For the past five years or so, everyone and their nan has been accused of being a fascist, a neo-Nazi, or whatever. Often these accusations come from angry internet addicts who can’t take a joke.

The organised extremists who wish to violently cut off someone else’s freedom because they’re a different race, religion, sexuality, gender, or whatever. To help understand where the real threats are coming from, we’ve started Skeleton Key—a monthly report on contemporary far-right militancy all over the world. It’ll be available only at patreon.com/popularfront. Sign up for the $5 bonus tier or above to get access to this project and much more. The first episode is now live. | |||
