You can be white or a nationalist. You can't be both. You know, you can't have a Black Caucus. You can't have a Taco night but the damn Mexicans will sell them to you.
It's hard to keep up. Maybe @Safety can explain it.

I would argue you can be a white nationalist, just not a white supremacist. The latter makes no sense for those who argue we are all unique but equal.

Why? And what is the big deal?
Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.
I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

I thought the big deal was misspelling furor.

Who did that?
Nationalist
There is nothing to explain, the thread speaks for itself. There is not one person on tPF that expected any different response on this topic by the ones participating in it. Some people directly defend people like Rep. King’s ideology, some try and deflect from outright defending it by attempting to obfuscate by saying it took 20 years for a party to finally realize King’s racism or attempt to deflect by invoking a whattaboutism to Democrats, then you have the decent people that show up to rightly condemn King’s rhetoric.
Wash, rinse, repeat.
“Conscientiously believing that the proper condition of the negro is slavery, or a complete subjection to the white man, and entertaining the belief that the day is not distant when the old Union will be restored with slavery nationally declared to be the proper condition of all of African descent, and in view of the future harmony and progress of all the States of America, I have been induced to issue this address, so that there may be no misunderstanding in the future”

I am asking those of you who see this as a big deal. It seems you are backing off.

What is the big deal? Don't you ever get tired of seeing everything as racist?
