But....who will render moral judgment upon the masses now?

Post by LittleRaven »

Is no Ivory Tower secure?
On March 14, the Southern Poverty Law Center, the left-liberal civil rights nonprofit group known for its conspicuous wealth and ever-expanding lists of right-wing “hate” figures and organizations, abruptly fired 82-year-old Morris Dees. Dees, an Alabama lawyer, is the man who founded the SPLC in Montgomery in 1971 and built it into a fundraising powerhouse with assets approaching $500 million. Not long after his departure, President Richard Cohen and legal director Rhonda Brownstein, both of whom have been at the center since 1986, resigned.

The SPLC hasn't said much about the three departures, especially that of Dees, whose profile, though not photos, it scrubbed from its website. News media reported allegations of sexual harassment and racial and gender discrimination that had circulated on in-house emails. New female members of staff had allegedly been warned repeatedly about overtures from the five-times-married Dees. The SPLC’s highest-ranking black woman, senior attorney Meredith Horton, had resigned, and according to the Los Angeles Times, other female staffers had signed letters protesting office mistreatment and discrimination.

So you're enjoying the schadenfrued because the people who keep tabs on anti-gay groups and the white power community are losing some of their top brass?

It doesn't list Antifa as extremist, but lists groups that have been far less violent. A loss for SPLC is a victory for real justice.

I'm sorry I'm not sure how Antifa relates to hate groups? Asking why they don't track Antifa is a bit like asking why NRA doesn't campaign for food and drug safety.

Because they are perfectly willing to beat up people they SUSPECT to be far right in the middle of the street as if they are the Punisher? Whenever someone asks this it is immediately obvious they have looked no further than propaganda into how this group operates.

And you've not explained how they are a hate group. Because that's what SPLC tracks.

And? While there is certainly overlap between the two terrorists and hate groups aren't the same thing.

Because they basically hate everyone they consider to be the right of them on the political spectrum.
