white nationalist
Ethnostate ideology follower
A white nationalist advocates for a nation defined by white racial identity, typically seeking to establish or preserve a white ethnostate.
The term overlaps with white supremacist but emphasizes political separatism over explicit claims of superiority—a distinction critics consider cosmetic.
White nationalist groups have grown more visible online.
