The Left-fascists are moving in for the kill. “CNN, MSNBC Air Misleading Liberal ‘Hate Map,’” by Trey Elmore, ChurchMilitant.com, August 17, 2017: DETROIT (ChurchMilitant.com) – In the aftermath of the Charlottesville clashes between white supremacists and Antifa resulting in the death of 32-year-old Heather Hayer, mainstream news media has taken to referencing the far Left […]
Southern Poverty Law Center demonizes respectable opponents as “hate groups”—and keeps its coffers bulging
This article was written before Charlottesville, but it takes on a new urgency now, as the SPLC’s spurious and defamatory list of “hate groups” is being used to target and destroy those groups. The freedom of speech is rapidly being denied to all those who are deemed to be propagating “hate,” and given the SPLC’s […]
Robert Spencer: Charlottesville Shows How Dangerous the SPLC Really Is
If, post-Charlottesville, the establishment media and the Left are going to embark upon a full-scale jihad (I wouldn’t want to offend Leftists by calling it a “crusade”) against neo-Nazis and white supremacists, they’re going to catch in their net a great many legitimate groups if they rely on the SPLC to direct them to the […]
Pamela Geller: GuideStar Removes SPLC “Hate List” Label from AFDI, 40 Conservative Orgs
After a much-publicized campaign against America’s leading source of information on U.S. charities, GuideStar, partnering with America’s most notorious uber-left smear machine, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), GuideStar has removed the “hate group” label from conservative and pro-freedom organizations (including ours, AFDI). Last week, a coalition of conservative groups and organizations working in defense […]
Hypocrisy: Maajid Nawaz suing SPLC for naming him “anti-Muslim extremist”
Muslim reformer Maajid Nawaz is right to sue the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), America’s leading hate group, for defamation. However, he is not opening up his suit to all those similarly defamed by the SPLC, because as he has made clear in the past, he thinks some of the people listed do deserve to […]
Pamela Geller: J’accuse the Left of Treason, Murder and Warmongering
Yesterday’s shooting by an SPLC (Southern Poverty Law Center) supporting, Bernie Sanders devotee is the obvious and logical consequence of the left’s treasonous war on America. This is but another assassination attempt by a left-lauded Southern Poverty Law center supporter. SPLC, a vicious hate and smear machine, is held up as some kind of authority […]
SPLC conflates groups that really preach hatred with ones that don’t share its political views
Superb piece by Mark Krikorian of the Center for Immigration Studies about how the Southern Poverty Law Center attempts to delegitimize and marginalize groups that simply don’t share its hard-Left politics by classifying them as “hate groups” alongside the Ku Klux Klan and the like. The establishment media eagerly plays along by treating the SPLC […]
“The leader of the SPLC is aware the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) is a Hamas organization”
This news story is something so rare that I can’t think of even a single other example of it: mainstream media space given to a figure vilified by the Leftist establishment, to rebut that establishment’s charges. Usually the media presents the defamation of the hard-Left Southern Poverty Law Center and the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic […]
Israel’s ambassador to US slams SPLC as “the defamers and the blacklisters”
This viciously biased Times of Israel piece treats the Southern Poverty Law Center as if it were a respectable organization, which it isn’t by a long shot. The SPLC is a propaganda organ for the Left, tarring any group that dissents from its extreme political agenda as a “hate group.” It could be easily dismissed […]
Robert Spencer: The SPLC’s “Terror from the Right” Deception
The Daily Caller reported Thursday that “the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) considers the Orlando nightclub shooting, an ISIS-inspired attack that left 49 dead, a right-wing plot, along with the shootings of police officers by anti-white terrorists.” The SPLC’s list, “Terror from the Right,” claims to be “a synopsis of radical-right terrorist plots, conspiracies and […]
