One thing about Hoft’s plagiarism has me curious - What if this wasn’t actually plagiarized at all, but was done with the CoCC’s tacit approval?

After all, one of the primary goals of the white supremacist community is to have their ideas put forward, and accepted in the mainstream public? What better way to do that than through a “respected” (by the rightwing) individual like Hoft? Don’t put the CoCC name on it, because that immediately makes the article toxic to all except the extremists. However, if more and more of these articles start showing up via willing proxies like Hoft, then the white nationalists can start to come in and claim that “hey, you’re already agreeing with us, why not join us” recruiting efforts? It plays right into their long-term plans.
