>The premise of replacement theory is that "the elites" are willfully and actively conspiring to replace white people, culturally and politically, with non-whites and eventually render the white race extinct. That they're doing it on purpose. Meeting in dark, smoke-filled rooms and planning it out.

Which is exactly what they are doing. Because culturally whites have expected to not live in poverty for four generations. If we went back to the British culture of the Victorian era, 12 kids in a one room house, the people in the dark smoke filled rooms would be the most white nationalist people on the planet. Like they were in the Victorian era.
