"Demolished or Taken Over"

He was not only a leader of racial politics but also a product of them. His father, Don Black, had created Stormfront, the Internet’s first and largest white nationalist site, with 300,000 users and counting. His mother, Chloe, had once been married to David Duke, one of the country’s most infamous racial zealots, and Duke had become Derek’s godfather. They had raised Derek at the forefront of the movement, and some white nationalists had begun calling him “the heir.”

Now Derek spoke in Memphis about the future of their ideology. “The Republican Party has to be either demolished or taken over,” he said. “I’m kind of banking on the Republicans staking their claim as the white party.”

[...]

“Years from now, we will look back on this,” he said. “The great intellectual move to save white people started today.”

(With a peek at the incestuous coloring of the white nationalists.)

Maybe Trump's bunch are trying to demolish the GOP since they weren't able to take it over. At any rate, this is a very interesting article about a young man who evolved from "the heir" to the white nationalist movement.  He now says, "It’s scary to know that I helped spread this stuff, and now it’s out there.”

Read the whole thing.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
