| | '''White supremacy''' is a manifestation of [[identity politics]] which is based on collectivism. It is a [[racist]] ideology which asserts that [[white people]] (often known as '[[Aryans]]', although not in the Indo-Iranian sense) are somehow "better" than people of other races. These feelings can range from mild (personal bigotry) to extreme (advocating political and social dominance for white people, or ethnic cleansing). White supremacism is often associated with [[evolutionary racism]], [[Nazism]] and other [[fascism|fascist]] ideologies. | | '''White supremacy''' is a manifestation of [[identity politics]] which is based on collectivism.

| | Duke’s father, a geologist, tried to reconcile evolution with Christianity by concluding that evolution was the means God used to create life. This background set the groundwork for Duke’s later acceptance of Darwinism. As he read more and more on ‘the scientific issue of race’, he became torn between his religion and science. Duke was doing his research on Darwinism while he was attending a Church of Christ school in New Orleans. As a result of his study of evolution, Duke openly challenged his Sunday school teachers by discussing his evolving ideas about the origin of humans, and their implication for racism. When endeavoring to combine his Darwinist racist beliefs with Christianity, Duke used many of the same rationalizations used by theistic evolutionists to rationalize the plain statements of Genesis. | | Duke’s father, a geologist, tried to reconcile evolution with Christianity by concluding that evolution was the means God used to create life.

| | White feminism is a tool of White supremacy. If you wield it, you are comporting yourself like a White supremacist, and cloaking it in condescending benevolence doesn’t take the stench off of it. Don’t be surprised when the people who are White supremacy’s targets accept the version of yourself you’re presenting (intentionally or not) and want nothing to do with it. As long as White supremacy is at work in your politics, there is nothing for people of color, particularly Black people, to unite with. Your demands to “stop being divisive!” are attempts to manipulate and control people you believe should obey you, and you should interrogate why you feel entitled to their subservience.<ref>https://zora.medium.com/when-feminism-dovetails-with-white-supremacy-32ab47c2a967</ref>}} | | White feminism is a tool of White supremacy.
