Right-wing extremism

Right-wing extremism refers to a set of beliefs and actions associated with far-right political movements that often promote nationalism, racism, and anti-government sentiments. These groups may advocate for the superiority of a particular race or culture, oppose immigration, and resist social changes, seeing themselves as protectors of a perceived traditional way of life. Their ideologies can lead to violent actions and hate crimes aimed at minority groups or government institutions. While not all right-wing views are extremist, right-wing extremism is characterized by its rejection of democratic principles and advocacy for authoritarian practices.
