I've read a lot of people in here recently upset at the fact their friends and relatives have fallen victim to alt-right propaganda, which is just awful for them. I'm lucky that my family have all gone from highly conservative catholics to pretty left wing as time has gone on, but a couple of my friends recently have been re-posting stuff on social media from Tommy Robinson and Jordan Peterson (sen?) and when I've tried to argue with them that Robinson in particular is a vicious racist thug that should be jailed, they tell me I've been brainwashed by politically correct propaganda from the mainstream media.
So how do we possibly deradicalise these people? Honestly I have no idea if facts don't get through, or if they don't acknowledge that all women aren't some giant force for evil to be defeated or that obvious racist misogynist scumbags aren't racist and misogynist. I'm honestly at a loss.
