Trump's base also includes hate groups

[lunatica]

according to the Southern Poverty Law Center there are 954 active hate groups in the United States. The link will take you to an eye opening map of these hate groups. It’s quite educational.

https://www.splcenter.org/hate-map

These groups have historically hated the US government and have become outlaws fighting it. Familiar names like Randy Weaver of Ruby Ridge, David Koresh of the Davidian Branch in Waco, Timothy McVeigh of the Oklahoma City bombing of the federal building, Alfred P. Murray, and David Duke, Grand Wizard of the KKK we know about. But that still leaves well over 900 organized groups.

Though each hate group may have it’s own group to hate, be they Muslims, Jews, Blacks and other, non white races and nationalities. Among them are Holocaust deniers, self appointed border patrols, skinheads, neo Nazis, the KKK and radical religious ministries, they all have one thing in common. They hate the government. Until now. Trump is their Man. Their President. They are what he talks about when he refers to his base, especially when he makes thinly veiled threats about their violence if people don’t stop critizising him like he did today. Already their crimes have increased.

We shouldn’t dismiss them lightly because now they have one leader who can unite all of them. Scattered and separated they could be kept in check, but will Trump’s government continue to keep them in check? Not if Trump can use them to further his consolidation on power.

If you feel inclined to recommend this thread so others can see the hate groups map please come back to rec it.

2. back in the 80's and 90's they were splintered,

but the dawn of the internet allowed them to organize online, especially when social media came along where they could then reach a mainstream audience. Trump coming to power basically is the culmination of that process.

He’s also on the record calling brown people rapists, murderers and gang members, and on implementing hate policy on them. He’s actively implementing policies that are against our allies, anti trade, and anti treaties.
