美国司法部对南方贫困法律中心（SPLC）的欺诈起诉，引发了被该组织列入“仇恨地图”的群体的迅速反弹，许多团体称这些指控为自己多年来被贴上极端主义标签一事洗清了冤屈。
阿拉巴马州中区大陪审团提交了一份11项罪名的起诉书，指控南方贫困法律中心犯有6项电信欺诈罪、4项银行欺诈罪以及1项共谋洗钱罪，随后外界的目光转向了这家自称与仇恨团体有关的组织本身所标注的仇恨团体名单。
南方贫困法律中心“仇恨地图”上较为知名的团体之一是美国家庭研究理事会（FRC），该组织曾在2012年遭遇一名武装男子袭击，据攻击者称，他是在南方贫困法律中心的网站上查到了该组织的信息。
家庭研究理事会主席托尼·珀金斯当时表示，来自费尔法克斯县的弗洛伊德·李·科金斯二世——后来被判处25年监禁——应对打伤该组织的楼宇经理负责，但他认为“他是被南方贫困法律中心这样的组织授予了行凶许可，该组织……因为我们捍卫家庭、坚守传统正统基督教价值观，就给我们贴上仇恨团体的标签”。

科金斯签署的犯罪供述承认，他之所以袭击家庭研究理事会，是因为该组织的观点，包括反对同性婚姻的倡导，并打算尽可能多地“杀死雇员”。
南方贫困法律中心当时否认了这种关联，且未立即回应福克斯新闻数字频道对其仇恨地图上的团体提出的反弹置评请求。
周二，珀金斯称对南方贫困法律中心的起诉是一个“受欢迎的进展”，标志着“长期以来的虚假陈述和伤害”的开端。
“多年来，南方贫困法律中心利用其平台给与自己政见不同的组织贴上标签并针对性打击，常常模糊了合理关切与意识形态攻击之间的界限，”他在提及科金斯袭击事件时说道。
“南方贫困法律中心的捐赠基金超过7.5亿美元，其中包括海外账户，他们不仅应该为所做的事情负责，还应该为造成的破坏负责，”珀金斯说。
中西部家长权利组织“清醒伊利诺伊州”的负责人香农·阿德科克在回应南方贫困法律中心的起诉时指出，该组织曾发布“针对我们这些仅为捍卫家长权利和自由而发声的父母的极具煽动性的言论”。

“我全国各地的许多朋友也被南方贫困法律中心贴了标签，而与此同时，美国各地有合法的恐怖分子在活动，他们却对这些行为视而不见，反而针对伊利诺伊州的守法民众以及我们的朋友自由妈妈促进会、印度教育家长团体、‘勇气是一种习惯’等诸多组织，”阿德科克说。“所以我们为这个消息感到高兴。这是联邦调查局的明智之举。”
阿德科克表示，她会买一瓶凯歌香槟来庆祝。
“清醒伊利诺伊州”的官网利用此次起诉发起募捐活动，建议新捐赠者在下拉菜单中选择“去死吧，南方贫困法律中心，你的仇恨无法让我们闭嘴”作为捐赠理由。
PragerU是由保守派评论员丹尼斯·普拉格创立的教育媒体非营利组织，也被列入南方贫困法律中心的“仇恨地图”。
该组织首席执行官玛丽莎·斯特赖特周三告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，美国司法部的起诉似乎证实了人们对南方贫困法律中心的所有认知。
“所谓的骗局式欺诈暴露了该中心的真面目：一个伪装成民权斗士的左翼政治机构，本身就是一个真正的仇恨团体，”斯特赖特说，PragerU还重点推介了其近期发布的分析南方贫困法律中心的视频：《自称反仇恨团体，实则仇恨团体》。

“任何稍微关注此事的人都知道，它的‘仇恨地图’不过是南方贫困法律中心想要摧毁的观点清单，”斯特赖特补充道。

致力于打击激进伊斯兰意识形态传播和激进伊斯兰威胁的组织“为美国行动”也通过创始人布里吉特·加布里埃尔作出回应。
“多年前，南方贫困法律中心就给我和我的组织‘为美国行动’贴上了仇恨团体的标签，”加布里埃尔在一份声明中说。
加布里埃尔在黎巴嫩内战期间多年遭受恐怖威胁、包括穆斯林武装分子摧毁了她的房屋后，移居美国并创立了该组织。
“[南方贫困法律中心]曾称我们是美国最大的仇恨团体。这个头衔我们引以为傲。看到南方贫困法律中心最终为他们的谎言承担责任，真是一件好事。”
自由妈妈促进会联合创始人蒂娜·德斯科维奇表示，该组织的分支机构占南方贫困法律中心“仇恨地图”上名单的一半以上。
“[这仅仅是因为]我们正在赋予家长权力，让他们参与学区会议，并且我们承认男孩和女孩之间存在差异，”她告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。
“南方贫困法律中心的仇恨地图已经无数次被用来对付我们，包括执法部门在培训手册中引用南方贫困法律中心的说法，将我们列为极端组织。我们敦促所有向这个危险组织捐款的人立即停止捐款，并呼吁所有过去曾利用他们的组织谴责他们的行为。”

福克斯新闻数字频道也联系了移民研究中心及其主席马克·克里科里安征求评论。
移民研究中心向福克斯新闻数字频道提供了克里科里安2023年撰写的一篇关于被列入仇恨地图的专栏文章，他在文中称，南方贫困法律中心“已经低调了一段时间，此前爆发了多起涉及种族主义和性骚扰的丢脸丑闻，导致该组织包括创始人莫里斯·迪尔斯在内的大多数领导层被解雇”。
“该组织年度‘仇恨地图’的发布推迟了数月，引发了人们对内部正在发生变化的怀疑。但并没有什么变化——最新的诅咒不过是故技重施。如果想亲眼看看，自己谷歌一下就知道了，”他写道。
“移民研究中心当然还在；运营了30年后，我们在2016年特朗普当选后恰好被正式列为‘仇恨团体’。”

SPLC faces blowback from ‘hate map’ targets after DOJ fraud indictment
April 22, 2026 1:31pm EDT / Fox News
Family Research Council, PragerU, Moms for Liberty and others say the charges confirm years of ideological targeting

The DOJ’s fraud indictment of the Southern Poverty Law Center is prompting swift reaction from groups named on its “hate map,” many casting the charges as vindication after years of being labeled extremist.
After a grand jury in the Middle District of Alabama returned an 11-count indictment charging the SPLC with six counts of wire fraud, four counts of bank fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering, attention turned to groups the allegedly hate-group-linked organization itself has labeled as hate groups.
One of the more prominent names on SPLC’s “hate map” is the Family Research Council, which was the target of a 2012 attack by an armed man who allegedly found the group’s information on the SPLC’s website.
FRC President Tony Perkins said at the time that Floyd Lee Corkins II of Fairfax County — since sentenced to 25 years in prison — was responsible for wounding his building manager but believes “he was given a license by a group such as the Southern Poverty Law Center, who… labeled us a hate group because we defend the family and we stand for traditional, orthodox Christianity.”

Corkins’ signed statement of offense acknowledged he targeted FRC because of its views, including advocacy against gay marriage, and intended to kill “as many employees” as he could.
The SPLC denied the connection at the time and did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment on the blowback from groups featured on its hate map.
On Tuesday, Perkins called the indictment of the SPLC a “welcome development” that marks the beginning of a “long pattern of misrepresentation and harm.”
“For years, the SPLC has used its platform to label and target organizations with whom it disagrees, often blurring the line between legitimate concern and ideological attack,” he said, before noting Corkins’ attack.
“With over $750 million in their endowment which includes offshore accounts, the SPLC should be held responsible not only for what was done, but for the damage left behind,” Perkins said.
Shannon Adcock, leader of the Midwestern parental rights group Awake Illinois, responded to SPLC’s indictment by noting it had posted “incredibly inflammatory rhetoric against us as parents simply for standing up for our parental rights and for our liberty.”

“Many of my friends across the country have been labeled by the Southern Poverty Law Center as well, while meanwhile there are legitimate terrorists that are running around this country and they are silent on those efforts while targeting law-abiding people such as Illinois and our friends Moms for Liberty, Parents of Indian Education, Courage is a Habit and many others,” Adcock said. “So we celebrate this news. This is a good move by the FBI.”
Adcock said she would purchase a bottle of Veuve Clicquot to celebrate.
Awake Illinois’ website used the indictment to solicit donations, suggesting new donors choose “Suck it, Southern Poverty Law Center, your hate can’t cancel us” as a reason on its dropdown menu.
PragerU, the education media nonprofit founded by conservative commentator Dennis Prager, was also featured on SPLC’s “hate map.”
Marissa Streit, the group’s CEO, told Fox News Digital on Wednesday that the DOJ’s indictment appears to confirm everything that people knew about the SPLC.
“The alleged shell game fraud reveals the Center as what it really is: a leftist political outfit and an actual hate group masquerading as one fighting for civil rights,” Streit said, as PragerU also highlighted its own recent video analysis of the SPLC: “The Anti-Hate Group That Is A Hate Group.”

“Anyone paying any attention knows its ‘hate map’ is just a list of ideas the SPLC wants to destroy,” Streit added.

ACT for America, a group focused on combating the spread of radical Islamic ideology and threats from radical Islam, also responded via its founder Brigitte Gabriel.
“The SPLC labeled me and my organization, ACT for America a hate group year ago,” Gabriel said in a statement.
Gabriel founded the group after coming to America following years of living under threat of terrorism during the Lebanese Civil War, including attacks from Muslim militants who destroyed her house.
“[SPLC] considered us America’s largest hate group. A title we were proud to hold. It’s a wonderful thing to see the SPLC finally being held accountable for their lies.”
Moms for Liberty cofounder Tina Descovich said the organization’s affiliates make up more than half of the SPLC’s “hate map.”
“[That’s] simply because we’re empowering parents to get involved in their school board meetings and because we recognize the difference between boys and girls,” she told Fox News Digital.
“The SPLC’s hate map has been weaponized against us countless times, including by law enforcement where training manuals labeled us as an extremist group by citing the SPLC. We urge all who give to this dangerous organization to stop doing so immediately, and we call on all organizations who have used them in the past to condemn their actions.”

Fox News Digital also reached out to the Center for Immigration Studies and its president, Mark Krikorian, for comment.
CIS pointed Fox News Digital to a column Krikorian wrote about being listed on the hate map in 2023, where he said the SPLC has been “lying low for some time, since the eruption of multiple humiliating scandals involving racism and sexual harassment that led to the firing of most of the group’s leadership, including founder Morris Dees.”
“The appearance of its annual ‘hate map’ was months late, raising suspicions that there were changes afoot. No such luck — the latest anathema was just pronounced. Google it yourself, if you want to see it,” he wrote.
“The Center for Immigration Studies is still there, of course; after operating for three decades, we graduated to ‘hate group’ status right after Trump’s election in 2016 — coincidentally.”
