The Strictly Progressive Liability/List Consortium (SPLC) is dedicated to exposing "dangerous extremists and radicals" as long as they don't
embrace Communism, Fascism, Greenism, Marxism, Progressivism, Socialism or Statism.
Marketing itself as a protector of and supporter of "human rights" and "social justice" the organization the SPLC operates as an arm of the Progressive Democrat leadership.
A favorite target is individuals and groups that they arbitrarily deem to advocate or embrace "hate". Of course that includes most all patriotic Americans.
In it's history it has accidentally done some good work despite its best efforts to further its leftist agenda.
The current regimes' DHS, FBI, etc. loves to use "SPLC research" to justify identifying and labeling individuals and groups as dangerous counter-revolutionary radicals.
The SPLC is more or less an "ACLU on steroids".
Getting on the SPLC "lists" has become somewhat of an honor among American patriotic groups and individuals.
