Why is it so hard for people to understand that one can have very conservative points of view and not be a White supremacist?  

On the flip side, I know a lot of people on the Left who are White supremacists (though they will never admit it, of course), in the sense that they view other races as inferior and unenlightened, thereby needing help from White people.  They, or, rather, many, fail to realize that their compassion, based on a sense of superiority stemming from White-privilege, ends up causing more harm than good.  I say "many," because I think that the Democratic party uses this sense of superior-compassion as a political tool to draw voters.
