[kj] (OT) Hate maps of the United States

    I think the SPLC's definition of hate has to do more with the subject espousing the hate, and less with the object of said hate (tho' i'd have to check their criteria again). For example, there's a - get this - jewish group** (can't be hateful, right?) who's called a hate group because here in the U.S. they try murdering  and plant bombs against who they think are enemies of the jewish people. 
   I've also known a few Hispanic nationalist types who have a fanatical "love" for their ethnicity but when they also actively wish harm on white people, that's when they're espousing hate as far as I'm concerned, no matter their "underdog" status of a minority-group advocate.

poked around the site today to reacquaint myself with the splc, all eerily similar to the homeland security assessments of who the biggest threats to the country are.  

pretty manipulative the way they lump together pro-peace groups like 'we are change' with the most loathsome, toothless white power groups.  the biggest racists aren't wearing hoods anyway, they're in $10,000 suits.  

things seem to be pointing to branding any facet of the "patriot movement" as the new al-qaeda as a means to turn all the anti-terror mechanisms inward (which was always the plan, if you've ever cracked a history book).  it'll be a lot easier to find enemies if they're of the majority race and have ever mumbled something about having to pay taxes.

As most anything around here, it is all two sides of the same coin. 
The politics, Left and Right, are but 2 sides of the same, um, "exceptionalism," 
and the police and, um, "patriots" are 2 sides of the same visceral, um, "affinity"/fetish/cultish-swooning for institutionalized** force. 
[All a highly prevalent but not unanimous state of being]


**whether by a gov't., or "grassroots"

is that a picture of a hate group on the home page?  because they bear a striking resemblance to what police are starting to look like in the states.

Oh my god... when they'll understand that they/we must stand for the opposite to make a change?
Otherwise, you support hate by hating hate and you've got catch 22. Ask for the opposite.
