Branding your opponents as “Birchers” is an old and honorable tactic of statists. What the Birchers are, were, or become is completely irrelevant. It is a form of duck speak.

QUACK QUACK BIRCHERS QUACK QUACK RACISTS QUACK QUACK.......

This Report explains why senior FBI officials (including FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover) came to the conclusion in FBI memos that the Birch Society was “extremist”, “irrational”, “irresponsible”, “fanatics”, and “lunatic fringe.”

Was this the same J. Edgar Hoover that denied the existence of the Mafia for decades and called those who warned about organized crime, including his own agents, "conspiracy theorists".

"I have in mind that I was originally advised by Rosen that the Mafia or anything like it in character never existed in this country. I have been plagued ever since for having denied its existence." J. Edgar Hoover, Dec. 30, 1970.
