Reply to comment by ILikeCrabbyRobots in NH safety officials ask for vigilance as white supremacists promote 'day of hate' by ShamanicYogi

The fact that anybody thinks this is something worth worrying about in NH is pretty laughable, though.

Maybe they’re black or brown or Jewish or LGBT. Or maybe they’re paying attention to a national rise in hate crimes against <pick any group that’s a target of white male grievance>. Or maybe they pay attention to the intersection of the alt-right / MAGA movement in a state with so few restrictions against guns.

Please support any one of those claims with a statistic.

See: Southern Poverty Law Center, Anti Defamation League websites for good insight on hate groups in this state and elsewhere in New England / USA.

Here is a link to an article about hate crimes on the rise in NH: https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/new-hampshire/articles/2023-01-20/reports-of-hate-crimes-have-grown-in-new-hampshire

And of course, with your own eyes, see the evidence of Proud Boys / 3 Percenters / Oath Keepers on a black pickup near you.

It’s okay to not be the target of this to see it and acknowledge it.

That link is talking about an office created less than 6 years ago. Of course they're going to see a huge increase in reports in their initial years. That is a weak basis for a belief.

By all means, double down in defense of the aggrieved white dudes. It’s NH, after all.

I pointed out a major flaw in your reasoning. If you don't like that, that's on you.

SPLC is a far-left radical hate group that is infamous for lying about everything. They've been sued and payed out millions to people like Maajid Nawaz for defamation.

Nothing to worry about, if you are white anyways...
