Eh, it doesn't matter if this is a legacy law passed in the days of the Cold War, when the Communist Party in the U.S. actually promoted violent overthrow. All that matters is that the left-leaning elitists have someone else they can call "backward" or "ignorant". No sense in letting facts get in the way of a perfectly good argument, right?
