When these organizations run past their original intent they don’t fade away, they pivot. The ACLU was created to allow for free speech, particularly the war speech censoring during WW1 created by none other than Woodrow Wilson. Of course if you read Wikipedia they blame conservatives, but don’t actually mention the Sedition Act because that was all Dem baby. So over time the ACLU pivoted from free speech to civil rights. Of course, by the 1960’s the group was overrun by Marxists fresh out of indoctrination and well, the rest was inevitable.
