The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) defines itself on its web page as a nonprofit legal advocacy organization that is dedicated to fighting hate and bigotry and to seeking justice for the most vulnerable members of our society. This group monitors the activities of domestic hate groups and other extremists and creates a list of these hate groups which is widely disseminated throughout the country.
The premise of fighting hate and advocating for both equality and respect among one another is definitely a noble cause. However, the Southern Poverty Law Center has perverted this premise and has become the self-appointed authority of hate, discrediting and destroying all those who they deem unacceptable. They have become both the judge and jury on all groups, people, and beliefs in the country, without checks or balances to review their mandates. Plus, the criteria by which they judge groups is based upon a far-left leaning, ant-American agenda. In addition, their hate group list is blindly accepted by the media, without much investigation as to how or even why it was created.
I am not saying that certain groups do not deserve to be on the list. What I am saying is what gives one self-appointed, unelected, and unchecked group the right to create the list and essentially destroy anyone on it? In essence, hasn’t that made them a hate group?
To prove my point, I have compiled a list of reasons why The Southern Poverty Law Center should be discredited (sources cited at the bottom):
The SPLC’s main role is as a massively funded propaganda smear machine. It collected over 54 million dollars just in 2014
The SPLC consistently fails to declare left-wing (and sometimes violent left-wing groups) like Antifa as hate groups. In fact, it even described Antifa as “freedom fighters” and a “constructive force”
The SPLC employs left wing radicals such as Matthew O’Dea, a Communist Antifa gang member who endorses political violence and promotes hate
The SPLC lists anyone who speaks out against the homosexual agenda, mass immigration, or Islamic terrorism as a hate group
The SPLC unjustly labels any group as hate groups if it disagrees with any of its far-left political agenda. For example, the Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) is an organization that advocates for legal immigration and against illegal immigration and has been deemed a hate group by the SPLC. Another example is how the SPLC labeled ProEnglish a hate group because it advocates for laws which would solidify English as the official language of the US
The SPLC is a liberal activist group and consistently quotes and refers to far-left blogs, including Media Matters, Mother Jones, Huffington Post, Think Progress, and Right Wing Watch as their sources of reference
The SPLC targets right leaning groups and even labeled Dr. Ben Carson under their “Extremist Files” list
The SPLC ignores left-wing violence such as that committed at UC Berkley when Milo Yiannopoulos was scheduled to speak, or when Antifa attacked patrons at a restaurant in Tinley Park, Illinois, where a conservative organization was holding a conference.
The SPLC wants to silence free speech by unjustifiably labeling conservative, nationalist, and Christian organizations as hate groups
The SPLC claims there are over 1000 hate groups in America but consistently lists the same ones over and over in order to create a list much larger than actually exists. Plus, many groups on the list don’t even exist are now defunct.
The SPLC created false headlines such as the GOP is now a “white nationalist party” to propagate its far-left agenda
The Center’s Work Has Incited Violence such as the shooting at The Family Research Center after it was labeled a hate group
In 2015, the organization spent $20 million on salaries, but only spent $61,000 on legal services. Yet, the SPLC is supposed to be an organization safeguarding against hate
The FBI Stopped Citing SPLC as a Resource
Its Nonprofit Status Masks Highly Political Fundraising
SPLC has an “anti-Muslim” category of hate group, but no anti-Christian category
It’s a highly partisan left-wing propaganda machine
One of the SPLC’s goals is to delegitimize President Trump
Morris Dees, the founder of the SPLC, is a con man, whose aim is to make as much money as possible, by any means necessary
As Hillary Clinton fortunately lost her presidential bid, it is necessary to take a good look at her record in order to gain a glimpse of how she would have performed as the president. Her long list of failures let’s us appreciate how close America was to electing one of the biggest thugs and failures into office.
List of Hillary Clinton Failures:
Gave Russia a reset button which reset cold war
Lack of a coherent plan to address the Arab Spring
Deteriorating relations with Israel
Assessment of Bashar al-Assad (whom she labeled a “reformer”)
Cluelessness that withdrawal of U.S. forces in Iraq would give the radicals a foothold
Benghazi scandal
Lack of bringing to justice the jihadists who killed our 4 Americans
Victory lap on Osama bin Laden giving a false impression of al-Qaeda’s decimation
Blindsiding the Israeli prime minister with a public declaration of U.S. policy on “1967 borders”
Backing Hugo Chavez’s candidate in Honduras rather that the middle and business classes’ choice (who was also pro-American)
Relaxation of Cuban sanctions followed by Alan Gross’s imprisonment
Surprising Poland and the Czech Republic by pulling out anti-missile sites
Embracing Hosni Mubarak (calling him a family friend) just when pressure was needed to prevent what ultimately became his overthrow
The lack of a cogent approach to the Middle East
Failing to take decisive action in Syria before jihadists poured into the country
The decision to overthrow President Gaddafi in Libya
Downplaying human rights, especially with China
Failing to robustly support the Green Revolution
Engagement of Iran and foot-dragging on sanctions, allowing Iran to reach the cusp of a nuclear weapons capability
Announced “pivot” to Asia without carrying through
Erased email server
Clinton cash
Maintaining the status quo with Pakistan
Lied to FBI and to Congress
Creator of ISIS by pulling out of Iraq too quickly despite military recommendation not to
Called Trump Supporters “Basket of Deplorables”
When directly asked what her accomplishments were as Secretary of State, she answered (Direct Quote):
“My accomplishments as Secretary of State? Well, I’m glad you asked! My proudest accomplishment in which I take the most pride, mostly because of the opposition it faced early on, you know… the remnants of prior situations and mindsets that were too narrowly focused in a manner whereby they may have overlooked the bigger picture and we didn’t do that and I’m proud of that. Very proud. I would say that’s a major accomplishment.”
Remember America, you get what you vote for.
