'''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 knows no home on the [[political spectrum]].  Many [[leftwing]] white supremacists are advocates of the [[nanny state]] and view people not like themselves as competitors for government handouts, which they feel an [[entitlement]] to based on [[white privilege]].  They vote [[Democrat]], not out of a feeling of compassion or kinship with minorities, but to keep the government gravy train rolling. Other white supremacists are known to cash in on [[illegal immigration]] through human trafficing.<ref>Multiple references:

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 eventually sided with Darwinism and rejected creationism. He concluded that with, ‘each passing day more evidence emerges of the dynamic, genetically-born, physical and physiological differences between the races’. So ended his ‘fleeting commitment’ to orthodox Christianity, even though he still peppers his writings with religious phrases, such as if ‘I can move our people one inch toward … God … my life will have been worthwhile’. His life tells a very different story. In short, after his acceptance of Darwinism, Duke unabashedly classified both the European and Asian races at a ‘higher level of human evolution than the African race’. He concluded that, ‘the evolution of man from his primitive to his modern state came from Nature’. Duke now firmly believes that ‘all life on Earth had evolved and is still undergoing change’.<ref>[https://creation.com/darwinisms-influence-on-modern-racists-and-white-supremacist-groups-the-case-of-david-duke Darwin's influence on modern racists] by Dr. Jerry Bergman]</ref>}}

While the meaning (discussed above) of "white supremacy" has been well understood for decades, some academic scholars have sought to cloud the issue.  Since the 1970s, some civil rights leaders have complained of "institutional racism" that is the product of a total institution, even when the individuals are not racist.  Such collective "racism" gave rise to demands for "sensitivity training" of individuals as well as express [[affirmative action]] quotas.  Although allegations of institutional racism have become passe, the concept has now reappeared by redefining "white supremacy."  For example, legal scholar Frances Lee Ansley explains this definition as follows:
