ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.- The Southern Poverty Law Center claims hate has reached fever pitch levels in the country, culminating in a deadly attack on the U.S. Capitol.
"The threat is as high and probably even higher," said Susan Corke, who is with the Southern Poverty Law Center. "That's because technology and the pandemic in the last year have changed how hate groups operate."
According to the organization's researchers, there were 838 hate groups in America in 2020. In 2019, the group reported 736 hate groups.
The drop is due to shifting tactics, decentralization and being part of broader online groups.
