It's the linguistic erasure of a concept by obliterating words for it. It's also why there's no gradient between a self-loathing White person and a White supremacist. All terms in between those two extreme ends of the spectrum have been eradicated from public consciousness because there's no vocabulary with which to describe them. If you aren't a terminal self-hating White who wants to terminate yourself on the altar of social justice then you must be turbo mecha-Hitler come to kill everyone.
Even if we ignore that White supremacists basically don't exist by any reasonable definition -- The fact is that there legitimately are African/Black supremacists, Jewish supremacists, Asian supremacists, Hispanic/Latinwhatever supremacists who are 100% real and yet not at all pariahs in polite society. More often than not, they're treated like heroes.
I'm not sure why I should uniquely hate such "Supremacists" only when it's White people expressing their in-group preference.
