June 01, 2021 Over the last few years, TikTok—the social media app that allows users to create and share short videos—has gained immense popularity. With hundreds of millions of users, the platform is particularly popular among younger individuals.

To explore this further, the Center on Extremism (COE) researched the prevalence of posts that include language invoking classic…

May 13, 2021 Extremists are well practiced in taking advantage of crises to elevate their bigoted worldview. That opportunistic streak is on full display as violent conflict rages in Israel and Gaza.
