'A resurgence of white nationalism': Hate groups spiked in 2016
CNN ^ | February 15, 2017 | By Sara Ganim, Chris Welch, Nathaniel Meyersohn

(CNN)Across the country, flyers are showing up on college campuses. Some promote blatant neo-Nazi rhetoric, others are much more subtle. "Protect your heritage." "Let's become great again." "Our future belongs to us." "White people, do something." "Serve your people."

They represent a less extreme white supremacist movement targeting the young and educated.

"They're racist, but they have fancy new packaging," said Brian Levin, director for the Center of Hate and Extremism at Cal State San Bernardino. "They learn to downplay the swastikas and get a thesaurus, so instead of white supremacy they use words like identitarian. It's just a repackaged version of white nationalism." On Wednesday, the Southern Poverty Law Center, an Alabama-based organization that monitors hate crimes across the country, released its annual report on extremism in America. The report says the number of groups across the country increased in 2016 to 917, up from 892 in 2015. In 2011, SPLC recorded 1,018 active organizations, the highest tally it found in more than 30 years of tracking hate groups. That number had fallen to 784 in 2014. The largest jump last year occurred in the number of anti-Muslim hate groups, which tripled from 34 in 2015 to 101. . .

“... others are much more subtle. “Protect your heritage.”

Strange, is it not, since immigrant groups are persuaded, cajoled, and then demand it themselves — to EXALT their heritage. However, a sure sign of racism if you are a Caucasian, native-born American.

Whites are not allowed to stand up to tyranny. Only Africans, middle easterners, and all other non whites can be members off racist groups. I can’t even remember how many black klan groups are in place.

Who writes this crap for CNN? The SPLC is my best guess. Of the Muslim crimes, the ones that weren’t hoaxes, were probably muzz on muzz

Under Obama and years of his racism, I am not shocked. I still consider white racism as nasty as black BLM racism.

I’d love to see a “love” group “remove” the Atlanta white haters organization.

I’m sick and tired of white people being the only racists.

With all the constant attacks from every angle, it’s almost as if Caucasian people have been marked for extinction by some hidden force.

Hmmmmm...

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I get it. I’m white, voted for Trump over that harridan Hillary, believe Barry is closeted-homo / Muslim, his wife a frame-up fever, George Soros is a modern day Blowfeld, but I love my country and fellow US citizens and believe illegal / Muslim immigration constitutes national suicide.

OK. I’m a white nationalist in their eyes. It doesn’t mater that I married Mexican national and have 2 daughters with her. I’m a racist.

Whatever. I’ll still.sleep like a baby tonight.
