Everyone has a view, opinion and stance in life. Some just happen to have a very skewed view of reality which take things a little too far. I refer to these people as "Extremists", and as the name suggest they are very extreme people...very extreme.

| THIS IS SPPAAAARRTTTAAA!!! |
Their views while admirably extremely passionate and uncompromising can often put them at odds with people associated with their extremist views. A prime example being the KKK, an organization of people which worships the notion of white supremacy. As the society we live in promotes the concept of freedom of ideas and expression, there are some ideas and expressions which are better left restrained or kept in the dark. Extremist views aren't just left or right, in often has a very strong system of dogma and not merely a a complete right turn or left, of course there are some retarded extremist views which focus on gender inequality or racial superiority. Ill explore some key extremist groups in where I will describe their views and practices.

| Are we Extremist's yet!? |
Before I begin the deconstruction of various extremist groups its of vital importance that you keep in mind that most "extremist" groups are often labelled so by others rather than the group themselves. The groups tend to often seen themselves as radicals rather than extremists. With that in mind its also good to consider the views of other people who may or may not see the groups as extremists, their views are skewed according to their beliefs and associations or relationships to that group. An example being that certain white individuals who believe in white superiority may see the KKK as a legit activist group against race invasion, while the majority see them as an extreme racist organization.
Lets start with one of the most notorious extremist groups the Ku Klux Klan (KKK)

| We're off to see the wizard! The wonderful wizard of Oz! |
A group who's main agenda was white supremacy, white nationalism and anti-immigration. In essence they are extremely racist group against non-whites. Their history is only a few centuries old, with the first Klan founded in 1865, activities ranging in forms of terrorism; murder, arsonist and wounding non-whites, usually at night with their signature white wizard costumes. If your curious about such a group you can head on to their website, though I personally would stay away from such groups.
An example of another extremist movement would perhaps be during world war II, a time where a dictator undertook acts that shook the world!
The holocaust, the Nazis.
It all began when a person known as Adolf Hitler took the throne in Germany and proceeded to unite his country against by making a scapegoat for all the problems they were suffering. It was an extremist movement that hated on Jews and anyone not German. The degree of atrocities exponentially increased the longer Hitler was in power, it began by simply keeping the German blood pure, then slowly began to turn into genocide for Jews. While the holocaust is often debated as either occurring or fictional. I believe that there indeed was a holocaust where many innocent lives were taken under gas showers.
This shows some of the dangers of extremist movements and groups, while everyone is entitled to their own ideology and beliefs. There has to be a limit on the actualization of said ideals, I question of the legality of certain organization which promote racial violence and isolation. Then again I haven't lived their life so I wouldn't know the experiences they gone through to come to that stupid conclusion.
