Southern Poverty Law Center and Hate

Splcexposed.com. Write that site down and visit it often.

It reveals how the radical Left is trying to destroy organizations and individuals who are working to defend America’s families and our civil society.

Splcexposed.com specifically reveals the agenda of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), an extreme Leftist operation that is swimming in money and deception.

Masquerading as a benevolent organization, the SPLC has adopted the intelligence and vocabulary of the big bully on the playground who engages in name-calling in order to isolate and intimidate anyone who won’t join his wicked little cabal.

You know the drill. The Leftists always resort to the “nanny, nanny boo boo” strategy when they know they can’t win a debate on the merits.

“Sexist! Racist! Bigot! HATER!” they scream.

SPLC has institutionalized the idiotic practice of name-calling and now is known for its well publicized list of so-called “haters.” But it is much more dangerous than the childish bully as they increasingly use mob-like tactics to blacklist and vilify those on the right who are among the most successful at preserving and protecting Judeo-Christian values and the Constitution.

The SPLC’s incendiary tactics have spawned at least two acts of shocking violence, the most recent being the attempt to mow down Republican congressmen on a baseball field, critically wounding House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, whom the SPLC had profiled on its website.

Previously, a radical Leftist gunman entered the building of the Christian ministry Family Research Council and shot a building manager who miraculously still succeeded in disarming the thug before he could massacre the FRC staff. Now in prison, the domestic terrorist admitted that he targeted the ministry because the Southern Poverty Law Center had listed FRC as a hate group.

Founded in 1971, ostensibly to fight evil organizations like the KKK, the Southern Poverty Law Center marched ever further to the Left and figured out over the years that it only had to do one simple thing to defeat legitimate organizations and silence debate: list their political enemies as haters too.

The tactic is incredibly effective because 1) most Americans don’t look beyond the headline and see what people really stand for, 2) no one wants to be associated with a “hater,” and 3) the mass media, who are part of the ignorant bully’s sick little club, gleefully spread the lies far and wide.

The SPLC, vitriolic Leftist politicians and their media minions are engaged in an all-out war of lies on those who believe in free-market principles, that marriage is between one man and one woman, and that gender is part of our DNA.

And, boy, are they raking in the big bucks in the process. The SPLC is uber rich. In fact, its coffers have more than $320 million, much of which is stashed in off-shore accounts. Read that sentence again and tell me if it makes any sense for an organization that claims to be a champion for the poor.

In the description of their programs, the SPLC doesn’t focus on reducing poverty, putting food into the mouths of hungry children, or training the underprivileged in skills that can help them land jobs.

It does, however, talk a lot about its “three-pronged strategy to battle racial and social injustice.” But what does that include?

The first prong is “Fighting Hate.” It alone decides what constitutes “hate,” which it has chosen to be nothing more than disagreeing with the Leftist political agenda.

The second prong is “Teaching Tolerance.” In practice, that means brainwashing children into a extremist worldview by partnering with public schools to use SPLC teaching materials. (For example, on the SPLC’s website dedicated to “tolerance,” it instructs educators to “Teach the facts about sex assigned at birth, sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression, and learn how to advocate for LGBT youth.”)

The third prong is “Seeking Justice.” And what does it highlight in its definition of “justice?” Of course, socialistic economic policies.

And in recent years, its Intelligence Project has been “monitoring and exposing the activities of anti-LGBT hate groups that disseminate demonizing propaganda.” The chief vehicle for its expose is its quarterly magazine, The Intelligence Report, self-described as a “periodical monitoring the radical right in the U.S.”

And there you have it. The SPLC wields its right of free speech like a club, bludgeoning the those who seek to debate ideas in the public square. It is nothing more than an activist, Leftist operation fostering civil unrest and the destruction of constitutional rights.

So … who is the real hater?

It’s kinda like all of these organizations. They all started with a great purpose and probably stayed clean for a year or two...then agenda people walked in and took over. It would have been that way with the Tea Party if they’d been a formal organization and centralized base.

Their narcissism in part functions to blind them to inconvenient realities. So to compensate, they idealize the targets of their misdirected and pathological ‘caring.’”]

That...in answer to your question...is what we down here in Alabammy fondly refer to as a "hawg".

Not to be confused with a large Bigmouth Bass of trophy size, or to an obese swine.

Nope...she is just a "hawg"!

Usually expressed in the following manner:

"Holy crap...look at THAT hawg!"

One should take caution to not place oneself between said hawg and...say, a self-serve all-you-can-eat buffet, as it is a sure bet that she will eat all she can and she'll knock you to the side to get to it.

This is a hawg...that when she sits around the house...she sits AROUND the house.

This hawg has been rejected as the poster hawg for the the Arkansas Razorbacks...since it is evident that to say "Go, Hawgs", in the presence of THIS hawg, is nothing less than wistful and unseemly musings...since THIS hawg can't GO anywhere in any fashion resembling haste.

No...in fact...one would be hard pressed to achieve an awkward waddle out of this hawg with anything less than a fully charged EBT card and an unlimited gift card from Walmart.

But ain't she purty?

Yeah, I keep those handy to show that liberalism can be truly dangerous - even to the liberals themselves.

The woman; her mother read to her from Hillary Rodham Clinton’s “It Takes a Village” as a child - it shaped her whole life - and blinded her to the dangers of such insanity.

Some idiot wrote of her death: “I’m sure her )SJW) understanding helped her get through it”. (paraphrased)

To her death.

Morons: they walk all around us.

Yeah, I’m sure that was some comfort as he was stabbing her to death, stealing her credit/debit card and her Prius. /s

I’ll try to find the exact quote and link later.

The Southern Projecting Liberal Center is just that...a projecting liberal progressive hate machine hell bent on making sure that you hate the innocent so as to justify never holding accountable those whom they promote.

I’m in criminalannoy. I know what a hawg largemouth is but I would call it just a plain old breeder hog. Middle guard for some NFL team...all 400 lbs of butter. By the way, aren’t y’all blessed with those SPLC criminals down there?

Go Tide!

Yep, bless their pea-pickin' hearts...but everybody has got to be somewhere, doncha know and that hot bed of liberal activism known as Montgomery is as good as any place, I reckon.

Some of us don't consider it to even be in Alabammy.

The capitol should be in Tuscaloosa and Nick Saban should be the governor.

Roll, Tide, baby.

Hey old Sgt. Major you are talking to an old Major...real old-77. Air Force.

Every state has its hotbed of liberal activism...Austin, TX,Madison, WI, Portland, OR, etc and my favorite..shitcago, IL among others. I didnt know Montgomery was your crown jewel.

By the way, there is no rank in heaven but we will put that aside for now.

I’m working on joining the Sons of Confederate Veterans..,I lost one at Camp Douglas in Chicago no less.

Saban for president in 2024 and Jalen for something when he is ready!

Roll tide!

Pleased to make your acquaintance...we won't hold that Air Force thing against you.

Just kidding you...my son went Air Force...in spite of everything I could do.

...Jalen for something when he is ready!

Man, that kid is something else, ain't he?

And off the field, he's got it going on, too.

Refreshing to see...I hope it doesn't spoil him. I had the pleasure of meeting his father a while back at an alumni function...heck of a coach in his own right and he's proud of that boy of his.

I think Nick will keep him going in the right direction...he's had great luck with quite a few and I'm not talking about getting them into the NFL...I'm talking making good responsible and successful folks out them.

Roll Tide, roll.

Southern Poverty Law Center Transfers Millions in Cash to Offshore Entities
Left-wing nonprofit pays lucrative six-figure salaries to top management
freebeacon / BY: Joe Schoffstall / FR Posted on 08/31/2017 by Sub-Driver

The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), a liberal, Alabama-based 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charitable organization that has gained prominence on the left for its "hate group" designations, pushes millions of dollars to offshore entities as part of its business dealings, records show.

Additionally, the nonprofit pays lucrative six-figure salaries to its top directors and key employees while spending little on legal services despite its stated intent of "fighting hate and bigotry" using litigation, education, and other forms of advocacy.

The Southern Poverty Law Center is perhaps best known for its "hate map," a collection of organizations the nonprofit deems "domestic hate groups" that lists mainstream conservative organizations alongside racist groups such as the Ku Klux Klan and is often referenced in the media. A gunman opened fire at the Washington, D.C., offices of the conservative Family Research Council in 2012 after seeing it listed as an "anti-gay" group on SPLC's website.

The SPLC has turned into a fundraising powerhouse, recording more than $50 million in contributions and $328 million in net assets on its 2015 Form 990, the most recently available tax form from the nonprofit.

SPLC's Form 990-T, its business income tax return, from the same year shows that they have "financial interests" in the Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands, and Bermuda. No information is available beyond the acknowledgment of the interests at the bottom of the form. (Excerpt) Read more at freebeacon.com ...
