I fooled around at the site and found this -

"Powerful Jews oppose the assertion of White identity while encouraging the expression of every other identity in order to weaken Whites!"

This is something that has always bothered me.  Because to me, a Jew is obviously white  :sleep:

For some reason like this photo, it shows the pre-built parts of a Horsa glider made by various manufacturers, as delivered to an RAF airfield for final assembly. Maybe because it resembles a giant airfix kit, though almost exclusively made of wood.  :bowler:

Yi, I kind of have to agree with Oex here--there's a lot of info there if you click on the like, granted that many of the groups don't seem to have links, and as Oex points out, figuring out how many members some of these groups have is problematic at best.

I disagree.  While the background/history of each flavor of hate group is interesting from an academic or wonkish point of view, the site tells us nothing about prevalence of hate and intensity of hate.  If that Black Power Liberation Army in Des Moines is 10,000 armed, bomb-making disciplined foot soldiers of Nubian pride, that's a big deal to me.  If it's two black studies majors liking each others Facebook posts, I don't really care.

And all that info is there. Which is why I asked if what you wanted is that info in a more convenient format. Obviously, a fringe group that does not have a dedicated entry is much less important, than one, say like the Rise Above Movement, whose entry explicitly mentions the use of violence at demonstration. https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/group/rise-above-movement

I am amazed how anybody would have the time to do this kind of website.

QuoteCivil rights lawyers Morris Dees and Joseph Levin Jr. founded the SPLC in 1971 to ensure that the promise of the civil rights movement became a reality for all. Since then, we've won numerous landmark legal victories on behalf of the exploited, the powerless and the forgotten.

Our lawsuits have toppled institutional racism and stamped out remnants of Jim Crow segregation; destroyed some of the nation's most violent white supremacist groups; and protected the civil rights of children, women, the disabled, immigrants and migrant workers, the LGBT community, prisoners, and many others who faced discrimination, abuse or exploitation.

Our Intelligence Project is internationally known for tracking and exposing the activities of hate groups and other domestic extremists.

Our Teaching Tolerance program produces and distributes – free of charge – anti-bias documentary films, books, lesson plans and other materials that reduce prejudice and promote educational equity in our nation's schools.

We also built and maintain the Civil Rights Memorial and its interpretive center, the Civil Rights Memorial Center, in Montgomery, Alabama, the birthplace of the modern civil rights movement.

We're based in Montgomery and have offices in Atlanta, Miami, New Orleans, and Jackson, Miss.

I sympathize with Yi's viewpoint.  Number of hate groups or number of hate groups per capita is not a good number to use to paint some states dark red and other states light red.  No statistic is ever perfect, but many are imperfect enough to be useless, or maybe even worse than useless.  Numbers can be powerful, but they can also be dangerous because of their power; you really have to respect them and use them carefully.

These groups are fluid, and simply put nobody has the manpower to stake out Nation of Islam office in St. Louis and count how many people come in over the course of a month.  Well, there are some people who do things like that, but I get the feeling that skeptical conservatives wouldn't be particularly impressed with information provided by anti-racist activists.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

If you're staking out a political office and you're not being paid for it, you really should ask yourself what you're doing with your life.

I like how he can't come up with a coherent reply and just lost it. Very enjoyable

I need to rent a car next week and it's causing so much stress. Are the small and cheap companies worse than the big famous ones? How do I avoid it costing me thousands? Gahh
