His latest verbal attack on the SPLC was in reaction to a separate post by far-right influencer Mike Cernovich, who falsely blamed the SPLC’s tracking of domestic extremism for “incit[ing] a mass shooting” against right-wing activist group Family Research Council in 2012.

It makes sense why Musk would hate an extremism-tracking group, given that he himself regularly advocates for far-right extremism.
