Statement: "White people in America are currently subjected to something that is unfair. The extent of this unfairness is comparable to what Jews endured during the Nazi holocaust."

If you feel that the statement is not an example of extremism, do you think that people automatically associate statements like the above with extremism because they are a bunch of sheep who go along with the group and can't think for themselves?
Or do you think people associate statements about white genocide with extremism because they understand the statements, considered them, and think they are ridiculous?

Lately "extremist" seems to have become a word people inherently associate with dangerous or violent, so I'm not sure if the statement you quote there is extremist. Is a pious but pacifist muslim who really really really won't eat pork a "muslim extremist"?
It is extremely stupid. Its more like when people say that women are the primary victims of war, God exists, or anchovies should go on pizza. Its not inherently dangerous, evil or violent. Its just hilariously wrong.

So does that mean you do not think it is reasonable to consider someone an extremist just because they complain about white genocide?
If so, why do you think some people consider such statements extremist?

That, or everyone who isn't white.
I have a hard time calling this extremist--to me, extremist must be taking something to an extreme position but this is simply loony-bin. Whites are not suffering anything even related to what the Jews suffered so whether it is as bad makes no sense.
What if it's both? Would that break the interwebz?

Well Underseer has a point. Assorted right wingers complain about the left and feminists and black lives matter, comparing them to Nazis. Meanwhile, there are actual fucking Nazis. And there were.
Sure, and assorted illiberals complain about the right, MRAs, and Jordan Peterson, comparing them to Nazis. Things have become rather hyperbolic sir.

Underseer, you should call yourself Coudenhove-Kalergi from now on.

Well of course you're an extremist. But then we already knew that. Why are you pointing it out?

You snipped what I wrote. I wrote that there are actual fucking Nazis these days. And what Bill Maher calls Nazi adjacents. Don't give me "both sides."

No, that would just make a person who hates everyone. There's plenty of room for that on the internet.

And why should I do that? Please let me know the white supremacist take on this subject.
And why didn't you answer the poll yet?

The statement is not my statement.
The question is whether or not the statement is an example of extremism.
We have at least one person in this forum who thinks it is very unreasonable to find the above statement an example of extremism. He even posted a video suggesting that the only reason people find claims about white genocide to be examples of extremism is because we are sheep who go with the crowd and can't think for ourselves.
If only we were intelligent and informed like the white supremacists are, we would agree that white genocide is a major concern for our time.
Or so the argument in the video went. I found the video ridiculous, but I want to see how many other posters on this forum agree with the video.

Yes, one side includes actual Nazis with actual Nazi flags, Nazi chants, and acts of violence, but we criticize Nazis, which makes us the real Nazis. Because both sides.

Ah, there we go. Repo answered.
Why don't you tell us why complaints about "white genocide" are not examples of extremist sentiment?

The OP statement is ridiculous because it is delusional. No one in the USA today is experiencing what the Jews experienced under the Nazis. Duh.

The OP seems to think otherwise. I think he's absurd but that is his opinion.
