Digital racism becomes translocal, unbounded from any single nation-state
Evidence
Cyberspace offers new possibilities but it also accelerates the long-standing tendency towards attrition and division within the neofascist movement.

These are the new territories of whiteness that exceed the boundaries of the nation-state, while supplanting ethnocentric racisms with new translocal forms of racial narcissism and xenophobia. — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 2584
