ADL REGIONAL UPDATE

Extremists Widely Defeated at the Polls, but a Few Make Inroads
Political prognosticators feared the 2021 off-year elections could usher in a new era of extremists in elected office. While the worst-case scenario did not materialize, the election results appear to show an electorate that is not entirely averse to candidates with extremist (and extremist-adjacent) platforms and ideologies, signaling a potentially alarming trend ahead of the 2022 midterm elections.

Tucker Carlson’s Dangerous Propaganda: The Government is Coming for You
Tucker Carlson’s special “documentary” series, “Patriot Purge,” aired online the first week of November 2021, via the Fox Nation streaming service. This series promotes many of the false conspiracy theories Carlson promotes on his regular show on Fox News—the Biden Administration is on a “manhunt” for conservatives; the FBI played a role in the January 6 insurrection; the military wants to purge any soldier whose point of view differs from that of the current government; and finally, that the new “second war on terror” is aimed at what Carlson calls “legacy Americans” who will be labeled “domestic
terrorists,” put in a government database and imprisoned in solitary confinement.

From the ADL and Hillel: We All Must Play a Role in Addressing Campus Antisemitism "A mezuzah ripped from a doorpost of the Hillel at Northeastern University. An advertisement for a Jewish event at Emerson College defaced with antisemitic graffiti. A swastika, a Star of David, and the words 'Is Illegal' drawn on a car belonging to a Chabad rabbi at Santa Monica College. And just this past weekend, a Jewish fraternity house at George Washington University vandalized, its Torah scroll doused in laundry detergent.


These are just a few of the antisemitic incidents reported at campuses across the country in recent weeks, as students returned to campus for the Fall semester. They are reminders that antisemitism — that ugly, irrational hatred that has plagued Jews for millennia — is accelerating on American college and university campuses nationwide."

Nation of Islam Pushes Anti-COVID-19 Vaccine Message, Alongside Conspiracy Theorists

Nation of Islam (NOI) had already widely disseminated its directive that Black people refuse the vaccine. Over a year later, the NOI and its leading members have continued their unrelenting promotion of anti-vaccine messages in social media posts, print materials, sermons and beyond. More recently, anti-vaccine advocacy has led NOI members to collaborate with and be promoted by various individuals and groups outside of the NOI, including conspiracy theorists and
