Quite so. Racial hatred both requires and fosters malignancy of the soul. Leading someone away from attachment to such evil is difficult and much to the credit of anyone who undertakes it.

I just don’t understand why a dwindling group of racists is worth so much outrage and print

Although the Klan is just a tiny shadow of itself from the old days, the left needs groups like the Klan around to keep the racial narrative going.

The narrative states, among other things, that while there's white racists anywhere in the country (no matter how small their numbers), blacks and other minorities just can't get ahead. Those few hundred Klan members and Aryan Nation members make it well nigh impossible for black people to get ahead. Yeah, it's a big joke.

It is estimated that membership is around 5,000 or less.

Half of those left are either Federal informants or related.
