Conspiracy Theories and the Rise of Far-Right Extremism
The chapter explores the role of conspiracy theories in shaping fascist ideologies, with a focus on extremist groups like the Proud Boys and their belief in secret cabals controlling the world. It discusses the mobilizing passions that drive the cultural process towards the far right, the producerist narrative, and historical targets of paranoia and fear in America. The chapter also examines the connections between far-right political parties in Europe and Russia, the phenomenon of authoritarianism, and the anti-democratic approach of the Republican Party.
