For years now, the only question worth asking about the Southern Poverty Law Center has been whether the SPLC had become a cynical grift for the radical left ⦠or a hate group itself. The latest findings from a investigation indicate its both.
The Justice Departments 11-count of the SPLC last week may have shocked the country. But it did not surprise anyone who has paid attention to the organizations long descent into alleged corruption â least of all those of us the SPLC slandered.
In 2014, the SPLC added me to their list of dangerous extremists, for the “hate crime” of being a Black, Christian conservative. They called me a bigot knowing that it was false and knowing that it would put my family and me in danger.
They knew that because two years prior, a gay-rights activist opened fire at the conservative Family Research Council after te SPLC falsely branded them a hate group. But the SPLC didnt care. Because â as we see now â SPLCs core business all along.
According to the indictment, the organization doled out more than $3 million to real hate groups like the Ku Klux Klan and the Nazi Party. They allegedly bankrolled the “imperial wizard” of the United Klans of America and one of the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Most Americans would call a supposed civil rights organization secretly financing White supremacist violence disgusting. To the SPLC, it was an investment. The following year, their revenues almost tripled from
What the indictment shows is that the SPLC is not an anti-bigotry organization at all. Its a . It profits off the leftist narrative of invisible “systemic” racism, rampant KKK terrorism and imagined violent homophobia. While the rest of the country recoiled in horror at what happened in Charlottesville, Va., the SPLC was secretly cheering.
Despite the SPLCs Cash for Klansmen program, the is the least racist country in the world. In the 21st century we are mostly living Martin Luther Kings dream of a colorblind society. Thats a tremendous achievement for a nation that had so far to come on that score in the last century.
In fact, there is so little bigotry in America today that the it. To hate-hustling grifters like the SPLC, moral progress poses an existential threat. If they ever admitted the truth, they would lose their money and their power. So, they perpetuate their lucrative lie.
Its the same scam the left has run for years now. Congressional Democrats knew “Russiagate” was a hoax before they impeached President for it. Liberal public health officials knew COVID-19 was a manmade virus leaked from a Chinese lab when they said it came from a food market.
They knew President was mentally impaired when they swore up and down he was sharper than ever. They knew Obamacare would kick people off their health insurance when they promised, “if you like your plan you can keep your plan.” They know unborn babies arent “clumps of cells.” And they know today that “trans women” arent women.
They lie about these things because they care more about power than they care about the truth. They cant beat conservatives in honest, good faith debate. So, they resort to weaponized rhetoric that demonizes dissent. They kept it up even after Trump survived multiple assassination attempts. And even after TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk didnt.
The out the lefts lies â they amplify them. So, the left will never stop lying on their own. They have to be stopped. That means holding leftists accountable when their lies cross the line from sins to alleged crimes. Thats what the Justice Departments SPLC indictment is about trying to figure out.
The protects dissent and debate. It does not protect fraud, or incitement or slander. The SPLC will have their day in court to decide where its actions landed.
Now that the president has survived yet another would-be assassination, disinfecting our national discourse of the lefts
