Forget fake news; the real issue is fake “hate.”
America’s leading hate group, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) claims there have been approximately 9,456,723 hate crimes by whites against minorities since Trump’s election.
Has there been one? I mean actual, documented hate crimes, not alleged. The Muslim girls in particular seem to be very spirited liars.
Since the election, we’ve gotten vivid stories from around the nation about Trump supporters tearing off Muslim girls’ hijabs — at the University of Michigan (since retracted), Louisiana State University (also retracted), San Diego State University (that too was retracted), the New York City subway (again: retracted), and the University of New Mexico (no witnesses, won’t reveal attacker’s name or report the incident for investigation).
You can’t read all these accounts without thinking: We sure have taken in a lot of Muslims! They have trouble assimilating to American customs about not committing mass murder, but when it comes to America’s culture of victimhood
This isn’t a mass psychogenic illness, like when cheerleaders at the same high school all develop tics. It’s not even the Salem witch trials. At least the Salem witch-hunters believed in witches. The Muslim hoaxers are lying, and they know they’re lying.
Otherwise, they’d leave the country. If Muslims want to convince me that they’re trembling in fear in Trump’s America
Despite the endless complaints about the reign of terror against Muslims, I have yet to hear of a single Muslim — much less a wave of Muslims — moving out of the United States.
It’s not as if they get depressed at the thought of leaving because they’d have to abandon the old ancestral home, where their great-grandparents are buried. They just got here!
If any Muslim were at risk of so much as a dyspeptic look from white Americans, there’s emigration as well as immigration.
But to the contrary, we can’t keep them out! They get huffy and give indignant speeches at the Democratic National Convention at Trump’s proposal to temporarily pause mass Muslim immigration from terrorist-producing countries.
The greatest fear of Muslims these days is that they won’t be home when the “Today” show calls and will miss an opportunity to regale credulous hosts with stories about their victimization at the hands of white American men (whose great-grandparents are buried here).
Journalists have gone so insane that the SPLC, the main propagator of fake hate crimes, is the media’s go-to expert on “hate.” SPLC spokesmen appear on TV and defame all the people they hate: whites, Christians, Trump supporters, cops, frat boys and so on.
The SPLC is like the cult awareness groups that got taken over by Scientologists. Distressed parents would call asking for help in rescuing their kids, and be told, No, Scientology is not a cult.
With the SPLC, the “hate watch” group is the hater. Unlike some toothless nobody claiming to be a member of the ALL-POWERFUL KU KLUX KLAN, the SPLC’s slanders are instantly amplified by the media megaphone in somber interviews conducted by the most eagerly fooled people in the world, American journalists.
Breitbart, Daily Caller and others have done a great job collecting the hoax hate crimes since the election, but we need a central clearinghouse to keep up with the volume.
How about someone found the Northern Poverty Law Center (NPLC), to expose the hoaxes being spit out on an assembly line by the SPLC? Maybe the Koch brothers could get back into Trump’s good graces by funding this much-needed service.
The soon-to-be NPLC ought to be in the Rolodexes of every media organization, so they can stop reporting fake news and start covering the real hate crimes that are being ignored by the press.
The only incidents of actual “hate” since the election have been entirely in one direction: against Trump supporters. This is hardly surprising given the climate of hate being spread by the media.
At this point, any claim of “hate” directed at Muslims, blacks, gays or Hispanics by Trump supporters should be treated like a UFO sighting: presumed false, until documented with hard evidence.
But until the NPLC is up and running, here are some tips for journalists:
— Real hate crimes do not begin with laughably implausible scenarios. Try to use a modicum of common sense.
— They are very likely to be captured on videotape or at least seen by actual witnesses who give statements to the police. Lachrymose accounts posted on Facebook do not constitute evidence.
— They generally result in medical treatment and/or arrests.
The Trump Justice Department needs to create an office that will serve as a liaison with this new civil rights organization, the Northern Poverty Law Center. Because eradicating hate is Job No. 1!
