The klan is still anti non-white organization. There are many factions of the american right, and klan just belong to the more explicitly white supremacist ones. The general right wing cares very much diversity despite complaining about it. They have so many minority based organizations and make a big stink about X ethnicity voters and how they love Trump and are tired of dems.

I know. I was mainly making commentary on how some from those groups who were historically marginalized by the old WASP groups now make common cause to attack new groups of vulnerable people.

My fear with the American right is them discovering the types of fascism that aren't as strictly/ explicitly racialist (Italian, Spanish, Portuguese), and adapting strategies for having a cultural "other" to persecute, rather than a racial one. That way they can broaden their appeal to a diversifying American electorate and more easily win power.
