About this listen
In this episode, we speak with Amarnath Amarasingam, Assistant Professor in the School of Religion and Department of Political Studies at Queen’s University. We discuss the changing contours of extremism in the digital age, the role of technology in moving the fringe into the mainstream, and his co-authored journal article about far-right extremism on Facebook from 2020. Topics include the contemporary state of political extremism in Canada and abroad, how comedy and satire fit into extremist messaging, and how extremist movements are rebranding and taking advantage of new digital platforms.
