I don't see why you should be confused. You are not a rara avis if you had felt like one. The vast majority of the core members here at Stirpes feel pretty much the same as you. Or at least those who are Nationalist.

Nationalism lies first and foremost in the concept of ethnicity. And in the goal of preservation. The confusion arises from Rac[ial]ists who label themselves "white nationalists". Which is a swindle because no such thing as a "white" nations exists nor every "white" belongs to a defined nation, and in the reality they are simply white supremacists.

That is an American perversion that has polluted certain fringe groups in Europe. Much unfortunately, especially in the times that we are living. How it was introduced in Europe is another story.

For one thing, Rac[ial]ism defines a relation among different races, like anti-racism does, but along the lines of superiority and inferiority. This makes Rac[ial]ism most alien to Nationalism in Europe, since from the standpoint of the concept of ethnic nations, any relation between races comes only in the chapter of each nation's foreign affairs.

Along the ideal of Nationalism runs that of Europeanism (notice, not pan-Europeanism), which defines the relations between the sovereign nations of Europe, and a common idea of preservation of the ethnic diversity of the peoples of Europe.
