My brother is a white supremacist.

So long story short, my brother is a white supremacist. And I'm not. Not sure how to get him to understand that I'm not really fond of his talking, while keeping peace.

My brother has high functioning autism and race is a special interest of his. In the past few days he's been telling me about how Jewish people rule the world and how he feels nothing for people living in Muslim majority countries, I can easily presume because of their race. He says "Muslims are taking over Europe." he says that Jewish people have disproportionately had more power for thousands of years.

I'm poking and prodding into this conversation over text with him to see all that he thinks. I tried to press a bit on black people and lantinx people. But he's keeping quiet on that. Mostly because he's so fixated on Jewish people. But I'm pushing really hard because he has a girlfriend who is a first generation immigrant to the US.

He won't say he supports Trump, he think thinks the Epstein shit is all at the hands of the Israeli government. But I think he's secretly MAGA because I think he wants this nation to be white and supports ICE sending non-white people out of the US.

At the same time he tells me that he's against right wing Christians in the US because of their bond with Jewish people and Israel. He's using sweeping generalizations of Jewish people, saying they are the most hateful race in the world.

On top of it he's anti LGBT because he says it leads to systemic pedophilia.

I'm really frustrated and kind of just done with all of his beliefs and his willingness to share it all with me as if his views aren't deplorable. The worst part is that he really is extremely intelligent. He just has a fixation in race and found himself on the wrong websites as a young adult and is now 35 still holding these beliefs.

I personally think that he is someone that white supremacists and conspiracy theorists have taken advatanage of. I don't think he had any way of truly understanding that these far right beliefs are opinions made on generalizations or just plain fallacy.

With this sort of ethnic cleansing type beliefs, I often wonder if he thinks that I am lesser or should be culled because I am mentally ill to the point of being on disability.

I don't know how to get it across to him that what he believes is wrong. Or how to get the rest of my family to understand why I'm uncomfortable with him.

I feel like I have to do or say something, but I dont know what to do. He doesn't seem like a safe person. And I don't want my child to be around him much. But my family is already broken up. I live with my mom and she adores my brother. I can't just cut ties or anything. But politics and race are my brothers top special interests in life and I don't know how to escape it. I don't think I could ever change his mind without becoming like a professor with all the knowledge and study it would take to show him facts that only might change his mind.

Should I do anything at all? How should I go about keeping my child away from him while keeping the peace? How to I at least tune out the nazi style hatred that my brother loves?

Part of this post is just venting but I really don't want to be around him and I don't know how to beat do that.
