While this is not the first time that sentiments such as racism, anti-Semitism, and misogyny have gained widespread popularity, it could be argued that the means through which these ideas are being communicated and the ways in which they are being expressed have transformed. One aspect that has not changed is the presence of hate crime in the locations where RWE actors or sentiments are prevalent. These hate crimes can cause fear in the communities that are being targeted by RWE messengers, thereby disrupting community harmony and public safety as a whole. </p> </div> </div> </div>}, number={2}, journal={The Journal of Intelligence, Conflict, and Warfare}, author={Meyers, Sarah}, year={2021}, month={Dec.}, pages={1–14} }
