The current report clearly shows that the Corona pandemic has contributed to the rise in extremism. Right-wing extremism, racism and anti-Semitism continue to pose the greatest threat.
Extremists are also increasingly using digital distribution channels for their propaganda. They are increasingly focusing on emotional topics such as social injustice and exclusion.
