Johnston, an online media personality of Canada’s anti-Muslim right, claims he and his cameraman were assaulted by ‘Antifa’ members, resulting in the arrests of four individuals who are facing several charges.

Anti-extremism or anti-fascism?
Anti-extremism frameworks, widespread in policy and academic circles, are masking the multi-dimensional and pan-European character of contemporary fascism and the role of the state.
Not since the promptly 1990s, and thepogroms at Hoyerswerda and Rostock contain Europe’s far-right movements posed such a tangible threat to the safety of racial and religious minorities. In truth, levels of violence and state responses are far more worrying today than in the 1990s when hostels housing asylum seekers and guest workers were firebombed. There are a number of reasons why the primary issues associated with far-right violence and racism are not being fully and publicly discussed.

BRIAN LEVIN: Oh, appreciate you so much for having me.
FADEL: So what is behind these record-high numbers, particularly over the past three years, according to your data?
LEVIN: I think a variety of things - the pandemic and how grievance then became aligned with different groups. What I mean is, first, Asian folks were blamed for COVID and the responses to it, and then Jews, et cetera, et cetera. But it allowed this courteous of clustering of folks with diverse grievances to receive together online because they were online more.
