Addition to this list edit

Can the non-profit "Moms for Liberty" be added unded the "anti-lgbtq" category? I believe its appropriate 66.85.230.181 (talk) 23:02, 16 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Increase edit

The lead states that:

Since 1981, the SPLC's Intelligence Project has published a quarterly Intelligence Report, which monitors hate groups and extremist organizations in the United States. The SPLC began an annual census of hate groups in 1990. The SPLC listed 1,020 hate groups and hate-group chapters on its 2018 list—an all-time high fueled primarily by an increase in radical right groups.

But Intelligence Report (redirect) states only radical right groups are tracked:

Since 1981, the SPLC's Intelligence Project has published a quarterly Intelligence Report that monitors what the SPLC considers radical right hate groups and extremists in the United States. The Intelligence Report provides information regarding organizational efforts and tactics of these groups and persons, and has been cited by scholars, including Rory M. McVeigh and David Mark Chalmers, as a reliable and comprehensive source on U.S. right-wing extremism and hate groups. In 2013 the SPLC donated the Intelligence Project s documentation to the library of Duke University. The SPLC also publishes HateWatch Weekly, a newsletter that follows racism and extremism, and the Hatewatch blog, whose subtitle is "Keeping an Eye on the Radical Right".

Is it correct to list the ideological increase if other extremist organizations are not being tracked? The lead needs to be worded better here. Gotitbro (talk) 08:33, 29 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Only what actually exists can be tracked. Racist, extremist, hate groups that currently plague the world are almost-universally right-wing. ValarianB (talk) 12:23, 29 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Delineation of Active vs Non-Active edit

This may be impractical, but the effect this web page may have on the reader is to give them the impression that all of these groups are currently active.

As a reader, I would love for there to be some kind of marking on these groups denoting whether or not they are defunct as well as a date for when the list was last reviewed. Luxdsg (talk) 19:25, 13 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
