My impression is that Usul was interested not only in your opinion about racial IQ variations, but also in where your information comes from.
He didn't call you a Christian Identity white supremacist, he said this discussion reminds him of arguing with Christian Identity white supremacists. Those are very different things.
(You don't seem particularly like a Christian Identity white supremacist to me, for what it's worth. I think Usul is thinking too impressionistically.)
My impression is that Usul is interested in neither of those things as he clearly went into snide mode.
Let me quote him with the relevant part bolded:
Instead of calling me a nutcase waiting for the Rapture while sitting in an Idaho bunker surrounded by beans and ammo, he's just being passive-aggressive.
Going into snide mode is quite consistent with still wanting to understand the other guy's position and where it came from.
My impression is that "it" wasn't meant to mean "the Christian Identity movement" but "racial prejudice".
