I checked in on this thread after reading this story but got distracted by the Fred B squabbling, but finally made it through to the end and this story is just ridiculous, isn't it? I watched the video of the dudes drinking milk at Shia TheBeef's installation and they just seem so pitiful. Like, the saddest wretches I could ever imagine. I don't think I could have less respect for anyone like I do these choads.

That Persian ethnonationalist I was talking about earlier said he's going to trace his racial origins, that he'd like to form a vigilante group to get rid of muslims to bring back his glorious culture.
He also wants people to do experiments on isis members for the research to create virtual utopias.
One minute he's saying typical nihilist things about there being no real value in anything and then extreme nationalist stuff.
He keeps getting banned, rejoins then deletes most of his statements.

I've found a guy who comments all the time on the FB posts of a reasonably high-profile (non racist, leftist) Portuguese author whining about Europe taking in refugees and such. Went to his profile and he combines a "Christian nationalist" ideology with generic alt right nonsense. Someone was expressing worries over how the Portuguese community will be treated post-brexit and he was stressing very strongly that there is no ill will against Portuguese in the UK, there's "residual anti-Polish feeling" but even that's not strong, it's all about the dreaded muslims. It's all so feeble - I wonder how many British white nationalists would even count Portugal as "white", let alone count Catholics as christians.

my impression is that white supremacists in 2017 aren't so discriminating about which european nations constitute "white"? obv that hasn't always been true.

Wasn't there images of a dating profile of a guy saying which groups of white were okay for him?

Circulating recently.

interesting. i'd like to see that. i think part of what happened regarding the whitening of the US (which many writers including Brodkin have noted occurred primarily in a context of a racial dichotomy) is that as these various ethnic groups became acculturated into whiteness they also lost their sense of individuated ethnic heritage. sure you have irish descendants and italian descendants who take their ethnic background somewhat seriously (ime much less so in the case of german descendants) but even then it's within this non-differentiated context of just blanket "european descent" (esp since anything more specific would probably start to exclude the whiteness claims of the only ppl who really take their own ethnic identities even partially serious). historically tho i think their racist forebearers would probably be disappointed to find that they give blanket supremacy to pretty much the entire continent. i was looking at this white supremacist meme twitter feed yesterday (lg&m linked to it) and some of the posts were 'celebrating' white Russia, Ukraine, Serbia, Spain, Slovakia, Romania, Bulgaria -- alongside more historical choices - Germany, Sweden, Netherlands, etc. i wonder if european white supremacism is still more picky and this is all purely an american phenomenon? we're generally considered among the most historical and geographically illiterate people in the world - maybe our white supremacists would be more bigoted if they even knew what the word Slav meant?

greater awareness of ethnicity in europe has the effect of undermining the utility of whiteness and more specific taxonomies are required - linguistic/cultural groups like anglo-saxon, haplotypes, religion, rural/urban, regionalism & ofc class. this is a big generalisation but I still see whiteness as a concept as having colonial origins and don't think it's been imported v comfortably or neatly into domestic life here, in a similar way to how I only feel 'british' abroad. but I know a lot of ppl from varied backgrounds feel similarly about racial identity

This is interesting because the current story on the Gamergate thread is about a prominent gamernerd Youtube duderino (several million followers apparently? never heard of him before this) who has been retweeting Steve King despite being himself the child of Iranian immigrants. There is enormous capacity for cognitive dissonance around race if the narrative of the day suits what you need it to do emotionally and ideologically.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aryan#In_Iranian_literature

I'm sure you know about this; Iran has a complex relationship with whiteness. A white supremacist child of Iranian immigrants is not as incongruous as other marginalized groups identifying with white supremacy (something that also happens).

ancap is so funny

There is a nontrivial difference between generalized White Supremacy and tangible policies and attitudes driven by white supremacy that are directly aimed at people not only of your ethnicity, but from your family's specific country of origin. One would think that even if you are on board with white supremacy as an overall ethos, you would balk at the bits specifically designed to keep people like you from existing.

IOW this dude is like a real-life version of Uncle Ruckus from The Boondocks cartoon and should be clowned for it

dude seems like a real catch

suspicious that he didn't include his height but otherwise i'm amazed he's single

he said "under 5'6"" so I think he did indirectly include his height

"Okay fine, I'm 2 inches tall."

Related to the whole Iranians-and-Aryanism thing, I recently interviewed an Iranian black metal artist who has some thoughts...

i mean who actually types out "7.75 inch penis"
