‘Highly Profitable Scam’: Southern Poverty Law Center ‘Ripping Off Donors,’ Former Staffer Says

The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is a “highly profitable scam” that “never lived up to the values it espoused,” according to former SPLC staffer Bob Moser.

The New Yorker on Thursday published a scathing essay from Moser, now a Rolling Stone reporter, accusing the left-wing non-profit of “ripping off donors” while turning a blind eye to sexual harassment and racial discrimination within its own ranks.

The SPLC fired co-founder Morris Dees on March 13 over unspecified conduct issues.

The SPLC announced Dees’ firing after roughly two dozen SPLC employees previously signed a letter to the organization’s leadership expressing their alarm at “allegations of mistreatment, sexual harassment, gender discrimination, and racism,” The Los Angeles Times reported.

“Anyone think moDee’s retirement will still be awesomer than a lot of us?”

Sorry, but I need an interpreter for the meaning of that statement.

The most hilarious and hypocritical thing to me - for its stated mission of “racial justice” and decades of race-baiting grenade-throwing, SPLC has never had a black person as a board member or in their management group.

Anyone who trusts a liberal is delusional. Anyone who proclaims openly to be “pro choice” has molded their conscience to accept the wholesale killing of pre born human life. They are capable of any “moral” compromise and should never be trusted in any matter of importance. It is difficult to follow this advice because most decent people are inherently trustworthy when dealing with others. Yet if you do trust liberal or “progressives” you will inevitably be disappointed or suffer actual harm.

I guess simply Morris Dee & the SPLC or whatever is the white version of Al Sharpton & Jessie High Jackson.
