White supremacy a "Cult"

Would u consider White Supremacists a Cult or any other radicals related similar to this a cult?

Most white supremacists are self identifying Christians, so yes. They are members of the christian cult of personality.

Otherwise, no. people will often throw around the word "cult" all willynilly and often apply it to situations that are not necessarily "correct", but aren't exactly wrong either. Like, for example, Hitler. I've often heard people identifying the Nazi party as a "cult of personality" BUT that's really just a way of hyperbolizing the reverence with which Hitler was treated by his underlings, it's not meant to be taken literally. I would say the same of white supremacy for the most part.

Now, if we're talking a 'dear leader' type situation like in North Korea where your leader is assigned a sort of 'supernatural' origin, you could probably make a pretty convincing argument for it being a cult.

hope that helps

white supremacists aren't a cult, but there are white supremacist groups that are cults such as the group that resides in elohim city in oklahoma

I think they would qualify more as "terrorist groups" than "cults", if we are talking about gangs.

How does this fit in with organised crime?

White supremacist groups is a blanket term but if you break it down to specific groups, some could be considered OC. At least that's what sons of anarchy taught me. I've personally never seen a white power group in real life but I hear they exist out west in bigger numbers.
But while we're on this topic, who thinks the nation of Islam is a cult? If you really read about their beliefs outside of the race stuff they seem as crazy as scientologists..

This is wHat I think of the national of Islam where do they buy their bow ties. I hope they own their own tie stores.

They are prejudiced against white people aren't they?

I suppose one can use that in some why. Especially if your willing to pay them for a service.

I certainly wouldn't say they are all "Christian" groups. Maybe some- KKK for example ID themselves with Christianity but I doubt they really believe it or practice it.

White supremacists have as much to do with Christianity as suicide bombers have to do with Islam. It's just an excuse to justify their actions.

There are many nonchristians within the -movement-.......

while it is not a cult it is extremely fragmented with many groups led by a leader with a few dozen followers. Many chiefs and few -Indians-.

NOI is not a cult, it's just a radical political group. Yeah, a lot of their beliefs are just nuts and based on outright historical fallacies (like some of them believe the vikings were black - I'm not sure WHY they would want to lay claim to a group of violent marauders and rapists, but hey, that's their prerogative).

Any supremicist group of any race, religion or idoelogy is de facto idiotic.
