Once Recruited
Hate groups use techniques similar to religious cults in
recruiting and retaining members.
Once involved, the youth are encouraged to isolate themselves
from their former lives (parents, family, friends) and to
commit full-time to the movement, which often means engaging
in illegal activity.
Young people find it difficult, if not impossible, to leave.
Hate groups foster an atmosphere of violence, abuse and
intimidation, often forcing new recruits to commit criminal
and violent acts.
The racists learn so much about the recruit's life, that it is
next to impossible to withdraw.
Youthful recruits with second thoughts often find themselves
the target of threats and violence if they try to drop out of
the scene.
