There is no denying that white supremacy is an engine of the right.

There are some Republican voters who are sympathetic to their party’s ultranationalist turnand don’t believe the party’s attitudes toward issues such as immigration and crime are the products of racial animus. But over and over again, right-wing leaders and thinkers reveal that white supremacism is an engine of this movement.

The latest example comes via an episode of “The Tucker Carlson Show” released this week, in which the former Fox News host interviews podcast host and newsletter writer Darryl Cooper. Carlson, arguably the most influential right-wing nationalist commentator in America, said Cooper “may be the best and most honest popular historian in the United States.” But Cooper has made clear that his intellectual project regarding World War II includes Holocaust revisionism.

        I read that. I mean the total that we’re only killed because they were Soviets and not for any other reason, ethnic, sexuality, etc.

          And this is the only way you can find anything out?

          Asking random people on social media?

          It’s taken two hours so far, this is faster than you googling?

          Are you not able to?

          If it’s that you do t know how or are so bad at it that this is faster. Have you tried asking nicely? May e I cluding “please”?

          I just don’t understand what the point is in what you’re doing here…

        That link cites the holocaust museum defining the holocaust as the extermination of the Jews.

        That quote seems to “benignly” recast the holocaust and eliminate over half of the deaths. Even with POWs excluded.
