Closing Thought–06Oct21

Hate in America!

Bold statement…..if so just where are these shadowy groups located?

24/7 Wall St. reviewed data from the Southern Poverty Law Center, a legal advocacy organization with a focus on civil rights, to identify the states with the most hate groups per capita. 

Though the number of hate groups has decreased in the last few years, these groups have become scattered and difficult to track as they communicate online through encrypted platforms. There are many other people who harbor white nationalist, anti-Semitic, anti-Muslim, neo-Nazi, anti-LGBTQ, and other extremist views and who are not official members of any specific hate group.

States with outsized shares of hate groups tend to have several characteristics in common. Most states on this list are not very racially diverse and are home to higher shares of residents identifying as white alone and to lower shares of foreign-born residents than the comparable national averages. States with high concentrations of hate groups also tend to have low median household incomes and high poverty rates. These are America’s richest and poorest states.

States With the Most Hate Groups

Thanx to the appearance of Trump on the political stage….and the groups were empowered by the words of the former president….

Trump may be gone….but his message is still resonating strongly with these groups.

We have not heard or seen the last of these people…..

  1. Unfortunately, Trump is still alive, so my guess is that he is encouraging these groups from behind the scenes. He may be using proxy people, or third parties not obviously connected to him, but I bet my bottom dollar he is up to no good.
    Best wishe, Pete.
