Manufactured Outrage

As reported a few weeks ago, the City Council is attempting to outlaw membership in "extremist groups" by police officers (but not other city departments). They've tried to pass this ordinance a bunch of times but it keeps running into legal objections, not the least of which is no one seems to be able to define what makes a group "extremist." 

So the brainiac aldermorons pretty much relied on organizations like the Southern Poverty Law Center to define "extremist," which ended up being anyone leaning just a little bit to the right side of the political spectrum.

Look who just got indicted for funding these "extremist" groups....and then fundraising off of that very "extremism" that they funded:

• The Department of Justice announced Tuesday that a grand jury indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center for making fraudulent payments of millions of dollars to members of the Ku Klux Klan and other neo-Nazi organizations.

  Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said at a news conference that the 11-count indictment filed in an Alabama federal court alleged the left-wing nonprofit had in the past decade paid at least $3 million to eight members of the far-right groups.

  One leader of the 2017 Unite the Right protest in Charlottesville, Va., received roughly $270,000 over an eight-year period.

The racism that polluted the country for so many years was literally on the verge of being consigned to the dustbin of history as minorities were making great strides in education, business and economic opportunities. Wonder of wonders, some black guy even ran for president and won.

But it's hard to raise funds from people who are doing well. In fact, people who do well gradually start to want to keep their wealth and pass it on to their children....and to do that, they start voting that way. Leftists couldn't have that, so suddenly everything was racist again. When racism couldn't be found often enough, it was manufactured. And when it couldn't be manufactured, it was purchased by organizations like the SPLC.

And now finally, the truth is coming out.
