===Anti-Racist Is A Code For Anti-White (Phrase)=== | ===Anti-Racist Is A Code For Anti-White (Phrase)=== | ||
"Anti-Racist is a Code Word for Anti-White" is a racist slogan that became popular among white supremacists in the mid-2000s. It is derived from a short essay commonly referred to as "The Mantra," popularized by long-time white supremacist Bob Whitaker. "The Mantra" attempts to rebut accusations of racism by claiming that people who profess to be anti-racist are actually trying to destroy the white race and that the term "anti-racist" is equivalent to "anti-white." Whitaker's followers have convinced themselves that if they simply repeat The Mantra, or the slogan derived from it, that they can somehow capture or reframe debates about racism. They frequently exhibit the slogan on signs and banners. | "Anti-Racist is a Code Word for Anti-White" is a racist slogan that became popular among white supremacists in the mid-2000s.

“Conquered, Not Stolen” is an anti-indigenous phrase that celebrates the colonial system and genocide implemented by European settlers. The phrase proposes that land should belong to a race or culture that last fought to conquer it. “Conquered, Not Stolen” is a chauvinistic statement intended to push back upon attempts by settler societies to push back upon attempts by settlers to confront, and reconcile with their colonial history by promoting genocide celebration and white nationalist interperetations of history. The phrase is also used to articulate the support for maintaining the privileged societal position of white European colonizers.

The Great Replacement/White Genocide is a theory that asserts that white or “Aryan” people are being eliminated through a variety of mechanisms, including non-white immigration and feminism. White genocide conspiracy theories have a long history in far-right circles and remains prominent today in white nationalist, white supremacist, and conspiracy theory movements. The Anti-Defamation League has accused several high-profile politicians and media personalities of invoking the Great Replacement, including [[Tucker Carlson]], who they relayed “explicitly promoted the ‘great replacement’ theory”. Though the conspiracy was spread for many years, an extension to the theory would be coined in 2011 by French white nationalist and conspiracy theorist [[Renaud Camus]], the Great Replacement was based on a variety of pre-existing racist theories and ideas. Proponents allege that the end goal of the Great Replacement is to “weaken” or ultimately destroy white families over several generations as they increasingly start interracial families. The premise of the Great Replacement relies on the concept of white people being of a single race and that ancestry from non-white ethnicities can exclude an individual from being white. Jews are often considered to be the perpetrators of the Great Replacement, but conspiracy theories adjacent to the Great Replacement sometimes blame other groups, including secretive world governments.[[File:Great_Replacement_for_Dummies.jpg|thumb|center|A meme | The Great Replacement/White Genocide is a theory that asserts that white or “Aryan” people are being eliminated through a variety of mechanisms, including non-white immigration and feminism.

Though the conspiracy was spread for many years, an extension to the theory would be coined in 2011 by French white nationalist and conspiracy theorist [[Renaud Camus]], the Great Replacement was based on a variety of pre-existing racist theories and ideas. Proponents allege that the end goal of the Great Replacement is to “weaken” or ultimately destroy white families over several generations as they increasingly start interracial families. The premise of the Great Replacement relies on the concept of white people being of a single race and that ancestry from non-white ethnicities can exclude an individual from being white. Jews are often considered to be the perpetrators of the Great Replacement, but conspiracy theories adjacent to the Great Replacement sometimes blame other groups, including secretive world governments.[[File:Great_Replacement_for_Dummies.jpg|thumb|center|A meme depicting white people gradually being replaced by black people, which is what the Great Replacement claims is currently happening in the world.]] | ||
