Last week, the Southern Poverty Law Center unveiled its updated “hate map” for 2022, along with its annual “Year in Hate and Extremism” report. It is supposed to be a resource documenting the prevalence of hate groups across the country. But, this year, the SPLC decided to include hundreds of chapters of parental rights groups on a list right alongside the KKK, neo-Nazis, and racist militias.
OK, let’s parse that out. The SPLC website indicates that by “anti-government principles,” they mean Moms for Liberty has advocated the Department of Education be abolished. This may or may not be imprudent, but it is by no means uniquely extreme, as the department has faced opposition since its inception in 1980.
That this is a line of attack for the SPLC indicates it may be nothing more than a regular partisan move on their part. Last, when Huang claims these groups have taken “actions to censor school discussions around race, discrimination and LGBTQ+ identities,” it sounds a lot scarier than it actually is. What this has usually meant, in practice, is two things. First, it meant supporting a bill in Florida that barred instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity for grades K-3. Importantly, 60% of Americans agreed with the content of the bill.
