The Southern Poverty Law Center has always used social media, including X (formerly Twitter) as a tool to amplify our mission: fighting hate, seeking justice, and promoting equity. Recently, we’ve witnessed a troubling rise in hate speech and disinformation, along with a decline in the enforcement of moderation policies on X. These shifts have resulted in a platform that is no longer conducive to a productive dialogue and disproportionately harms the very communities we are dedicated to protecting.   After careful reflection, we have made the decision to discontinue active posting and engagement on this platform since it no longer aligns with our core values. While our account will remain live to preserve access to past content, we are redirecting our energy to platforms that promote meaningful dialogue and prioritize the well-being of marginalized communities. We encourage you to stay connected with us through: 💻 Our website: splcenter.org 📱Other social platforms: bsky.app/profile/splcen… instagram.com/splcenter/ linkedin.com/company/southe… facebook.com/SPLCenter We will continue to use the above platforms as a means to spread our message to fight hate and accomplish our core mission. Thank you for your continued support as we work together to build a more just and equitable society. — The Southern Poverty Law Center

@splcenter Who defines “Hate” ? And who judges what is hateful? SPLC will never recover from funding “hategroups” even if they survives the indictments.
