Article here. Excerpt:
'Misogyny is a key element of the so-called alt-right movement and there is a strong link between men’s rights activism and white supremacy, a report has found.
The Anti-Defamation League’s report argues hatred of women is a “dangerous and underestimated component of extremism”.
The research – titled When Women are the Enemy: The Intersection of Misogyny and White Supremacy – found the increasingly popular narrative of white men as victims of feminism has been a key driving force behind the misogyny which has become rife in far right movements.'

Why would the ADL try to link...
... the MRM to white supremacy? Answer: the MRM stance against circumcision. This should come as no surprise.
Shocking!
According to the original article at the UK news site "The Independent" the ADL's study found that ‘Misogyny has the POTENTIAL to act as a GATEWAY into the white supremacist world,’ It should come as no surprise that such an organization has done its own study and found that what it thought was true turns out, in fact to be, WOW!, true.
In the technology age it seems that just about anyone can publish the "findings" of a "study" and be deemed credible with little or no concern given to the scientific method and the role it didn't play in the "discovery" of their "findings". What's more, it should come as no surprise that the article was written by Maya Oppenheim, the Independent's doubtlessly openminded and clearly qualified "Women's Correspondent". I am going out on a limb here when I say that Maya O was probably given free rein to entitle her article all by her little ol' self since nowhere in the article does it actually say that misogony is a key element of white supremacy.
As is true with nearly all "social justice warriors" one only needs to remain in a semi-conscious state to realize that any disagreement with them equates to hatred and the potential to devastate humanity with discordant ideas that don't agree with their own.
What I really do find to be genuinely shocking, however, is that so many of those involved in todays politically correct government supported hate groups are often those who have themselves experienced oppression and injustice or, at very least, claim to have. It is, therefore, genuinely disheartening that one generation can experience a holocaust - even if it is proverbial in nature - and a few generations down the road can, themselves, become purveyors of their own special brand of hatred that they see no problem with and that causes no contradiction in their own minds with what they [claim to] have experienced and overcome.
In closing, I should like to quote the report's author - a woman, no less - who says (according to Maya O, if she is to be believed after that rather daring hook line) that "“The hatred and resentment of women voiced by groups like involuntary celibates and men’s rights activists is disturbingly similar to white supremacists’ hatred of minorities."
Would it be feeding my little inner white supremecist self if I were to suggest the following correction to the typos that the author's editor apparently overlookd: “The hatred and resentment of men voiced by feminist groups is disturbingly similar to white supremacists’ hatred of minorities." ?
Exactly
If you compare feminist thought with racist thought, you find they're identical. Feminists just expanded the target. Instead of going after black men, they go after all men. Black men were supposedly rapacious monsters lusting after white women. Today all men are rapacious monsters lusting after all women. Now, the feminists don't hang you; they just destroy your life, your career, and your reputation in the media--no due process needed. MeToo# is the feminist version of the hanging tree.
