      I think that you maybe meant 1 out of 7 instead of 7%?

      That said, being white is not the same as being a white nationalist. They are extremists and a minority withing the white population

      It’s nationalism (the idea that different peoples deserve their own separate countries) with the people in question being white people. It manages to combine the most problematic aspects of nationalism such as its propensity to drive governments to commit countless atrocities with the most problematic aspects of whiteness as an identity. In short, it’s modern naziism.
