~ interesting article.

Ive always thought people with low IQs are prone to being racist, homophobic etc. it just makes sense.

 there are some keen minds to the right, i'm not doubting that (and i know better )

the problem is the motivations of the 'leaders' who are invariably self-interested types who do take advantage of the less able . even in their own ranks.

A tentative table on far-right radicalismPosted on December 9, 2012

Recently I’ve been researching the far-right and became intrigued by a section in the reportBlind Spot? Security Narratives and Far-Right Violence in Europe, in which the author identifies bot...Preventing and Countering Far-Right Extremism, a valuable country-by-country report on these movemen...

I’ve become interested in whether this three-way categorisation is valuable or if it is an oversimpl...

For this reason, I’ve made this table listing what I consider to be the key characteristics of each ...

This typology is of far-right radicalism, not far-right extremism. Therefore all the groups in it are radical (in that their politics diverge substantially from the mainstream) but not all are extremists (hostile to liberal democracy and condoning illegal activity, particularly violence).

The title says “tentative” for a reason. A big reason I established this blog was to get feedback on ideas while they are still in the formative stage. I am keen to hear thoughts (through comments, Twitter or email) on what you think this table may have right or wrong, and why.

So the OP got this information from some obscure left wing blogger who lives 13,000 kilometers away in another country and was re-posted on a web site called "Addicting Info" (whatever that is). I guess this is good enough for self-righteous lefties to draw a conclusion.
But really no one cares what lefties think anyway, they are just pernicious little weasels.

i never even bothered checking...

"Addicting Info started as a resource to discredit all the lies and propaganda that the right-wing spreads........."

all news sites seek to fund their publications, some to make a profit 😉

some out of frustration with the msm. that doesn't make them dodgy or whatever else people hope to imply.

you too are right, so why be selective ? time to unleash that critical eye further 🙂 no need to spare the big guys just because you may find material more to your liking there. they are built on vested interests after all.
