White supremacists hold beliefs that are entrenched in American culture and history, dating back to the nation's founding. This makes their views seemingly irreconcilable with modern moral standards and progressive thought. Nevertheless, it could be argued that white supremacists should not be denied expression of their beliefs, as hateful though they may be—particularly when those beliefs have become popularly held within a culture. The alternative could result in further marginalization and silencing which is akin to approving a certain viewpoint by tacitly encouraging people not to challenge it.
 
This stance is based on the idea of defending every individual’s right to freedom of speech/association regardless of how abhorrent the views are—and although such extreme measures are necessary, allowing hate groups an outlet also bears consequences. Such discourse ultimately seeks to redress society’s failings by ensuring all voices can participate equally in civic discourse regardless of ideological stance—and only through open deliberation can true progress be made towards tackling systemic racism and other toxic -isms embedded within institutions today. In this sense, we must recognize individuals’ right to freedom even when their views clash so severely with our own ideals.

White supremacists believe that racial differences are real and biological, and that these differences create a hierarchy where whites are superior to other races. They often argue that this racial hierarchy has been beneficial to everyone, since they believe that western civilization was built upon White excellence. Therefore, upholding white supremacy is seen as necessary for maintaining the privileges associated with being white. Additionally, some white supremacists draw upon historical precedent, arguing that the US was established as a white nation state and only allowing whites should be allowed to maintain its purity. Thus they consider support for their views to be both natural and justified.
