That is not what the indictment even says.
It says F-37 "was a member of the online leadership chat group that planned the 2017 'Unite the Right' event in Charlottesville" and says nothing about SPLC paying him to organize it.
The indictment also says he attended the rally at their direction and helped coordinate transpiration to the event (it's not clear if this was under SPLC "direction").
F-37 is a piece of shite and was one prior to SPLC working with him and appears to have continued to be one long thereafter, including likely today.

This SPLC Thing
These clowns funded Charlottesville then ran on it and the "good people on both sides" hoax for years.
They'll stili reference the "good people" quote today with 0 irony or shame.

Which is much fewer than the number of fake nazis on the SPLC payroll.

That's only one of the numerous neo-Nazi or white supremacist organizations that was present. There were numerous ones and hundreds/thousands there outside of affiliation to any organization.
Then there were also hundreds/thousands of counter-protestors, and probably a bunch of people there to watch the chaos without any extremist views one way or the other (the very fine people).

Trump did a terrible job communicating before and after the event.

Slow is trying to litigate this one in the public opinion asap, with plans to gaslight us later.

Where is the evidence of this?
If you blamed the ACLU for defending the rights of the racists, that would make sense. They had a direct, integral role.
The SPLC, at worst, seems to have had a single racist drive a couple other racists to the event. Small potatoes compared to the large population appearing on the side of the racists, neo-Nazis, and white supremacists.

Who planned the event?
Under whose direction?

It doesn't even say this, directly. It says he was part of a group that planned it, but, that has nothing to do with the SPLC's role.
It only says they directed him to attend, and they supervised some racist postings he made....and that he drove some attendees to the rally (doesn't assign any relationship or role of SPLC here)

That's probably his objective...and to derail the thread.

They could have saved a couple hundred thousand bucks just using Uber.
Weird they went this route instead.

It doesn't.
Attended? Yes.
Planned? No.
This is a compound predicate.
F-37 was a member of the online leadership chat group that planned the 2017 "Unite the Right" event in Charlottesville, Virginia
and
attended the event at the direction of the SPLC.
I'll let AI get into the details
quote:
Grammatically, the direction from the SPLC applies only to the attendance.
In a compound predicate, a qualifying phrase (a prepositional phrase or a modifier) placed at the end of the sentence generally attaches itself to the nearest verb or the specific verb phrase it follows.
Sentence Breakdown
Action 1: "F-37 was a member of the online leadership chat group..."
Action 2: "...and attended the event at the direction of the SPLC."
Because the phrase "at the direction of the SPLC" follows "attended" and is separated from the first verb ("was") by the coordinating conjunction "and," it modifies the second action. If the writer intended for the direction to cover both actions, the sentence would typically be structured differently to "nest" both verbs under the modifier.
quote:
How to Change the Meaning
To see how the logic shifts, compare these variations:
Direction for Attendance Only (Your Sentence):
quote:
"F-37 was a member of the group and attended the event at the direction of the SPLC."
(The membership is stated as a fact; the attendance is the directed action.)
Direction for Both:
quote:
"At the direction of the SPLC, F-37 became a member of the group and attended the event."
(Moving the phrase to the front applies it to the entire predicate.)
Explicit Split:
quote:
"F-37 was a member of the group, and he attended the event; both actions were at the direction of the SPLC."
quote:
The "Rule of Proximity"
In legal and formal writing, the Rule of Last Antecedent (though usually applied to nouns) often informs how we read these structures: modifiers qualify the words immediately preceding them. Without a comma after "group" or a restructuring of the sentence, there is no grammatical link connecting the SPLC's "direction" to the initial act of being a group member.
