Seems like not all is uniformly white, over at the alt-white side of things. According to The Southern Poverty Law Center [splcenter.org], it makes a difference just what kind of white supremacist you are.

Attempts by the racist “alt-right” to recover from the stumbling block of August 2017’s disastrous Unite the Right rally have been dashed by several recent upheavals.

Chief among them, Richard Spencer’s anemic performance at Michigan State University at the close of his abortive college speaking tour, the collapse of the neo-Nazi Traditionalist Worker Party (TWP) after chairman Matthew Heimbach’s arrest and affairs and the doxing of white nationalist Twitter icon @Ricky_Vaughn99 amidst “the Great Optics War of 2018.”

Each incident underscores a singular, pervasive division among the far right that few are willing to deal with openly or frankly. Where the alt-right offered a sole unifying principle — the abstraction of white identity — it sought to overcome the vast gulf of wealth, privilege and education without ever addressing fundamental class differences.

Jesse Dunstan, cohost of the white supremacist “The Daily Shoah” podcast summed up the debate in a segment on April 13, 2018, where he referred to TWP as a "fraudulent and heretical 1.0 trap"

"Class war between us will not be part of that fight. The TWP, to KEK's displeasure, rested its ideology on class warfare rather than collaboration."
The alt-right’s recent stumbles are an inevitable byproduct of its attendant organizations’ failure to reckon with the sharp class distinctions separating its elitist, university-set leadership from its working-class base.

Well, the white supremacist class can kiss my ass, I've got the foreman's job at last? Big (white) Rock Candy Mountain, as in Whitefish Big Mountain? Or Trump's Hobo Paradise, where the dogs all have rubber teeth, and Mueller has no subpoena powers.
