What a nationalist really is....yep a white one
The term white nationalist has become a slur, a term used to demonise people and to compare them to those that would seek the mass murder of a given ethnic or racial group. The reality is of course vastly different but it's been effective enough to shame many white people into acceptance and silence for they dare not create a ruckus amongst their peers and the wider society for fear of being castigated.
This contrast typically with reality ...I am a white nationalist...and other people I know are also white nationalists they just don't want to announce it but before someone you know becomes overly triggered by this statement it's important to break down what a white nationalist is. I am white by virtue of my race and unlike so many others I am not ashamed to be who I am, my white ancestors fought against tyranny, they toiled and died in poverty, they went through hardships.
I am a nationalist because whilst libertarians hold onto this idea that "we don't need government" and indeed there is a lot to be said for how continuous governments have displayed corruption, malevolence, wickedness and other forms of criminal behaviour, we inevitably want law and order, we want structure and control. Those that reject this would soon change their minds when these things they take for granted are no longer holding society together.
So then it comes down to the context of globalism versus nationalism. Do I want to retain and fight for the values, the culture, the identity of this country or do I want to fight in some kind of marxist fashion for "global leadership"? In a utopian world the latter would be preferred choice, but human nature is human nature and inevitably psychopaths will gravitate towards positions of control and authority.
We should of course look to limit governmental power, but yes, I am a nationalist and I am white. If ever there was time for a renewed sense of nationalism it is now.
As for Marx...this says it all
Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind.
