Right -wing extremism in Brandenburg: Alarming increase in young people!

Barnim, Deutschland - The protection of the constitution has published the alarming numbers on right -wing extremism in Germany, and the situation is anything but rosy. In 2024, an increase in extremist personal potential in Brandenburg was recorded by 5,505 people, which means an increase of 570 people compared to 2023. It is particularly striking that two thirds of this potential are assigned to the area of right -wing extremism. Minister René Wilke describes the challenges that arise from disinformation and hybrid attacks, and underlines increasing radicalization among young people, who often mix up different ideologies without reflection.

Did you know that the personal potential of violent right -wing extremists increased to around 15,300 people? This frightening number is in the context that the overall potential of right -wing extremist persons in Germany, according to the constitutional protection in 2024, exceeds the 50,250 people brand, which represents a powerful plus of 9,650 compared to the previous year.

statistics and dangers

The numbers speak for themselves: In 2024, over 37,835 right -wing extremist crimes were registered, which represents an alarming increase of 47.4 % compared to 2023. Among them are 1,281 acts of violence, which makes an increase of 11.6 %. The xenophobic assault offenses that have also increased with 916 offenses are particularly worrying.

But it's not just about violence. The propagation of anti -migration and anti -Semitic positions is also increasingly about social issues such as the Middle East conflict. In addition, 360 right -wing extremist demonstrations took place in 2024, a level similar to in the previous year. According to the reports, the focus was on asylum, migration and queer topics.

A look into the future

Further attention applies to the development of right -wing extremist structures. The AfD has around 1,400 people in the right -wing extremist area, which corresponds to an increase of 350 people. In contrast, "Die Heimat", formerly NPD, had to accept a decline to 120 people, while "The Third Way" had a small plus of 10 people. Particularly unstructured right -wing extremist potential amounts to 1,900 people.

The right -wing extremist scene in Germany is a growing threat, according to the statistics. With the increasing number of extremist associations and a high number of acts of violence, the security authorities must consistently tackle it in order to offer society a piece of security. The registration of right -wing extremist crimes in the period from 2014 to 2024 also show that a good overview is necessary here.

All in all, the report shows that the topics of right -wing extremism and violence are among the most pressing challenges of today, and it is important to remain vigilant. The changes in the scene and the increasing radicalization are clear signals that something has to happen here. It is all the more important to face and clarify these topics. In society there is a responsibility to actively deal with these developments and to work for a diverse and tolerant community.
