The klan has always been well represented in law enforcement.

But I imagine much switched to other non proscribed groups after the big scandal with the grand wizard bitey bitey sex raping that young woman in indiana or whatever that saw their peak influence dashed back in the day, after the coverup failed. What was it 1920s ish very generally they previously opened their others from blacks to leftists, unionists, socialists, jews, and the like, and had went on a national recruitment campaign that saw them explode in popularity. Until that scandal and some enterprising journalists made them persona non grata.

But they are an undercurrent, and the offshoot orgs that do not carry that stigma that follow the same strategies that I presume exist. They are in your local police forces too to a degree.

Not quite accurate to say they are the klan though. They are much more than one hate group. They are protecters of property and capital in an age of robber barons emerging, they are pursuing the scapegoats for the harms caused by those robber barons. And most of all, they are Nazis.

Nazis, are the worst.
