Hello ladies, hello gentlemen, this is the Victor Davis Hanson show I'm Jack Fowler, the host, Victor is the Martin and E. Lee Anderson senior fellow at the Hoover Institution and the Wayne Amosha Busky Distinguished Fellow in History at Hillsdale.

Colleges got a website an official website it's called the blade of Perseus its web address is Victor Hanson dot com and I'll tell you about that later and why you should be subscribing.

Victor there's a number of woke topics to talk about today and then get into a little Biden immigration policy if we have time towards the end but I think we need to start off today's episode by getting your thoughts.

On the southern poverty law center and we'll get to that right after these important messages.

Junk science that's what the doctor called many of those fruit and vegetable supplements junk science because they use extracts of common produce department fruits and vegetables with few health benefits I take field of greens because it's the whole organic fruit and vegetable not a water down supplement and it's backed by a better health promise each ingredient in field of greens with scientifically chosen to support vital organs like heart lungs and kidney health.

Other support my immune system blood pressure metabolism and healthy weight loss I don't need is healthy as I should no question about that but that's why I take field of greens like me you'll probably look and feel healthy or fast and have way more energy but your best proof will be at your next checkup when your doctor says whatever you're doing it's working keep it up let me get you started with 15% off visit field of green.

We're back with the Victor Davis Hansen show so Victor I'm looking at a Washington Examiner piece and it's titled Southern poverty law center goes after parental groups and here's the first to short paragraphs of this article on this year's

hate map and quote year in hate and and extremism and quote report this Southern poverty law center included 230 chapters of moms for liberty 12 chapters of parental rights and education and many local chapters of US parents involved in education and entire section of the SPLC report is dedicated to the quote assault on inclusive education and quote

which begins by comparing the condition of education debates in 1960 to those in 2022 it then goes on to list some of these groups ideas that are supposedly akin to those of neo Nazis things such as saying critical race theory is anti-American and supporting a ban on gender identity and sexual orientation instruction for children and kindergarten through third grade you know truly shocking stuff

Victor the Southern poverty law center which is corrupt in its own way has this undue oversized influence because many other organizations and businesses look at their you know their their hate list oh you're on you're on the Southern poverty law center hate list we shouldn't invest in you or if you're one of these donor advised

these thrones funds through maybe fidelity of anger sometimes well you know we can't give to that group because they're on the SPLC hate list that's they're influenced that's massive well that's why it is it's got the Jesse Jackson formula that if you're a corporation just like when Jesse Jackson with threatened boycott Toyota or something he became fabbiously wealthy his rainbow coalition

because what anti poverty and then you say well you know what I don't want that guy in my back here's a million bucks so the Southern poverty law system has that list that apparently means a lot in liberal America or it's a taboo to be on it that you're discriminatory so they to shield you you give them money

and it's a very highly refined I guess it's a shake down process you know was started by that more more is D's I remember Julian bond in this early 70s and the idea was that it was going to continue on an economic front the civil rights movement it was kind of bogus because already then they were starting not about equal opportunity but mandated equity

but it's kind of like the holy Roman Empire that will tear says not holy it's not Roman it's not empire so it's not really Southern it's everywhere to give an example of what I mean I spoke at the American Freedom Alliance about five years ago on immigration

and they put they send out people in cognito you know to hear things and there was one of their operatives and then the next day I was told I was a racist and then I wrote an article about it pointed out that

would they please tell me exactly what I said and then it's never heard from them again but that's their operation they send out people all over to monitor things and then they just lied that some people who are conservative or racist and some people who are liberal may if they say blatantly racist things like Joe Biden remember

have you ever heard the Southern poverty loss in her say we oppose and a poor Joe Biden because you gave the ulygy on the death of one of the ulygy's on the death of strong thirman and Robert bird or play segregationist James Easlin or talk about a racial jungle if bus he went through call to his assistance boys put you all back and change hey junkie

hey you ain't black hey brokobama you're the first or ticket you can go on hey everybody and you can't go into a doughnut shop without seeing an Indian all that stuff did they ever say you know what this is just two

egregious but we're going to side no they don't that's not what they're there for they're there for getting you know I don't know what to get a hundred and thirty billion dollar a million dollars a year they got a huge endowment

it's like four hundred five hundred million dollars it's huge and of course they they accuse everybody and then we find out that this white male privilege raging supremacist Morris D's had been what systematically sexually harassing women that were in his employment and they accused him not me not me

but they accused him not just of sexual harassment but racial harassment that this white person was using his position quote unquote a power to establish quote unquote a hostile workplace quote unquote to coerce younger women either to embarrass them sexually or racially or to coerce them in asymmetrical power sexual relationship

so that I don't think they have any credibility at all but they're they're very dangerous and you don't want to be on their list apparently and they use that to frighten people but they have nothing to do as I said using the Voltaire quip they're not southern they don't have anything really to do with poverty they're very wealthy as we just mentioned they have all this money they go they deal with corporations of the same class it's their money versus corporate money and
