Attend a conversation with Mariana Rosenblatt, Luke Barnes, and Tessa Harmon on how extremist actors across the ideological spectrum are exploiting digital platforms to respond to, amplify, and glorify violence. Against a backdrop of escalating political violence and deepening polarization in the United States, our report examines how extremist actors across the ideological spectrum are exploiting digital platforms to respond to, amplify, and glorify violence. Drawing on open-source intelligence collected between March and September 2025, the report traces how far-right, far-left, violent Islamist, and nihilistic violent extremist (NVE) communities use cross-platform strategies to recruit followers, justify violence, and sustain propaganda networks.
