It’s only been a little over three months since Dilbert creator and conservative warrior Scott Adams was taken from us and into the arms of the Lord he embraced toward the end of his life. And we still miss him every day. We expect we will continue to miss him every day for years to come, just like we miss others taken from us far too soon, like Andrew Breitbart and Norm Macdonald.
But even though Adams is no longer with us physically, we can still enjoy the gift of his thoughts and words, many of which have turned out to be quite prophetic indeed.
In the wake of the indictment against the Southern Poverty Law Center earlier this week, the X account Rothmus posted a clip from six years ago of Adams discussing the SPLC and predicting the leftist hate organization’s downfall.
We really enjoyed hearing from Adqms once again, and we think readers will as well. Watch:
“If Dr. Ben Carson made the threshold according to them, but Antifa has not, then obviously the SPLC is not a legitimate organization.”

Exceptionally well said and, as it turns out, 100 percent accurate.
Adams may not have predicted the specific cause of the SPLC’s inevitable disgrace (honestly, given the craziness of what they did, not many could have), but he did accurately note that they would soon be an embarrassment to the left, which is exactly what they are today.
I can’t remember—
did he say this before or after he was canceled for being a racist 🤔
The radical progressives really had him as a target to take out.

Unlike many alleged conservatives who have abandoned their so-called principles in the Trump era, Adams never did. What he believed was far more important to him than his popularity.
And we hope he is thoroughly enjoying his ‘I told you so’ moment in Heaven.
Yep…. And now all policies, legislation, and papers written citing the SPLC can be questioned and reversed! So much BS can be torn down from this.

No matter what happens to the SPLC — and we hope the consequences for their massive fraud are severe — the organization can never again be used as a cudgel to smear conservatives or sic the FBI on pro-lifers or parents.
That is a pretty huge victory all by itself.
And in 2020 he would’ve surely been called a conspiracy theorist. Perhaps even a propagandist. Today, he is redeemed as he was RIGHT all along!
