https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/dec/27/its-frightening-how-far-right-is-infiltrating-everyday-cultureThe two men chop peppers, slice aubergines and giggle into the camera as they delve into the art of vegan cooking. Both are wearing ski masks and T-shirts bearing Nazi symbols.The German videos – titled Balaclava Kitchen – started in 2014 and ran for months before YouTube took down the channel for violating its guidelines.But it offered a glimpse of how far-right groups have seized on cultural production – from clothing brands to top 40 music – to normalise their ideas, in a process that researchers say has hit new heights in the age of social media.“It’s frightening, honestly,” said Katherine Kondor, a researcher with the Norwegian Center for Holocaust and Minority Studies. “You can be radicalised sitting on your couch.”In affiliation with the Center for Research on Extremism (C-REX), Kondor is leading a six-country project looking at how the extreme right uses aesthetics, from fitness influencers to memes and stickers, to spread their views across Europe.From Sweden to Spain, researchers found that extremist messaging was woven through cultural aspects of everyday life, both online and offline.“In Hungary we have some examples of extreme right bands becoming mainstream because they’re on the top 40 chart. I mean, what’s more normal than being on the top 40?” Kondor said.
“I have a stepson who sometimes sends videos and then I go down the rabbit hole to see who created them and it turns out it’s a far-right influencer.”So-called “tradwives”, referring to female content creators who promote traditional gender roles on social media, are another example.As the numbers of women embracing the concept online surges, the content’s far-right roots have been increasingly obscured. Even so, the views they often promote – from anti-feminism to a nostalgia for an imagined past – continue to boost far-right aims.These cultural elements serve as gateways, at times helping to reel people into extremism, Kondor said. “I think there’s a mistaken idea that people join the far right because they believe in that ideology and want to meet like-minded people,” she said. “But that’s not how it works.”While there are some who are driven by prejudices against certain groups or specific beliefs, or others who tag along with friends who are already involved, many are lured by the subcultures that encase these movements, she said.“They start listening to a band that they really like and start going to concerts of that band. Then they start meeting people there and it can escalate in that way,” Kondor explained.“When people find things that work for their aesthetic or their vibe, or they find music that they really like, that can really influence a person.”The link between extreme ideas and the cultural tools they opt to use is not always straightforward, she added, citing the example of a group of far-right extremists in the Netherlands with a penchant for hosting wine-tasting events.“They’ve also started their own food delivery,” she said. “It’s just wild that you can be ordering food from the far right and not know.”
Extremists have long used culture to foster a sense of belonging among its members and gain attention among the wider public, said Greta Jasser, a research associate at Germany’s Institute for Democracy and Civil Society, which is also part of the six-country project.Previously, however, their strength in doing so relied on the talent pool of their members, as musicians, artists and camera operators were needed to create content. With the advent of generative AI, this is no longer the case.“Now there’s technology that we can use to generate an image or video in an instant or music within just a couple of minutes,” said Jasser. “So the playbook is old, but the speed is much faster.”The economics of social media have also transformed the process, leading to questions regarding who is creating far-right content and their motivations.“It could be posted by a bot. It could be anyone and anything wanting to generate income from producing as many AI videos and images as possible,” said Jasser.“Which then interestingly calls into question how ideologically driven many of these accounts are, or if it’s a way to generate revenue.”As the research continues, Kondor and her team have been weighing how best to educate the public about their findings, mulling strategies such as online content or tools that could help people better recognise the far right and the myriad of cultural elements they’re producing.“I think it’s often shocking to people,” said Kondor. “Right now it’s dangerous because we’re seeing a steady rise of the far right in every aspect of society. It’s more important than ever to figure out how to mitigate this.”

>>1469415Yeah and they're giggling because 10 minutes before the video the eggplant was shoved up one of their asses while he sucked the other off.
>>1469418The altright is great because the only real barrier for entry is whether or not you're racist. Unironically the most inclusive political movement.
>>1469418You are fucking weird seek help
>>1469410far right doesn't even exist its a leftist boogeyman but leftists have been such insufferable pieces of shits for the past decade no one cares anymore.leftists will nitpick and claim a small group of maybe a hundred represent the entire non democrat demographic, but then screech and moan when people bring up their hypocrisy with trans and antifa bad actorsthey can get fcked
>>1469429Nick Fuentes got hosted at the fucking white house. Shut the fuck up.
>>1469430sure and i give a fuck why when CNN anchors openly on national network complimented and supported antifathe pendelum's swinging back you leftist fucks you didn't moderate your own now don't be surprised when no one cares when you fucking perish
>>1469410>two retard nazis are making cooking videos on youtubeOH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!
>>1469432I'm frightened.
>>1469410Alex Jonseler would be proud…
>>1469434What next? Hitler having a rap battle? It's over with! Nazis took over youtube!
>>1469410>Blog and editorial articles are not acceptable.
>>1469410you VILL CONSVME THE SLVP
>>1469430Nick Fuentes isn't even alt right because he's not even right. He's a fucking socialist in every one of his policies. The left, by screaming Wolf at anything even vaguely right-leaning from them (Who consider Stalin too alt right for their tastes) have now made the biggest opposing voting block in history. There is no other political climate that would get someone like Trump elected. >>1469436The Jonesler isn't even alt right, he's a fucking Christian Republican from the 90s but even those are considered Nazi adjacent, now. >>1469440All news is just blog and editorials.
>>1469440>https://www.theguardian.com/world/Not an editorial.
You can get called far right nowadays for saying you want freedom of speech, or that after more than a decade of migration crisis we should have stricter migration.The far right isn't growing, the far left is just getting louder
>>1469445Good post.
they should really fix the bot problem on this board
>>1469449Too bad a basic education couldn't fix your lack of capitalization or punctuation.
>>1469450am i throwing your translator app off again? so sorry
>>1469451你妈在地狱里给黑人口交 Oops I slipped!
>>1469429Literally this 1 million percent
>>1469430Nick is the result of the left pushing extremism further and further. Expect those people to get a lot more popular and winning elections soon
>>1469454esl
>>1469442>Guys Nick Fuentes is actually a socialist And other fun things you can say to make it clear you're either an engagement bot or a fucking moron.
>>1469445>You can get called far right nowadays for saying you want freedom of speech>Says the party who wants people banned from even stepping foot in the US if they made a joke about a dead podcaster
>>1469426It's not my fault that two guys dressed in silly outfits giggling and making vegan food is gay as fuck.
>>1469460>learn that America isn't open to everyone>seethe eternally
>>1469430And Kamala helped with a bail fund for BLM and Antifa rioters. You shut the fuck up.
>>1469460>Nooooooooo you can't kick out guests who cheer for dead Americans killed by terrorists
>>1469466>>1469469So you agree, America does not have freedom of speech.
>>1469468>you need to recognize my drug induced hallucinations as reality!
>>14694721) non-Americans don't have the same rights as actual American citizens.2) Don't cry about freedom of speech now when you had no problem censoring conservatives during the Biden years.
>>1469474>“Chip in now to the @MNFreedomFund to help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota,”Did Kamala tweet this? Yes or no.
>>1469475>1) non-Americans don't have the same rights as actual American citizens.Yeah that's not how the constitution works.
>>1469477So an illegal has the same due process as a natural born citizen?
>>1469478Yes. That's how due process works; there isn't a category of people who it doesn't apply to.
>>1469479>Yes.Okay I'm just going to leave this here...https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/obama-deportations-court/
>>1469476back to >>1469474
>>1469481>“Chip in now to the @MNFreedomFund to help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota,”Did Kamala tweet this? Yes or no.
>>1469482>noooo, you have to engage with my mental illness!lmao, just shit out your drug logic explaining why its relevant
>>1469480Wow, that's fucked up. Clearly this is a longstanding issue that has to be addressed and we shouldn't continue it.
>>1469480Democrats think it's okay when they do it
>>1469475>1) non-Americans don't have the same rights as actual American citizens.Your constitution claims otherwise by the way>Don't cry about freedom of speech now when you had no problem censoring conservatives during the Biden years.I'm not American, but thanks for reiterating that indeed, no one there actually has free speech.
>>1469487>Your constitution claims otherwise by the way>YourGet the fuck out.
>>1469488He's right though.
>>1469489He's really not. He's just another foreigner that doesn't understand our laws and still thinks he's an entitled to have an opinion on how our country is run. Visa holders do not have freedom of speech, for example. But he wouldn't know that because he's not american.
>>1469484And yet you only ever open your fucking mouth about it when Trump is in office. Why?
>>1469491were fascists always this whiny
>>1469445>>1469448Get a room you two
>>1469458Socialist, fascist, commie, nazi, etc, all mean the same exact thing now. I've been called a nazi and a commie in the same thread before.
>>1469490I'm Canadian so yeah, but pretty familiar with your country. Tell me where in the constitution or it's amendments it says anything like that? Spoiler, it says the opposite.
>>1469505>I'm CanadianSorry about the coming annexation bro. >Spoiler, it says the opposite.Visa applicants willingly surrender their right to free speech and free association before the enter the country. It's a part of the application process. The same goes for public employees and members of the US military. Illegals are the exception, but they need to be deported in any case.
>>1469426Homophobia is a sign of projection
>>1469506As a Canadian, if it weren't for simps like you being a part of the nation and voting for people like Trump, I'd be glad to be annexed
>>1469478Yes, you fucking retard.
>>1469410A far right renaissance ain't happening, bud. If it was I'd be a happy chud.
>>1469532But that's wrong you fucking retard.
>that's wrongBut even those who aren't US citizens still have the right of due process. The 5th & 14th Amendments ensure they have that right.>that's wrongThanks for admitting you're an an enemy of the US, it's basis: the Constitution, and everything it stands for, 1469535
>>1469431antifa is anti fascist in other words not the bad guys, you people need to keep up with current events lol
>>1469505I'm from the US, the constitution is sold in rolls, double ply, very soft and septic tank safe.
>>1469505So you admit that you're Indian
>>1469478>>1469479>>1469487>>1469488>>1469537The US constitution does not distinguish between a person's residency status, it applies to all persons, the limiting factor is US law; if US does not have legal jurisdiction in the matter, then the Constitution does not apply to the person
>>1469549nazi is the "National Socialist German Workers' Party" therefore its not fascism dipshit, facism and socialist are polar opposites on the political spectrum.you need to learn history and start looking at what they do and not what they call themselves.but what do i expect from a retarded domestic terroristbet you think PETA cares about animals too fucking loser
>>1469559Federal law dramatically changes the due process owed to each individual based on their immigration status. Illegals are receiving the due process designated by congress under the Alien Exclusion Act. That due process is expedited deportation.
>>1469563Are you suggesting that Nazis were not fascists because they called themselves socialist? Are you really that fucking stupid? Or are you suggesting that because Nazi’s lied and used the word socialism to hide their fascism, that “antifa” is doing the same thing with the word fascism?Comparing the nazi party that seized power in Germany to people who self identify as anti-fascism in response to rising fascism in our current administration is just as stupid. The Trump admin is being fascist. You can say you like those actions but you can not deny the actions as fascist. Go ask your idiot right wing AI mouthpeace Grok if Trump admin is inacting fascist actions. Musk forces hard core right wing ideas in that crap and it still confirms fascist action from this admin. Antifa is antifascist. If you line Trump’s actions you like fascism. Deal with it.
>>1469565>antifa is anti fascist in other words not the bad guys>muh muh the rules only apply to you and not meyou're an objective bigotted facist retard and you're omg nazis were bad but i'm not i'm not a doublestandard hypocrite is patheticjust go ahead and kill yourself no one will miss you you're a pathetic loser narcassist with a hero complex>Antifa is antifascist.pfft pathetic keep screeching it some more and maybe some retarded teens will believe you oh wait that's you
>>1469565one party took over all of social media and collectively banned wrong thinkone party encourages domestic terrorismone party attacked people for thought crimes for a decadeone party is filled of hypocritesand guess what its you.you're a fucking leftist cult member whose too pathetic to get out of your echo chamber and your stupid little rant just proved it.you're a horrible wretch of a human being and its frankly pathetic and cringy how you keep going "they were bad but i'm good see i'm named good boy".ya deal with it, you're not the every person you're a far-left terrorist adjacent cult member who everyone wants purged. People like you pushed people into voting for trump because if the alternative is you literally anyone would be better.But please keep being ignorant I'll be looking forward to when you get apprehended by homeland security and raped to death in prison.
>>1469565>self identify as anti-fascism in response to rising fascism in our current administration is just as stupidby committing political terrorism, assaulting people for having different opinions and now trying to gaslight people that oh "we're called good guys we're good". see we're like the war heroes in 1940s.ya definitely not facism everybody we're called not* fascism and people are stupid enough to fall for it
>>1469567copypasta is bannable here esl shill
>>1469569calling for bans is bannable dipshitnow go back to your hivemind and kindly rope yourself before you harm anymore innocent victims like me
>>1469567Good post. Accurate..
>>1469565>are you suggesting that because Nazi’s lied and used the word socialism to hide their fascism, that “antifa” is doing the same thing with the word fascismHonestly it makes a lot of sense, and that's not an incorrect interpretation
>>1469570and so is being an unhinged and extremely obvious samefag
>>1469565so what exactly is antifacist about billions in property damage via riots, taking over part of a state via CHOP and going to rallies masked and cloaked while using a bikelock to smash people's heads in for being there?I wish you had your head smashed in with a bikelock.doesn't take a genius to see you have braindamage anyways.oh and now outright assassinating homeland security agents for idk keeping the peace i guess
>>1469507>You're disgusted of turds? You must secretly love shit
>>1469599I am India!!!Notice though, how the fag knows so deep in it's heart that being gay is disgusting so he projects it back onto you?It's always been an interesting way fight 'homophobia' which is based on logic and reason with emotion-based horseshit.
>facismHi, shill.Still not going to History classes as well as English ones, I see. But what should /news/ expect from a foreigner committing terrorist acts against education?I bet you think that Mussolini's regime wasn't fascist either, loser. Why wasn't Benito rescued by the rather right wing General MacArthur who wanted to drop nukes on 'Retardation Targets' in Korea & China after WWII? If the Third Reich wasn't 'fascist', why was Mussolini rescued by Hitler? Why didn't Eric Arthur Blair fight for the other side in the Spanish Civil War if 'Fascism = Socialism'? If 'Fascism = Socialism', why didn't the Resistance in France aid the Vichy side? Why did they do what they did to collaborators after D-Day if they weren't Antifa: if 'Socialism = Fascism'?>Illiterate Shill: 'Facts prove my subjective rightist opinions wrong, and I don't like that!Pfft, pathetic. Keep screeching it some more and maybe some retarded teens will listen to you. Oh wait, that's you.
>>1469606The question this post raises is, "What's wrong with fascism?"
>What's wrong with fascism?Everything, or The Man in the High Castle would be a documentary.Gee, I wonder why that scenario by Philip K. Dick and the adaptation by Amazon was just fiction? Certainly why that was a massive success, unlike that which they adapted: especially why the regime in that scenario couldn't even get Operation Sea Lion from beyond the planning stages in RL, unlike Operation Overlord. And why certain games by id Software show how the Doommeisters of Texas make no secret of that which also Indiana Jones really hates and no it's not snakes
Fascism sounds like a small price to pay to be able to skip dimensions.
A certain question raised by posts here is "What's wrong with what based Bomber Harris & his RAF did to fascists?"
>>1469624>Everything,So nothing then?
The RAF bombed fascists. There was nothing to it. Just push a button.
>>1469708I wish those people lived to see the current state of england, lmao.
>subhumans burned in WWII via bombs dropped from Avro Lancasterslmao>the current state of subhumans wishing others would be in lockstep with their wrong opinions: but they never will, because they are superior people not allowing into their superior minds wrong opinions spewed by inferior subhumansRAF veterans must lmao at how supposed 'Aryan Ubermensch' in 'superior' Messerschmitt Me-262 jets were shot down - three in one day over Berlin in March 1945 - by USAAF pilots of North American P-51 Mustangs: with red tails.And how subhumans today will never live down the fact that those who were actually 'Aryan Untermensch' - inferior subhumans - were shot down by based Tuskegee Airmen: superior humans.Lmao.
>>1469709I wish you could go back in time to be in Dresden to see for yourself the state of fascism then & now
>>1469712OK but that says nothing about fascism's validity and comes off as unhinged seething into the ether.
>Fascism never had any validityThat which refuses to say 'Fascism never had the right to exist in the first place' and is reduced to projection and comes off as unhinged seething into nothing.
>>1469720Why? What's wrong with fascism? Explain it to me.
>>1469724>Fascism is an ultranationalist, authoritarian political ideology prioritizing the nation above the individual, characterized by a totalitarian single-party state, a powerful dictator, extreme militarism, suppression of opposition, and strict control over society and economy, often using violence to achieve national unity and strength, contrasting sharply with democracy and liberalism.Not him, but given this basic definition, I would say if you can't see why the very premise is terrible then you're a sociopath. To which I'm sure you have some edgelord reaponse you think is cool, but there's a reason killing Nazis is so widely recognized as good. I'm sure you hate authoritarian Jews (rightly so), so understand that all the reasons you hate them, most of the rest of the world hates you. You are the exact same scum with different clothes.
>>1469750By that definition the US is fascist. Which is some leftist "anybody but me is a fascist" faggotry.
>>1469410The devil always uses the taboo to get attention. That how I know Trump is not the devil, just owned by him. He used the 'intrigue' of Q, blah, blah, blah. Long story short, yep. You guys fucked up and will pay forever.
>>1469410>random vegan youtubers have Nazi symbolsWHOA! THis is so FRIGHTENING! I'm so scared!this is so much more concerning then leftists in every western country pushing for open borders and anti-White racism and misandry.
>>1469462I'm sorry to say but you must be a faggotIf a man plays flute for the purpose of making music it's ok, but if a man thinks playing flute is similar to sucking cock then you are a faggot.Haven't you seen Bruno? The scene with the priest is funny as hell but it's kinda true and you are the most obvious projector here.
>>1469752It's funny how the truth almost gets through to you then you wave your hands and ignore it. >>1469800>Haven't you seen Bruno?Of course not. Sorry if that upsets you, rabbi.
>>1469799Don't forget all the assassinations, attempted assassinations and other terrorism.
>>1469804you sure talk to yourself a lot
>>1469805You sure need your fucking meds, esl shill.
>>1469806projecting again, are we?
>>1469750I hope you realize all of the above refers more to democrats then republicans.>most of the rest of the world hates you. You are the exact same scum with different clothes.no self-awareness since you just justified it I hope you don't cry when people hunt you down like the terrorist you are.
>>1469454This. When Canada and Greenland have an American flag over them, just remember that the left was responsible for this. They forced us to do this. We don't want to fight but we will when we are forced and like a sturmwolf we do not stop, we do not forgive, and we never forget.
