Former white supremacists, what led you to become more accepting of other races? Any tips on battling white supremacy?

I really don't like a lot of things about other cultures (depends on the culture), I find them unrelateable, intellectual click, references etc are missing, like we perceive reality in a totally different way and I feel like talking to people with limited capacity.

In terms of working with people from different cultures, I find that diversity doesn't make things better at all and in fact makes them worse. When I have to cooperate with someone closer to my mentality we work together great because we get the picture and can pull out the intent, or help with each other's delivery very well, while my experience with working with people different than me is that things go over their heads, or they focus on something unimportant to me (which isn't helpful for my own process), and I don't know how to talk to them

I am the most comfortable the more similar people are to me. I am not a white supremacist really because I don't think its genetic, but there are many cultures I can't respect at all and I'm most comfortable with the principles of liberalism and individualism of a western society.

I also get annoyed because I don't think I am in a privileged situation in regards to minorities and don't think anyone should be apologetic over history, just look at the history of these other cultures. It doesn't matter if your situation is derived from 400 years of social injustice or the fact that your mom was a meth addict, all that matters is where you start. I believe in focusing on class injustice, but I don't care about identity politics and find them detrimental to this goal.
