“both racist and heavily socialist.”
That is actually the norm for the vast majority of racist groups. As matter of fact, I can’t think of even one exception! Anti-capitalism and racism normally go hand in hand. The American KKK may not have been completely socialist, but its members normally embraced share-the-wealth-type of programs. They almost always voted on behalf of Democratic Party candidates when their own members were not running for office. And why should this be surprising? Most racists wish to lose their own identity and instead emphasize their group membership. One should occasionally visit an overtly racist website. You will quickly notice the sense of community and fellowship. A sense that “we are all in this together.”
