Not them, but it’s important to be aware that white supremacy is not only limited to white people. As tempting as it is, we trick ourselves by oversimplifying, and it’s just plain tactless to use racial insults (regardless of how one means it, what matters is how other people interpret it).

You can’t be racist towards white people, calling a bunch of racists ‘white trash’ is free game.
