This article analyses the phenomenon of anti-genderism from two different aspects: first, as a (meta-)political strategy elaborated by protagonists of the intellectual (extreme) New Right; second, following the studies of the Bielefeld Institute for Interdisciplinary Research on Conflict and Violence, as a conglomeration of elements of the syndrome of Group-Related Misanthropy (Heitmeyer 2002–2011; Zick and Küpper 2021). The first aspect focuses on the relatively small number of right-wing protagonists and activists for whom the topic of anti-genderism is an appropriate means to increase their radius of action and their degree of acceptance and effectiveness even within predominantly liberal and democratic societies and to establish worldwide networks (for example Datta 2020, 2021; Mascolo 2023). The second aspect focuses on the mostly unconscious human tendency to prejudice and implicit devaluations within societies—a psychological dynamic which becomes a ‘highly welcome’ means to protagonists of the extreme right in order to trigger negative emotions of anger and hatred. The two aspects complement each other, in so far as widespread prejudices and relatively well veiled authoritarian policy offers come together in the thematic area of anti-genderism and thus develop a special dynamic.
