MLK cheated on his wife with 40 women, may have fathered a child with a mistress, was funded by communists, laughed as his friend raped a girl the same year King won the Nobel Peace Prize, and inaugurated “diversity, equity, and inclusion.”

I didn’t have enough characters to describe how verifiably terrible and evil MLK is in a single tweet, give me a break!
Every “right-wing conspiracy theory” about King is not only true but the truth is worse than people understand, from his concrete connections to communism through Stanley Levison and Clarence Jones (among others) and the web of affairs that King had across the country
It might be unpopular to say this now on the right given how the FBI has become so politically left-wing in a sense, but King actually deserved to be surveilled and exposed
The hideous monument in Boston is actually extremely appropriate for two reasons.
When King’s wife confronted him about his affairs and absence from home, he just told her to go have affairs of her own. The Boston monument depicts “the embrace” they shared when King won the Noble Peace Prize in 1964, the same year he laughed and watched his friend raped a girl
Much of what I wrote in the article above draws from the work of two left-wing scholars: David Garrow and Murray Friedman. Garrow won a Pulitzer Prize for a biography of King in 1987. Friedman was executive director of the Philadelphia chapter of the American Jewish Committee.
So critics of people like me who care about King's *real* and awful legacy have to reckon with the fact that most of the evidence against King comes from fellow travelers, people who have defended him and were or are otherwise allied with him.
My article is having the intended effect!
The fundamental difference between all those men and King is that they were good and decent men and King was not.
If you're angry about me citing leftist historians who are pro-King, you're going to hate learning about the time King's closest friend and successor as president of SCLC confirmed the FBI's claims about King's degeneracy. chicagotribune.com
Ralph Abernathy was King's closest friend during the civil rights era and the man King picked to succeed him as leader of the SCLC. When he published a book detailing King's depravity, people couldn't really deny the claims. They just said he was jealous. sun-sentinel.com
