If that's all, it's really interesting that it became white nationalist in SPLC's reporting...
- mikeyouse 7y agoThey literally had a section on their 'news' website called "Black Crime" - the terms are synonymous. It's astonishing to me that the crowd would rather parse SPLC's phrasing or history rather than the documentary evidence that there are white nationalists making policy at the highest levels of our government and coordinating with one of Facebook's 'approved news sources'.
- DuskStar 7y agoWell, taking the maximally-charitable view of things would point out that "Black Crime" would cover ~half of violent crime in the US, and so deserve a category. But somehow I doubt that they'd cover non-black crime to quite the same extent. (Though the maximally charitable view there would be that non-black crime is better covered on other sites than black crime is, and so on)
