-fisted boxing on private ground, nothing political at all. But they show up to political demonstrations wearing face masks, so they can’t be identified.

@yo-its-me saidWhite supremacism plus guns is a toxic cocktail, indeed. It's one of the reasons I left, but I still have friends and family there. One of my nieces is half Aleut--if anybody is justified in claiming they were conquered and replaced, it's the peoples who were there 30,000 years before 'White' Europeans with guns showed up.
I'm very glad i don't live in the USA/ aka gun-roulette-country

@moonbus saidSounds like a lunatic whose words and thoughts should be condemned. Anyone affiliated with the KKK should also be condemned.

In extreme cases, the maximum should be life imprisonment.
@moonbus saidI just wonder how many people here reading these words are thinking "Sounds good."

@Suzianne saidWe haven't heard from any of them yet....These foul - minded individuals kind of sculk in the shadows, forming their organisations when the climate seems right. In the UK in the 70s we had the 'National Front', I well remember going on 'Anti Nazi League' marches. To quote Galadriel, 'The world has changed, I see it in the water.'

Our world has become a nastier place, Russia has gone all expansionist under Putin, there's the Gaza Strip, whoever one blames for that, Western Europe is doing its' best to arm - up against a backdrop of stagnant economy, Jews are getting shot for having festivals in Australia, Afghanistan has gone weird.....I mean there are always wars, I grew up with Vietnam, and we now have a general sense of malcontent and negativity, which pervades the Western World. The cost of living 'crisis'; nobody's happy, and in such conditions ultra - nationalist organisations thrive and prosper. In all probability the next UK Prime Minister will be Nigel Farage....I feel lucky to have had my formative political years in the 70s, off the back of the 'Peace Movement', that's all gone now, and lingers only in quiet places, in the minds of the few. The 'bread - heads' have taken over, and is there any more poignant manifestation of the 'spirit of the age' than Donald Trump?
All one can do is hang on to ones' hat, and ones' integrity, and ones' philosophy, and hope for better times....
@Indonesia-Phil saidI must say you have a realistic view of the world.

The Wheel keeps turning, soon enough we'll find ourselves in a new age, hopefully a better one.
@Indonesia-Phil saidIn times of turmoil, sensible people's voices get drowned out by extremists, on both ends of the spectrum.

@moonbus saidIt's very sad that so many people who identify with white nationalism don't understand that Mediterranean and Celtic people are not who is being referred to. White nationalism is a Protestant Germanic thing and Greeks, Italians and Hispanics have a long history of being rejected. So do Irish.
