List of purported hate groups

Numerous groups have been alleged to be hate groups, which are organized groups or movements that advocate hate, hostility or violence. Allegations of being a hate group are often controversial since the criteria are somewhat subjective. Groups accused of intolerance may claim to be legitimate groups addressing legitimate grievances and may turn the accusation upon the accusers.

This list is composed of groups that have been listed by hate group researchers. These hate group researchers are themselves controversial and have been accused, chiefly by their targets, of profiting by "fear-mongering" and of pursuing ethnic, religious, or anti-religious agendas.
