Seems strangely connected to White Supremist.
Bwaaaaaaaaa only a idiot would go to a online dictionary to get the political philosophy of White Nationalists or for that matter any other group.
Now, I have explained before Dictionaries are not the place to go to find the real meaning or definition of any word....all they do is print what they think is the most common usage of the term.
Now how they determine that...I have never heard them say...but even if it were possible for them to know how most folks use a certain word ....that does not mean it is correct.
If you want the true origin and meaning a word or phrase you need to consult an etymologist.
etymonline is a
great resource for looking up specific
words. ... OED
access, which is the most in-depth and hardcore
etymology resource (if you can
get to it)
OED in case you do not know and you probably do not know is The Oxford English Dictionary which is the most scholarly recognized source for the etymology of words.
It has been around for hundreds of years and is recognized in the world of academia as the place to go to get the origins and meanings of words and phrases.
Since I am sure you do not have one ....at your fingertips...so to speak--I will help you.
The OED definition of White Nationalism... 'Advocacy of or support for the perceived political interests of the white population within a particular country, especially to the exclusion or detriment of other racial and ethnic groups.'
Yet....you also need to understand that any political philosophy no matter which one --has different groups or wings in the movement...thus you will find democrats who have different understandings of what the democratic party entails or advocates or should entail or advocate or how to define it. The same with Republicans or any other political group or movement.
Ask a question on here like....What is Fascism....and you will get a hundred or more different explanations or definitions.
Thus whilst the OED definition will give you a good place to start to get some understanding of White Nationalism....but if you really want to get down to it....research how some in the movement or the leaders of the movement explain it.
For anyone who honestly wants one of the best explanations available for White Nationalism...https://www.amren.com/commentary/2018/11/the-white-nationalist-manifesto/
