ADL Deletes ‘Glossary of Extremism and Hate’ Amid Flurry of Right-Wing Criticism

The Anti-Defamation League removed its Glossary of Extremism after criticism from Elon Musk and conservatives, though some TPUSA-related content remains on the site.

  • On Tuesday, the Anti-Defamation League removed its Glossary of Extremism and Hate, containing over 1,000 entries, effectively immediately after backlash from Elon Musk and Republican lawmakers.
  • The entry named Turning Point USA because ADL said TPUSA promoted conspiracy theories and included bigoted statements, surfacing after late TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk was killed on September 10.
  • Despite removing the glossary, Elon Musk shared posts and wrote `The ADL hates Christians, therefore it is a hate group` on Sunday, criticizing the organization's listings of TPUSA.
  • Conservative leaders criticized the listing, saying Donald Trump Jr., Rep. Anna Paulina Luna , and others slammed the ADL’s portrayal, while an ADL spokesperson told Jewish Insider inclusion did not mean extremism.
  • The move follows previous ADL reassessments, when the group removed ADL's anti-racism resources after 2020 and ended the A World of Difference program earlier this year under CEO Jonathan Greenblatt.
