The KKK does not exist, effectively. It hasn't existed for about 50 years.

The KKK is imaginary leftwing outrage clickbait.

There's no leadership, no organization, no funding, no anything.

Every now and then about a dozen meth heads with no money and no teeth will get together in a trailer park, put robes and burn a cross.

Furries are a larger, more powerful lobby than the "KKK" is.

It's a boogeyman the left uses to demonize people they don't like or to drum up fear and outrage.

do they even do that anymore? every time something gets burned and it is attributed to the kkk it ends up being a black person that did it.

The KKK is insignificant, but they exist. We had KKK protestors at my high school and I didn't quite go to school 50 years ago. But yeah it's no surprise that a reality show would script events. That's not exactly news to most of us.

I've been saying the same thing since the MSM started beating this KKK drum.

I live in rural Alabama. If the klan was alive and well, living here and having the career I have, I think I'd know about it. Now we got some real deal Aryan Brotherhood dudes. But no klan.

Why would they need to? Donald Trump has shown bigotry need not be secretive.

I mean, they're around for sure and loosely organized, but you may have a point in the furies having a bigger lobby.
