Last year, there were more hate and anti-government extremist groups in the United States than ever before, according to Southern Poverty Law Center’s new report, “The Year In Hate and Extremism 2023.”
A Faction?
And those not actually IN the faction look the other way, so they are faction-adjacent or allies.
*&^%$#@!
The carcass of the failed state attracts a special population that feeds on death. Fascinating creatures.
With an ideology of hate and it’s companions racism, bigotry, homophobia, revenge, and everything else pointing in all directions of the compass it’s easy to set goals and get things done because all their results are negative. They don’t actually have to work to govern, fix things, make progress on any front, they just have to be cruel at every turn. Humorless hypocrisy, a disregard for the truth in any matter, and a total lack of remorse is all it takes.
And those congressional representatives that support this would simply accuse the rest of us of being snowflakes and that they and only they know what’s best for the country. If they can’t enforce their will by the vote, they’ll find other ways to make it so.
Hey, this is America, the crazy and bigoted need representation too; there are a lot of 'em /s
Snark aside, it’s clearly become profitable and so it attracts less scrupulous politicians which naturally includes conservatives practicing a Seagull style of governance: fly in, make a lot of noise, crap the place up, then fly away leaving others to clean up the mess.
NB: Conspiracy and theocracy do not lend themselves to accurate representations of reality and since some degree of accuracy is necessary to identify real problems and craft appropriate solutions for them, all a representative of that really can do is make noise and crap the place up; there is nothing left but a desire for additional funding.
…or run away retire to “spend more time with their families”…
Not patriotic these ignorant haters, more like parasitic, feeding off of all the good in America and returning nothing.
Either America survives, or Fox News does.
The loons in Congress and the loons in the burgeoning hate-group cottage industry don’t come from the clear blue yonder. Truth is convergent, and truth leads away from Trump and Lindell and MTG and “Italian space lasers,” so something must be making all the rivers run backwards.
When the leaders of the party sow, incite, and enable hate and extremism, what would one expect?
“But the SPLC notes Johnson’s ability to rise to one of the most influential positions on Capitol Hill is illustrative of that shift.”
One of the most influential?
The speakership is the highest office in the legislative branch and second in line, after the vice president, in the presidential succession.
Congratulations! You win todays internet!
The influence between far-right lawmakers and anti-government groups is a “two-way street,”…
These antigovernment types never fail to cash a check. From the government.
That cottage industry is 30 years old. Came up under Bill Clinton.
In 2023, SPLC documented a total of 1,430 hate and anti-government extremist groups in the U.S.,
Stupid people need hobbies too!
The Republican Party and Extremist Hate Groups … what a lovely couple.
Like retired career military Libertarians?
