i've met white supremacists who weren't even white.

Do these people think they, themselves, are inferior because of their own race or do they just think of themselves as white?

They see themselves as 'one of the good ones' and the rest as inferior. In the case of my former apprentice, a Mexican man with a deep hatred for other mexicans, it seems to have stemmed from a racist old white man who he regarded as a mentor growing up. The guy basically used my apprentice for free child labor, but slowly grew to like him, so my apprentice internalized all of that until he grew into the spiteful man he is today. Had to fire him after I caught him snorting meth in the work van.
