Keep telling yourself that, but it's all just a veneer over the same toxic, exclusionary, and racist bullshit.

> Imagine calling jews who want to have their own country in Israel "jewish supremacists".

Jews wanted to have their own country because of thousands of years of persecution by basically everyone, everywhere, after they were driven out of their own home. When that happens to white people, I'll accept your argument.

Well, scholars believe the Barbary pirates enslaved around 1.2 million whites during the time they were active.

I mean, if you go back far enough basically every identity group has been on the receiving end of something terrible done by some other group. If that's all it takes for separatism to be legitimate and praiseworthy then more or less anyone could argue they deserve their own ethno-state.

>exclusionary

Aren't you arguing for banning them, though? You can't have it both ways.

which would never have happened if they had been separatists in the first place. it took thousands of years to figure it out.

But you're saying that after persecution its no longer "toxic, exclusionary, and racist bullshit"? That illogical and steeped in slave morality. persecution is not a currency.
