It's usually the right wing Christian groups that are into this thing.
Yes, there have been
cults that have claimed to be based in Christianity that have advocated this type of "thing" as you put it.
Yes, there are plenty of white-power douchebags that identify themselves as Christian, but I don't remember the "kill all the black people" part of the Bible -- of course, I haven't read it all, its a long ass book. It could be in there with all the weird stuff in Deuteronomy like not wearing clothes made of more than one fabric, or wizards must be stoned to death, or people with broken noses can't go to church. I think there are some things in there about killing people who worship other gods and wiping out all the Egyptians or something.
Of course, the big thing about being a "Christian" is believing and accepting in your heart that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, the Son of God -- all that New Testament stuff. Jesus was pretty much "Love God and be nice to each other," mostly. Mass murdering other Christians doesn't seem very WWJD to me.
And, as far as I know, the United Methodist Church isn't advocating the mass murder of other Christians, or even non-Christians. I'm not aware of any recent missionary trips sponsored by the Southern Baptist Convention to go out and shoot groups of black people.
The Catholics... well, you never know with them... but I haven't heard any reports of any priests or bishops calling for a holy war against other sects of Christianity... at least, not recently...

You can't really argue that the majority of white, racist storm from front types aren't also conservative Christians
If I start the Cult of Male Virtue and Development, take Bang as our bible and Roosh as our Savior, worship the principal doctrines of Neomasculinity, tattoo the Symbol of Roosh on our backs, shoot up a ton of testosterone, chant "male-only spaces" 17 times, and then strike out to repel the War Against Men by mass murdering a bunch of random wymyns on the street... does that make me Neomasculine?
