Molyneux is detestable but SLPC has no credibility. They recently settled a defamation lawsuit against Majid Nawaz an anti-extremism Muslim reformer who they labeled as an anti-muslim extremist. It's in the same vein as people who call Ben Shapiro, an orthodox jew, a Nazi. It's simply ridiculous hysterics.

Which of the quotes are you disputing the accuracy of?
Where did I say I dispute the quotes? I said Molyneux is a dirtbag but SPLC is not a credible org.
The only reason to bring up their credibility in this context is to call into question the accuracy of the quotes.
No... It's to point out that the particular claim to authority that SPLC is the adjudicator on who is racist or not is stupid. OP could have easily posted the quote directly from Molyneux's twitter or wherever he rants at without invoking SPLC.
