    I’ve explained this as-nauseam, including in the message you’re replying to. If you still don’t know why that’s not my fault. Sorry you’re having trouble with this.

    Also, nice projection.

      You haven’t explained your reasoning why in any reply to me. I wonder why…

        I have been explaining in every comment in this thread, you’ve just been either choosing not to directly address it or you still don’t understand that my argument has been ignoring prevalence in favor of the logic of the comparison itself.

        I’ll keep going in this circle for as long as you want though.

          You claim to have a reason why but you won’t provide it. I wonder why that is.

              I am repeating myself because you won’t provide a reason why. If you did we could move forward.

                Nah, you’re just incapable of moving past the point that if not all white supremacists are racists then surely you must know of one you could use as an example, but you can’t, so your argument is unsubstantiated.

                Instead, you just want to focus on prevalence of white supremacy violence, which is such a strawman of the original point made but I’ve got you running in circles here because you can’t just admit it was a poorly thought out comparison to make.

                Still waiting for a single white supremacist you can use as an example of your argument. Otherwise you’re just asking me to take you at your word, or accept the strawman. I refuse to do either because that’s dumb.

                  That’s sort of an explanation but it requires you to misinterpret my original reply. White supremacists can be catorgized similarly to radical Islam, both are very rare, have no place in society, pose little to no threat to society as it is so rare, and are used as the bogeyman.

                    Gonna give you these:

                    • have no place in society
                    • used as the bogeyman

                    White supremacy + Islam are NOT “very rare”. About 2B people are Muslim, it is the second largest religion and the fastest growing. Racism has been around for about as long as we’ve been recording events, white supremacy is but one flavor.

                    If you mean radical Islam, what are you basing the word “radical” on, just so we can be clear about who it is we’re talking about?

                    I wouldn’t call white supremacy little to no threat to society either:

                    https://www.reuters.com/world/us/white-supremacists-behind-over-80-extremism-related-us-murders-2022-2023-02-23/

                    Violent attacks that can be directly contributed to white supremacy aside, the culture around white supremacy (at least in the US) is responsible for most of the racial discrimination and divide throughout the entire history of the country. So one could argue it’s been a massive detriment to society for generations.
