A royal commission into anti-Semitism in Australia continues to examine potential drivers of extremism, including misogyny, economic hardship and personal grievances. Coverage from both The West Australian and PerthNow says the commission is looking beyond ideology to understand social and individual factors that can contribute to radicalization. The reports indicate that the commission’s ongoing work involves assessing how financial stress and perceived unfairness may interact with extremist beliefs, alongside attitudes rooted in sexism and misogyny. In addition, both outlets reference “personal grievances” as another area under scrutiny, suggesting investigators are considering how individual experiences can shape someone’s vulnerability to extremist narratives.

The reports therefore characterize the effort as an investigation in progress, focusing on explanatory factors that may help explain how extremism develops and spreads.
