Fake Hate

Daily WireThe letter Lopez claimed he received read, in part: “Don’t waste your time trying to become anything in this county we will make sure you never win and your family suffers along with all the other f****** Mexicans in the area!” The letter ends by stating, “Sincerely, America!”

Lopez previously ran for a commissioner seat in Umatilla County but lost in the primary. He reported the letter to Hermiston Police, who investigated Lopez’s claims and determined that, yet again, someone who publicly claimed to be the victim of a hate crime was not, in fact, a victim.

KEPR-TV News reported Tuesday that police determined Lopez sent the letter to himself and that Lopez verbally and in a written statement admitted to fabricating the letter.

At this point I'm just keeping track of these so I can explain why my default position is to disbelieve claims of racism until proven otherwise.

An odd twist on Fake Hate

Fake Hate usually involves someone faking an incident of racism, supposedly for the purpose of fighting racism (and, without admitting it, feeding their narcissism and desire for attention). But there is another type of fake hate, apparently.

It appears someone is hiring actors to portray armed and militant Black Panthers.
