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.

The backlash was swift. So much so that the president and CEO of the SPLC, Margaret Huang, felt it necessary to take to the pages of the Wall Street Journal to defend the move.
