Bank of America Donated over $20,000 to SPLC in 2017Posted: 2019-04-15 4-15-19
The hate business is very good these days; especially when you are a hater yourself. If you hate a person or group then just lable them a hater in order to punish them. And then, the enemies of those you hate will pay you to help with the hating. So, now, whenever you see someone sporting a "No H8" sign, you will know that the hater is the accuser.
From 2nd Vote:
Over 60 organizations are currently considering legal action against the Southern Policy Law Center (SPLC) over the falsely applied “hate group” designation. However, the most recent available financial documents show Bank of America has increased its financial support for SPLC in recent years.
The Bank of America Foundation is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization that serves as Bank of America’s charitable giving arm. The foundation’s 2017 Form 990 reports $20,518 in contributions to SPLC for the purpose of “program/operating support” in that year.
Similar contributions for previous years fall with the range of $2,000 to $5,000.
The spike in funding corresponds with an increase of corporate partnerships with SPLC beginning in 2017. Corporations like Guidestar, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon, Google, and Paypal have implemented SPLC’s “hate” designation as an authority for excluding or labeling organizations on their platforms. Companies like Apple specifically solicited donations for SPLC from their customers and CNN republished SPLC’s data to create a list of alleged “hate groups” without explaining the origin until called out by conservative groups.
However, recent events suggest SPLC’s operations have less to do with fighting “hate,” and more to do creating political animosity for the purpose of fundraising. Conservative groups like the Family Research Council, Alliance Defending Freedom, the American Family Association, and more have all been tagged as “hate groups” for simply upholding traditional marriage in accordance with Judeo-Christian values. Yet, entering 2017, SPLC reported nearly $450,000,000 in net assets.
