Radicalisation on one side always leads to radicalisation on the other, ending up with both sides using the other's ridiculous fringe ideas as justification for their own.
And it all starts from people reading the endless, pointless, contention-filled threads like this, where two sides are arguing bitterly about nonsense, not giving in an inch, and not resolving anything.
What do you mindless drones out there think this is doing to your brain? Has anyone of any gender been helped by reading any of these stupid arguments about sharks and bears?
The answer is no. The younger generation who was raised by these terrible posts and terrible, wastes-of-time arguments and persecution olympics is desperately, chronically ALONE.
So yah, lets all just keep stirring this soup of loneliness as we all train ourselves to stop socializing like humans and view everything through the lense of internet arguments. I'm sure it will start to show positive impact annnnny day now.
There was no radicalization on the other side.
There definitely was.
Cyberbullying german girls because the german word "digga" sounds similar to "nigger" and unironically advocating that germans shouldn't use words that sound similar to slurs in english because "they should be responsible and avoid hurting others".
Or tankies simping for the mass murder of "anti-revolutionaries" in the USSR or the PRC
