its every piece of mass media and culture

but holding dissident political views that are counter to a society where "desmond is amazing" is a star doesn't require an insidious radicalization process

it's a normal, healthy response to be disgusted or repelled by many features of modern life. Excesses that are embraced and promoted by cultural elites, while at the same time setting up very narrow parameters for discourse to examine the culture.

Clear-eyed, and clear-minded people can come to these conclusions. Free of any spoopy "radicalization" process.

Life, life-experience, accrued wisdom and knowledge is all that is required.

In fact, the whole notion of "radicalization" in these conditions is quite an obnoxious straw-man

poor use of language tbh

framing by dishonest actors at best

very simplistic

But yeah when I say an ideology is radical I'm comparing it to contemporary society

your takes are simplistic and wear the same dishonest hallmarks you can get from watching cable news

very farraday-ish

contemporary society is radical
