PATRIK JONSSON ON THE SPLC’S DISASTER: When does a hate-watch effort help expose and diminish hate, and when might it instead harden America’s stiff divides? Well, it’ll do the latter when it’s basically just a grift that has to manufacture “hate” to keep the money coming in.
Plus: “The growing rise of left-wing politics means that stuff that used to be center of the road is now right-wing. Bill Clinton’s policies are not that different from Trump, but Trump is a Nazi and Clinton was a Democrat hero. It’s a very, very left shift. We thought this was healed, but now we have seen that it is not healed.”
