The Emperor of Mankind
Currently the galaxy's spookiest paraplegic
About 2 years ago the Southern Poverty Law Centre, as part of the ongoing histrionics against people who have valid concerns about Islam or aspects of Islam, labelled Maajid Nawaz - who is a practising Muslim - an 'anti-Muslim extremist'. According to a Joe Rogan Experience podcast released about 6 hours ago, Maajid has started fighting to get himself removed from the SPLC's hate watch list.
On that list are Neo-Nazis, other far-right nutjobs and religious extremists. But there are/were also people like Maajid, Sam Harris & even Ayaan Hirsi Ali there. Apparently they've now taken the entire list (which is/was supposed to be a sort of Who's who for media outlets) down as part of their reaction to hearing about this oncoming lawsuit.
Nawaz has retained the services of a solicitor firm and is apparently suing for libel or defamation.
The podcast is nearly two hours long so I can't blame anyone for not watching it.
