"American nationalists", also known as "white nationalists", also known as white supremacists.

Thinking about Whitey's earlier post on tradesmen etc, what would be the typical demographics of these 'supremacists'?

The Anti Defamation League reckons there are about 250,000 of them

Numerous well-known white supremacists weighed in on President-elect Trump's appointment of Bannon as his chief strategist. David Duke called the selection of Bannon "excellent," adding that Bannon was "basically creating the ideological aspects of where we're going." Peter Brimelow, who runs the racist site VDare, said that the Bannon hire was "amazing."  Jared Taylor of American Renaissance and Brad Griffin who runs the Occidental Dissent website both said that Bannon would help hold Trump to his campaign rhetoric on immigration and other issues.  Rocky Suhayda of the American Nazi Party voiced the same view.  In addition, Bannon has reportedly reached out to far-right figure and French political activist Marine Le Pen. She tweeted that he had invited her to work together with the new Trump administration.

Many of the Breitbart headlines published under Bannon's tenure illustrate the website's virulently anti-Muslim, misogynistic, worldview, including: "Planned Parenthood's Body Count Under Cecile Richards is Up to Half a Holocaust," "Would You Rather Your Child Had Feminism or Cancer?" and "Political Correctness Protects Muslim Rape Culture." As Bannon's defenders have pointed out, these headlines are designed to attract attention and readers, and are not necessarily evidence that Bannon himself is an anti-Semite, a misogynist or an anti-Muslim bigot.
However, under Bannon, Breitbart News has provided a platform for anti-Muslim extremists such as Pamela Geller, Robert Spencer and others to advocate their agendas. More recently, the website published a number of articles attacking the family of Capt. Humayun Khan, who died while serving in Iraq, and accusing his father Khizr Khan of having "deep ties to the government of Saudi Arabia—and to international Islamist investors." Advocating for the Muslim immigration ban, which president-elect Trump suggested during his presidential campaign, the website called it an "'Extraordinary, Brilliant' Move" and published articles defending its constitutionality.

New York, NY, October 19, 2016 ... The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) Task Force on Harassment and Journalism today released a report detailing a troubling, year-long rise in anti-Semitic hate targeting journalists on Twitter, with data showing that the harassment has been driven by rhetoric in the 2016 presidential campaign and identifying some of the groups and individuals responsible

When I watched Idiocracy a few years ago I didn't realise it was a documentary.

Never been on the Daily Mail site - is this for real?


Just wait until you see his piece on "the intellectual fallacy at the heart of the professional racism-accusation movement" - it'll have you PC cucks frothing at the mouth!

I love people who use the word "fallacy" to try and win arguments - it proves they're really intelligent.


You may have just invented a new fallacy

Out of his depth and bitchslapped

You must be watching a different interview, IMO it was quite close but he maybe shaded it on points.  He definitely wasn't bitchslapped.*

*It saddens me that this is the case.
