      I’ve already shown that the existence of a good white supremists does not change the threat white supremacy poses to society.

          You haven’t shown how the comparison between Muslims and white supremacists is even a valid one to make

          I have, but you keep insisting I need to provide a good white supremists and/or falsely claim that I said there was a good white supremists.

          When you are assessing a threat the number things that are not a threat is not relevant. Muslims are not a threat because there are few incidents where Muslims were a threat, white supremists are not a threat because there are few incidents where white supremists are a threat.

              you should also be able to show a single example of a white supremacist who isn’t part of that problem.

              You still have not given any reason why a good white supremists would make white supremacy less dangerous.

              I argue racism is a much larger threat because it is pervasive throughout our society

              It’s not pervasive. Further you need to show racism is the same thing as white supremacy if you plan on using racism as a stand in for white supremacy. You even have said white supremacy is rare.

              You want statistics which are out there and available, I will not provide them

              You can’t provide them, the only statistic you provided showed white supremacy murders were rare.

              It’s not my job anyway. Educate yourself on the struggles of your fellow citizens.

              Another excuse to not defend your position.

                  The fact that you actually responded with this tells me you _still _ can’t see past your own privilege to recognize my point was comparing Muslims to White Supremacists is an apples and oranges comparison unless you can show that there is a portion of white supremacists that, like Muslims who do not interpret their faith’s message to justify violence, do not interpret white supremacy as a justification for racism.

                  I’ll take that to mean that you concede that a good white supremists would not make white supremists less dangerous to society.

                  The whole point of comparing things is to highlight how they are different and the same. Apples and oranges are fruits… see different things can be compared.

                  You either can’t understand why that’s a dumb comparison, or you’re refusing to admit it’s a dumb comparison. Either way it’s what’s causing us to keep this thread going. It’ll stop when you want it to.

                  I asked a question about how you treat other rare occurrences, you falling for the propaganda seems to be the answer.

                  the entirety of western society and the way it operates has roots in racism and white supremacy. White supremacy is a form of racism. I’ve already spelled this out multiple times and there is no way to be clearer about it. I’m beginning to think you’re just not capable of understanding.

                  What does that have to do with white supremacy being prevalent now? Does that mean I can judge current Muslims by what Muslims did in the past?

                  gestures wildly at modern society

                  But can’t provide examples.

                  Defend your comment, then I’ll defend mine. Otherwise it’s just obvious you didn’t have a follow up and are just trying to claim superiority in this thread. Not gonna happen without backing up your statement.

                  I have backed up my statement a good white supremists doesn’t make any acts by white supremists less rare. The “good guys” are not important when looking at bad things.
