No, it usually isn't. It is usually used to talk about white supremacists of a particular ideological bent.

"White supremacist" is also a slur against nationalists...


It is possible to be a white nationalist and not be a white supremacist, but there is considerable overlap between these groups.

This argument can only be made in good faith if you completely ignore the events of the past 5 years, where anyone who was outspoken but didn’t tow the CNN/neolib line on just about any of the big issues was either directly or indirectly called a fascist or a neo-Nazi. Regularly.


It's perfectly possible to be a fascist without being a neo-Nazi.

And CNN doesn't set policy or make people say fascist things.
