People concerned about climate change can find themselves inadvertently aligning with a racist, xenophobic, and antisemitic ideology masquerading as environmentalism. Nostalgia, sustainability, and self sufficiency (in the manner of Cottage Core, an aesthetic promoting simple living in the countryside) are also core principles of Ecofascism.

Many ecofascists follow an ideology "which blames the demise of the environment on overpopulation, immigration, modernization, and over-industrialization, problems that followers think could be partly remedied through the mass murder of refugees in Western countries”. They believe that white people ought to have exclusive control over natural resources, and promote a reciprocal relationship between homeland and an identified nation group.

Past mass shooters have used the principles of ecofacism as reasons for their terrorist attacks in their written manifestos.
