Right-wing extremism refers to a political ideology that promotes extreme nationalist, racist, or anti-government beliefs. Individuals or groups associated with this ideology often advocate for the superiority of a particular race or ethnicity and may oppose immigration and multiculturalism. They may also reject democratic principles and support authoritarian governance. This form of extremism can manifest in various ways, including hate crimes, violent protests, and the formation of militant groups. Notable examples include organizations like the Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazi groups, which have historically engaged in acts of violence and intimidation to promote their agendas.
