Breathless Reports About ‘Hate Groups’ Aim to Panic Americans Into Speech Controls
04/15/2019
The collective push to double down on a free-speech atmosphere already challenged post-Christchurch seems to beg the question: is it a surge in "hate" we're witnessing, or a surge in "hate panic"?
Groups like the SPLC and ADL engage in
the "politics of spectacle." Their brand of anti-racism advocacy is "endemic to
a certain kind of 'elite liberalism'" which "totally skew[s] the idea of how
racism works and how to begin solving it." For these groups, this might
actually be the whole point.
