Southern Poverty Law Center Terminates a Quarter of its Staff, Outraging Union

What a shame. Just kidding. The SPLC is nothing more than a scam used to smear opponents of the left.

The Daily Signal reports:

MELTDOWN: SPLC Terminates a Quarter of Staff, ‘Decimates’ 3 Departments, Union ClaimsThe far-left smear factory the Southern Poverty Law Center reportedly terminated a quarter of its staff Wednesday, weakening and perhaps eliminating two of its departments amid a restructure that heavily hit its union members.The SPLC “gutted its staff by a quarter,” the organization’s union posted on X. (Yes, this nonprofit organization has its own labor union. If staff get tired of protesting Alliance Defending Freedom, they can protest management, instead.) The SPLC told more than 60 union members, including five union stewards and the union’s chair, that they would be losing their jobs.“We are devastated for our union and our colleagues,” the union posted.The SPLC confirmed the news to The Alabama Reflector, though it did not respond to a request for comment from The Daily Signal.“We announced internally the consolidation of certain programs and activities as well as the elimination of others, resulting in staff reductions,” the center said. The SPLC aims “streamline our activities and operations to strengthen our ability to advance a multiracial, inclusive democracy and ground our work in the perspectives and priorities of communities most affected by human rights violations.”
