Donald Trump har återigen valts till president i USA. Men vad kommer att förändras? Outsidern som kringgick republikanska partiapparaten 2016 och lyftes av MAGA-rörelsen har nu bildat en regering med techmiljardärer och riskkapitalister i ryggen. Vilka föreställningar har Silicon Valleys nyreaktionära "counter-elit" tagit med in i Vita Huset?

Västvärldens åldrande befolkning har kommit att bli ett allt mer utbrett debattämne och de politiska lösningarna är ofta ideologiskt färgade. I Europa har Ungern, Italien och Polen under sina radikalnationalistiska styren de senaste åren försökt möta hotet med en åldrande befolkning och den samtidiga oviljan till invandring genom stimulanspaket för ökat barnafödande. Men politisk styrning är illa ansett av libertarianer och tech-entreprenörer. Och nu har en ny rörelse växt fram i Silicon Valley. Pronatalisterna parar ny teknik för genetisk embryoselektion med ytterhögerns metapolitik och presenterar ett kurerat barnalstrande av “rätt sorts barn” som en lösning på sina egna domedagsprofetior om en förestående befolkningskollaps.

In this week's episode, we're getting unique insights into the state of the far-right in the UK. The advocacy and research organisation HOPE Not Hate is known for its tireless work countering extremism and hate through research, intelligence, campaigning and community engagement. This work has involved infiltrating and exposing extremist movements and even terrorist groups. HOPE Not Hate recently published their State of Hate 2024 report, which we discuss in detail in the episode. Archie Macfarlane is joined by Patrik Hermansson, a senior researcher from HOPE Not Hate. We learn what it's like to go undercover in an extremist group, and the risks associated with it. We explore how far-right extremism has evolved over the years, the role of social media, and the wider societal drivers of hate.  You can read a transcript of this episode here. If you want to find out more about Tech Against Terrorism and our work, visit techagainstterrorism.org or follow us on X, where you can find resources on this topic. Resources:HOPE Not Hate's State of Hate 2024 reportPatrik's research feature on Active ClubsTAT Podcast: Active Clubs: Fitness, Fraternity, and FascismTAT Podcast: What is the #tradwives Movement?

Nazister marscherar med facklor och rasistiska slagord genom Charlottesville 2017. I ledet går svenske Patrik, antirasist och infiltratör. Den helgen sker ett högerextremt attentat i den lilla staden. Nya avsnitt från P3 Dokumentär hittar du först i Sveriges Radio Play. Patrik Hermansson infiltrerar alt right-rörelsen i England och 2017 åker han tillsammans med brittiska högerextremister till Charlottesville, Virginia, i USA. Tillsammans med amerikanska högerextremister samlas de under parollen ”Unite the right”.Bakgrunden till att de samlas just där och då, är en namninsamling för att ta bort en staty i Charlottesville som föreställer sydstatsgeneralen Robert E Lee.Initiativet som lett till att staden valt att ta bort den och andra liknande statyer av vita sydstatsgeneraler kommer från den då 15-åriga afroamerikanska studenten Zyahna Bryant. Namninsamlingen blir startpunkten för en debatt om den amerikanska historien. En växande högerextrem rörelse ser nedmonteringen av statyerna som en symbol för att det som de kallar den vita rasen håller på att bli utplånad.Den 12 augusti 2017 marscherar nazister, ku klux klan och högerextremister genom Charlottesville och skanderar rasistiska slagord. Plötsligt får de veta att deras demonstrationstillstånd har dragits tillbaka. Det jublas i de antifascistiska leden och den svenske infiltratören Patrik Hermansson känner också att han kan andas ut.

I serien "The Walk-in" eller "I hatets mitt", som den heter på svenska, skildras hur Expos brittiska systerorganisation HOPE not hate med en källa på insidan infiltrerar den nazistiska terrorgruppen National Action och förhindrar ett mord på en parlamentsledamot. Att gå undercover, att wallraffa, är en omstridd journalistisk metod som ska användas med försiktighet. Men när det inte går att skaffa information på något annat sätt kan det vara försvarligt att som journalist uppträda under falsk identitet. Under åren har både Expo och HOPE not hate använt sig av metoden för att skildra extremhögern inifrån. Daniel Poohl wallraffade redan 2001 när han anslöt sig till Nationaldemokraterna och Patrik Hermansson levde i alt-right-rörelsen som mullvad under ett år. Hur arbetar organisationen bakom I hatets mitt? Finns grupper som National Action kvar i Storbritannien? När är det egentligen försvarbart att använda sig av journalistikens kanske kraftfullaste metod – wallraffande? Och hur är det egentligen att gå undercover?

When hundreds of far-right activists gathered in Berlin earlier this month, banners and T-shirts bearing US President Donald Trump’s face could be clearly seen among the crowd. Many waved the American flag. The demonstrators, who later tried to storm the German parliament, had assembled to protest against the German government’s COVID-19 restrictions.Related: Is there a ‘Nazi emergency’ in the German city of Dresden?The US president is a popular figure among far-right groups in Europe. Patrik Hermansson went undercover with far-right groups in the US for one year. Credit: Courtesy of Patrik Hermansson  Patrik Hermansson, a researcher with Hope Not Hate, a British advocacy group that campaigns against racism and fascism, says far-right activists see Trump as an anti-establishment figure, someone who rallies against the elites. Swedish-born Hermansson spent a year undercover in 2017 as a member of alt-right movements in Europe and the US. Trump’s time in office “put the wind in the sails of far-right groups and populist parties in Europe,” he said.Just hours after TV networks announced that Trump had won the 2016 US election, French far-right leader Marine Le Pen took to the stage of her party headquarters in Paris and celebrated the result. “Americans have voted, they’ve rejected the status quo. What happened last night was not the end of the world, it was the end of a world,” Le Pen said. She wasn’t alone in her jubilation. In neighboring Germany, the then-leader of the far-right Alternative for Deutschland (AfD) party, Frauke Petry, tweeted "this night changes the USA, Europe and the world!"And in Britain, Nigel Farage, former leader of the populist UK Independence Party, compared Trump’s win to the passing of Brexit a few months earlier, saying 2016 was a year of “political revolutions.”Supporting an American president is highly unusual for far-right politicians in Europe.Related: Artists in Germany fear backlash after far-right party wins big A portrait of Sylvia Taschka Credit: Courtesy of Sylvia Taschka Sylvia Taschka, who teaches history at Wayne State University in Detroit, says US presidents usually represent everything European far-right parties oppose: “Unrestrained capitalism. In other words, you know, a globalized free-market economy and an interventionist, some would say imperialist foreign policy," she said. Trump challenged both of those stereotypes, Taschka says, and upended their long-held tradition of anti-Americanism. Taschka, who was born in Nuremberg, Germany, has witnessed the rise of the far-right in Germany with dismay. As a young child growing up in a city famed for its enormous Nazi party rallies in the 1920s and '30s and later the Nazi war trials, she was well aware that support for far-right views still existed. But those views were never openly celebrated."I was not blind when I lived in Germany.  Germany always had a far-right element — even when I grew up — but they were kept more under the lid.”In the last decade, Taschka says that has changed dramatically. But she doesn’t attribute the growing strength of the far-right AfD party to Trump. A changing political landscape and the refugee crisis in 2015 were key driving factors, she says.Related: With far-right topping Dutch polls, EU elections could see Eurosceptics take the leadDutch political scientist Cas Mudde agrees. Mudde, who’s a professor in the School of Public and International Affairs at the University of Georgia, says far-right parties like the National Front in France or the Freedom Party of Austria don’t need to look to Trump for ideological motivation. “They have a much more developed ideological frame than Trump will ever have,” he said.Mudde says President Trump takes little notice of Europe’s populist politicians — but that’s not the case for some of his diplomats. The US ambassadors to Germany and the Netherlands have both been guilty of normalizing Europe’s far-right parties, he says.“One can think of Richard Grenell, in Germany, who was criticized for normalizing the AFD and in the Netherlands, it's even stronger with US Ambassador Pete Hoekstra," Mudde said. It’s alleged that far-right Dutch party leaders met with Hoekstra at the US Embassy to discuss their plans for the future, Mudde says.Former Trump strategist Steve Bannon has also been holding court with far-right parties in Europe over the last couple of years. Bannon plans to convert a monastery outside of Rome into a political academy for ultraconservatives and future populist leaders, a move that has met fierce resistance from Italy’s Culture Ministry. The former White House aide also helped establish a foundation in Brussels aimed at supporting Europe’s far-right parties. But so far, it has received little attention from the parties themselves.French political analyst Jean-Yves Camus, a specialist on the French and European radical right, says parties like the National Front in France have little interest in taking advice from an American. They were doing just fine before Bannon came on the scene, he says.“When Steve Bannon tried to present himself as the man who could unite the extreme right in Europe, he forgot a very important thing: The National Front was a very strong party well before Steve Bannon became known in Washington, DC. So, basically, they did not need him.”The policy of "America first" that Trump promotes has been a mantra of the far-right movement in France since the 1970s. Slogans like “France for the French” or “French first” have been around for some decades, Camus says.     While the rise of populist parties in Europe might seem like an anti-establishment vote, Hermansson says it’s important to recognize that many grassroots supporters believe violence is the only way to achieve their goals. In his first few months undercover with far-right groups, Hermansson was shocked at how openly they condoned the use of violence.“I think in the beginning, I was quite surprised over how openly supportive of violence they were, or at least how implicitly they gave credence to even mass shootings," Hermansson said. Hermansson was in Charlottesville the day of the Unite the Right white supremacist rally in August 2017. He was standing just yards away from Heather Heyer when she was killed by James Alex Fields Jr., an alt-right supporter who plowed his car into a crowd of counterprotesters, injuring 19 people and killing Heyer. Screenshot of video footage of a white power rally in Chartlottesville, Virginia, taken by Patrik Hermansson, who went undercover with far-right groups in the US for one year.  Credit: Courtesy of Patrik Hermansson Hermansson says the incident was hugely traumatic and although he never expected someone would get killed that day, he had become increasingly concerned that things would turn violent. After Hermansson revealed his cover, he received threats from far-right groups for months afterward. Today, he says he feels relatively safe. The alt-right supporters Hermansson met in Europe would most definitely support a second Trump term, he says. In the last year, populist politicians in Europe have also been tweeting their support for another Trump win in November. Political scientist Mudde says their support hinges on the fact that they share a number of common enemies with the US president. They don’t believe a Trump victory will boost their standing in the polls, he says, but it’s better than seeing Biden get into office.Biden is no friend of the far-right, Mudde says.

Patrik Hermansson discusses the spread of conspiracy theories and denialism in the Coronavirus outbreak. Patrik discusses how the divergent theories related to the disease's development have shaped online, far-right spaces, leading to fractious conversations as conspiracy theorists catch the disease and get sick, or where competing theories contradict, and are forced to adapt.The spread of these conspiracies is a good case study in how the far right uses misinformation and false narratives to spread it's hatred. Behind every conspiracy theory there is a conspirator, and too often behind the mask of 'them' there will lie a minority group- the object of their hatred.The Covid 19 outbreak is an especially dangerous media environment, and we must be quick to resist these false narratives by working to build trust between vulnerable groups, the media and governments.

Patrik Hermansson, a Swedish researcher for the British anti-racist group Hope Not Hate, infiltrated far right groups and spent months undercover. His operation now over, he tells his story, including seeing violence and death in Charlottesville, Virginia - the culmination of the ideologies he had witnessed throughout his time with the alt-right. Can you fit a guide to questioning dubious statistics on the back of a postcard? Tim Harford gives it a try. He wants us to be curious: asking, why do we “like” one stat but not another, who wants us to see it, and – behind the headline – what is it really telling us. Job interviews are stressful experiences and have mostly been shown by scientists to be ineffective at picking the best candidate. Catherine Carr explores the cultural and psychological bias that flaws them and asks how we might improve the experience both for the interviewee and interviewer.

HNH is a globalist left wing pressure group based in the United Kingdom founded in 2004 by Nick Lowles, a former editor of the "anti-fascist" Searchlight magazine. It is a registered charity and receives its funding through donations and from the Department for Communities and Local Government. Through 2017 they assigned and heavily financed a number of journalists to infiltrate various right wing activist groups and spread the content over the Internet and use for documentaries, seeking to "expose" the Alt right, as well as attacking other far left wing groups. One of these journalists named Patrik Hermansson decided to report Rev. Dr. David Parry's "Extremists Club" as a supporter of far right extremism, partly due to Paul and David both being invited by former guests on THA Talks to some right wing seminars and public dinners to meet other potential guests. He also included an infiltration and filming of a separate publicly promoted open pagan ritual that Paul often attends which they dramatically described as an "Esoteric Nazi Ritual". In attendance for this ritual was a diverse and select group including Right Wing activist Stead Steadman as well as well know authors and many of which attended after it was advertised through the on line public "meetup" website. As regularly promoted on THA Talks. The Extremist club is small monthly event founded by Rev. Dr. David Parry that involves poetry, drama, as well as outlandish talks on science, politics, religion and culture. At times offensive material that provokes views from all sides of the political and religious land scape is aired, but this is something the club has been proud of preserving. It was set it up originally as a free speech hub following Theresa Mays announcement of trying to outlaw "extremism" a very vague and subjective thing to ban. Hence the name "The Extremists Club". After a break to find a new location the club is up and running and looking forward to 2018!, only it seems "Hope Not Hate" does not like these events of free speech taking place and even after being invited to come and speak them selves, they are trying to pressure the club into closing by intimidating it with labial claims and assassinating the character of the club, Rev. Dr. David Parry, and associates. In this edition David and Paul discuss HNH, their attacks, and the future of the Extremists club.
