[47] I believe white supremacy as an ideology encompasses cultural, political and religious orientations. It can have multiple denominations, practices, and approaches. American white supremacy predates nazism and focuses on Blacks. With regards to racial tolerance in a society as a whole, defined as percentage of the population, nazism is zero tolerance while segreationism is subjugation but allows for an existing population. In Nazi Germany all Jews and Gypsies were first gathered into ghettos and their property seized, and then transported to concentration camps without regard to any factors. The target population disappears. Here, not only are some of the largest cities in the North displacing their Black populations but also in California the state has become a majority white race state with Blacks comprising of only approximately 6.2% of the total population. United States, Census Bureau, US Census 2010 Quickfacts, Selected for Mississippi, Texas, North Carolina and California, Washington DC: Department of Commerce, April 1, 2010, https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/MS,TX,NC,CA/PST045216. Segregrationism horribly subjugates and separates blacks but allows for an existing population. In the Deep South, black comprise from 11.8% to 37% of the population. United States, Census Bureau, US Census 2010 Quickfacts, Selected For Mississippi, Texas, North Carolina, and California. It’s get to the back of the bus in the Black section.

[53] For example, the US Census racial category definitions resulted in a super-majority “white alone” racial category population in California, that’s not actually all white. The truth is CA is well below the national average with respect to its Black population percentage than the rest of the United States, at 6%.
