  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.

      It only stands to reason that if you’re trying to compare the two and downplay the seriousness of white supremacy that is baked into our society, you should also be able to show a single example of a white supremacist who isn’t part of that problem.

      I argue racism is a much larger threat because it is pervasive throughout our society, and has already led to many more deaths injuries and unnecessary suffering from people going without adequate medical care, financial aid, housing, a well-paying job, or even basic decency in public because of how they look.

      You want statistics which are out there and available, I will not provide them until I first have an example of a white supremacist who is not a part of that problem before I do.

      If you don’t believe me because you don’t see it in the world then congratulations, you’re privileged enough for it to not be your problem. Myself, my family and friends live it every day. Just because I’m not linking an article with a conservative bend telling you as much doesn’t mean it’s not happening. It’s not my job anyway. Educate yourself on the struggles of your fellow citizens.

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

        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.
