White Nationalist is just the PC term for White Supremacist.  White nationalists would like a 'White Nation' - ie: only White people.  Other-colored people are welcome to set up their own other-colored nations.

Well, they'll probably have better restaurants.

Nationalism generally involves a country, not a colour.  I think I'm an English nationalist, (but it might just be Yorkshire) and I'm white.  Does that make me a white nationalist?

?  I don't care.

But I'm sure you'll support the White Spot.

I'll support their right to make food, even though I might not eat it myself.

Now we're getting somewhere.

Good one though...

That is exactly my point.  That to some, support for freedom of speech implies support for the speech.

And so where does bouncy boy come down with regard to supporting marching down the street screaming racist comments against Jews, while wearing Nazi paraphernalia?

Fully support their right to do it, as long as no laws are broken.

Whether or not I support the laws, if they are broken, is another matter.  It depends on the country.  I prefer the US laws to Canada's.

I kind of prefer that we have hate speech laws here in Canada. Helps to keep brain dead bigots from inciting violence.

I fully support laws against inciting violence.  Even those that prevent inciting violence against white supremacists.  You?

I daresay I don't either, now that you come to mention it.

I wasn't really sure what a straw man argument is and I decided to look it up.

Lo and behold, there was Lindsay Shepherd's video!

I think she rejects the leftism that inhabits most of her fellow students at university.  It's a new kind of leftism, or maybe just further to the left getting into far left territory.  Intersectional identity politics progressives or something of the sort.

I think I speak for a good portion of lefty progressives when I say "Bye Felicia!"

A few things about her have been pointed out:

Not many leftists call themself leftists

Not many leftists feel the need to point out the difference between white nationalism and white supremacism
What a weird statement. White nationalism is an aspect of white supremacism. It stems from the notion that inferior races are the root of society's problems and that we must ship them out of our "white" countries, so that we can live in a utopia that never has and never will exist. The Nazis took it a step further and decided to exterminate the "inferior" races.
