The dichotomy is real, and you are comparing apples and oranges.

Yes, there are white separatist paramilitaries operating within the United States who have cropped up in reaction to affirmative action and social justice, but it won't blow up the same way the black panthers did. It's apples and oranges, because today's U.S. white separatist paramilitary groups are not targets of the U.S. government. The FBI isn't assassinating members of the Aryan Brotherhood nor are politicians passing gun control laws to curb the flow of weapons into their territories. The U.S. government is not actively persecuting white supremacists. There is no COINTELPRO for white supremacists.

There is no escalation here, no conflict. Nazis get a free lunch in the U.S.
