Hate and violence: Chronicle of right attacks in Germany shaken!

What is currently moving people in Germany? Unfortunately, the answer often seems to be shaped by hate and agitation. According to [Belltower News] (https://www.belltower.news/rechtsextreme-stoeren- csds-chronics-right-right-right and racist, the inhibition threshold for open hatred in society is terrifyingly low. Again and again reports come about violent attacks that not only meet individuals but entire groups and thus act as "embassy acts".

The chronicle of right -wing violence in the second half of June shows how widespread such acts are. On June 15, for example, 10 to 15 hooded right -wing extremists attacked an event in Bad Freienwalde and injured at least three people. Another example occurred on June 14th in Pforzheim, where 90 neo -Nazis held a "counter -demonstration" against Christopher Street Day (CSD) and chanted queer -anti -queer slogans. In the same week, a 24-year-old woman was racistically insulted, spat and attacked in Berlin.

The terrifying numbers

Statista recorded a maximum of around 39,400 extremist and 60,000 politically motivated crimes in 2023. Especially in the area of ​​right -wing extremism there was a new record with 25,700 crimes, including about 1,150 acts of violence.

they are the incidents that people are increasingly concerned. According to the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA), politically motivated crime also includes hate crime that can be directed against individuals, groups or institutions. It is particularly worrying that in 2024 44% of hate postings on the Internet were assigned to the right spectrum, which underlines the brutalization of the language and the risk of possible radicalization.

dealing with extremism

How does society deal with these tendencies? The BKA has taken measures to act against increasing hate crime. A centralized recording of the criminal police registration service (KPMD-PMK) and the establishment of the right-wing extremism file (Red) are just a few steps to combat the growing threat. Actions against hate postings are organized regularly to sensitize the population to the topic.

The facets of extremism are diverse. Right -wing extremist actions often aim to undermine the basics of a democratic society. The BKA describes it an ideology that is shaped by the acceptance of the inequality of people. Such views not only contribute to physical attacks, but also support a structure in which discriminatory thoughts can gain a foothold.

whether it is attacks on events such as the CSD or attacks on individuals - the numbers and reports clearly show that dealing with hate and extremism is more important than ever. In this regard, prevention and clarification are the keys to improve social climate and prevent such acts in the future.
