'''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 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>}}
