Хотите поговорить о распространении нацизма на кампусах? Действительно опасное явление.
Throughout the 2016-17 school year, students, faculty and staff on 110 American college campuses were confronted by 159 incidents of racist fliers and stickers, as well as numerous on-campus appearances by white supremacists and several rounds of anti-Semitic, racist faxes and emails. White supremacists are mobilizing in hopes of translating their online activism to “real world” action, and campuses – and young people – are prime targets, in part because they are still figuring out who they are, and what they believe. Extremists also undoubtedly see value in recruiting a new generation that can carry the movement for years to come. https://www.adl.org/blog/white-supremacists-on-campus-unprecedented-recruitment-efforts-underway
In the immediate aftermath of Election Day, a wave of hate crimes and lesser hate incidents swept the country — 1,094 bias incidents in the first 34 days, according to a count by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). The hate was clearly tied directly to Trump’s victory. The highest count came on the first day after the election, with the numbers diminishing steadily after that. And more than a third of the incidents directly referenced either Trump, his “Make America Great Again” slogan, or his infamous remarks about grabbing women by the genitals. Several new and energetic groups appeared last year that were almost entirely focused on Trump and seemed to live off his candidacy. They included Identity Evropa, a campus-oriented group based in California; The Right Stuff, based in New York; and American Vanguard, a group with 12 chapters. And The Daily Stormer, the website whose chief came up with the term “Our Glorious Leader” for Trump, expanded into real-world activism by starting 31 “clubs.” In July, it became the most visited hate site on the Internet, surpassing longtime hate leader Stormfront. https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/intelligence-report/2017/year-hate-and-extremism
Но, возможно, всплеск нацистской и расистской пропаганды на кампусах - это всего лишь невинные люди, которые мирно пользуются свободой слова, и нас должны заботить только проявления политического экстремизма в виде насилия.
Проблема в том, что, торжественно открывая Центр по Борьбе с Экстремизмом в Саудовской Аравии, Трамп одновременно пытается прикрыть аналогичную программу у себя в стране.
The Trump administration has frozen $10 million in grants allocated at the end of the Obama administration under the countering violent extremism program and has yet to reallocate the funds. The funding cuts proposed by the budget would reduce the $50 million currently allocated for the program down to zero for fiscal year 2018. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-budget-extremism-idUSKBN18J2HJ
