Yours is the falsehood. White supremacists were not hiding in the shadows two years ago. Violent attacks by right-wing extremists in the US have been on the rise since 2001 and all through the Obama years. They're currently perpetrating about 300 attacks per year.

The only reason you're paying attention to white supremacy today, and ignored it when Roof committed his atrocity, is because you think you can attack Trump on the issue. And what a lame attack it is. According to you, white supremacist groups have been "emboldened" by Trump failing to immediately distance himself following the Charlottesville violence. On what grounds do you make that astonishing assertion? Has there been a sudden spike in right-wing extremist violence in the last week? No. Are right-wing extremists marching on Washington? No. In fact, nothing has changed at all except that a sitting US president went on the record and explicitly condemned his country's white supremactists, neo-Nazis et al.
