US facing surge in rightwing extremists and militias

The US is facing a surge in anti-government extremist groups and armed militias, driven by deepening hostility on the right to Barack Obama, anger over the economy, and the increasing propagation of conspiracy theories by parts of the mass media such as Fox News.

The Southern Poverty Law Centre, the US's most prominent civil rights group focused on hate organisations, said in a report that extremist "patriot" groups "came roaring back to life" last year as their number jumped nearly 250% to more than 500 with deepening ties to conservative mainstream politics.


quote:

The Tea Parties and similar groups that have sprung up in recent months cannot fairly be considered extremist groups, but they are shot through with rich veins of radical ideas, conspiracy theories and racism," the report says.


Full story

I do believe that they are talking about groups that some people on these boards actively support.

Wouldn't the ballot box be the correct place to exercise their right to "correct" that perceived problem?

Not according to some, you have to remember that some on these boards think that Timothy McVeigh was justified, or a patsy depending on their mood.

The ideologies associated with the far right are fascism, Nazism, racial supremacists (especially neo-fascists and neo-Nazis group), religious extremists, and other ultra-nationalist or reactionary ideologies and movements. The terms are often used to imply that someone is an extremist.
