Miller does not converse along a wide range of topics in the emails. His focus is strikingly narrow \u2013 more than 80 percent of the emails Hatewatch reviewed relate to or appear on threads relating to the subjects of race or immigration. Hatewatch made multiple attempts to reach the White House for a comment from Miller about the content of his emails but did not receive any reply.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Miller\u2019s perspective on race and immigration across the emails is repetitious. When discussing crime, which he does scores of times, Miller focuses on offenses committed by nonwhites. On immigration, he touches solely on the perspective of severely limiting or ending nonwhite immigration to the United States. Hatewatch was unable to find any examples of Miller writing sympathetically or even in neutral tones about any person who is nonwhite or foreign-born.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Miller is the architect of Trump\u2019s deportation system, which includes what amounts to concentration camps,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_immigrant_detention_sites_in_the_United_States\">with over 73K detainees in 225 facilities<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/immigrantjustice.org\/research\/policy-brief-snapshot-of-ice-detention-inhumane-conditions-and-alarming-expansion\/\">most of them in privately held for-profit prisons under inhumane conditions<\/a>.

Notably, \u201cThe Camp of the Saints\u201d is popular among white nationalists and neo-Nazis because of the degree to which it fictionalizes the \u201cwhite genocide\u201d or \u201cgreat replacement\u201d myth into a violent and sexualized story about refugees.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The novel\u2019s apocalyptic plot centers on a flotilla of Indian people who invade France, led by a nonwhite Indian-born antagonist referred to as the \u201cturd eater\u201d \u2013 a character who literally eats human feces. In one section, a white woman is raped to death by brown-skinned refugees. In another, a nationalist character shoots and kills a pro-refugee leftist over his support of race mixing. The white nationalist Social Contract Press plucked the 1973 book from relative obscurity and distributed it in the United States.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Stephen Miller, immigration isn\u2019t the issue.
