Firstly, I don't think there's a requirement in white nationalism to want other races dead. Certainly there are white nationalists who do want that, but I don't think it's a requirement. Surely wanting to empower your own race and have it embedded into the national identity would be the primary requirement, not whatever motives you've ascribed to it.

Anyway, it seems consistent to me that somebody who supports, on principle, a white nationalist identity could also sympathize with the struggle of others to achieve similar ends in their own countries, whether they are white or not. You can want certain kinds of migrants out of your country - or even just curbed in some way - without hating and wishing death upon their race generally. A 'not in my backyard' attitude of a sort.

To add to that, people are capable of holding complicated and nuanced views on complicated and nuanced matters, and that's not even accounting for the varying stages of propganda deprogramming - and information differentials - you'll see even within people who share a movement.

They are not obligated to become the caricature you need them to be.
