Ku Klux Klan was never designated as a terrorist organisation.

They terrorized, burned,bombed,lynched black Americans for decades.

On 22 September 2025, US President Donald Trump signed an executive order designating Antifa as a domestic terrorist organisation.

that need to be harnessed and turned into slaves.

Because designating someone a "Domestic Terrorist Organization" is not a thing the US does or has ever done. Such a designation is only maningful in the deranged mind of Donald Trump.
