"We only investigate violence," Wray explained. "We don't investigate extremism. We don't investigate ideology. We don't investigate rhetoric. It doesn't matter how repugnant or abhorrent. In the past nine months, the FBI reports arresting as many domestic terrorists as those influenced by foreign terrorist organizations. Bernard Zapor, a retired agent for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, used to investigate white supremacists groups. He said that federal agents can go undercover or track extremists online. At the same time, Zapor said some mass shooters quietly plot, motivated by self-obsession and a desire for

infamy. Comments We need to be able to talk about actual White Supremacists when that is what is really going on. However, a number of antifa, racial power movements and LGBTq, and others are labeling whites as supremacists for the wrong reasons in other situations. One reason is if whites counter their narrative and stand up for themselves or say anything non-whites or LGBTq do not agree with. In addition, some whites might end up tough while in prison by needing to join a group out of protection from non-white groups. These are very complex subjects, so please refrain from using “white supremacists” loosely. We do want to hold any gangs or domestic terrorism fully accountable, no matter what skin color is behind it. Just because a white does not agree with you does not mean they are a white supremacist. Just because something is on SPLC does not mean it is correct, although we are including their info here. Immigrants can be behind some of the labeling of whites who support border protection. Try to find out who wrote an article on white supremacists, what other kinds of articles they have written, and how they have shown interest or bias across different strata. Watch for inflammatory language. True white supremacists might have low education, been raised in a narrow environment, were hardened in prison, have been abused or targeted in the military by enemy or so-called friendly non-whites and might be in a cult. Most gangs have a tie to drugs, includ. white supremacists. Part of the reason the behavior starts might be the feeling of no support over reverse-racism, including lack of responsiveness from police, social services, courts, attorneys and counselors, and even family. The more large corporations show non-white preference, the more it drives white self-protection, which can lead to white supremacy. The more other white endorse reverse-racist language and approaches by describing white protectionism as racist and abhorrent, the more it will drive white resentment, self-protection, and, again, possibly supremacy-types of behaviors where things get violent. Don’t put whites down when they voice concerns, but allow free speech and try for a balance between the groups. The more Democrats jump to conclusions that someone is a white racist and then acts judgmental, fearful, uses labels, etc. the more it can drive things deeper the other direction. The more they insist on brown, black and white LGBTq preference in hiring, the more it causes resentment and suspicion. The more American businesses insist on hiring illegal or marginally legal immigrants at the expense of Americans, including white ones, the more it drives up suspicion and resentment. These issues come from commonsense and should go without saying. The DEI programs from a white perspective seem tailored to keep out white heterosexuals from global corporate jobs. Letting in large numbers of illegal immigrants and giving them American jobs, benefits and services drives up serious resentments and makes it harder on similar looking populations already in the US. Gaslighting the replacement theory concerns of whites by merely calling it a conspiracy theory only drives up tension and suspicion among whites who believe that is what is going on. Watching your home towns and cities shift from being a mix to being brown and black also causes this concern over replacement. Having other whites gaslight this concern of replacement makes things worse. The gaslighting is serious. When you keep running up against reverse-racism and you keep getting gaslighted about it, you can be assured whites will figure it out and get mad after awhile. Those tensions build and build. Police and feds need more balanced ways of effectively responding to these white tensions other than acting like whites are ignorant and naughty children needing ostracizing, scolding or punishment.
