The next batch of incels/supremacists/hate mongers are being indoctrinated as you read this. It's your teens, your husbands, your friends.
Boredom + Unfocused Anger + Online propaganda = a breeding ground for hatred.
Fight early and often with empathy. Challenge black and white or all or nothing thinking.
Promote critical thinking skills as often as you can - hatred short circuits logic like no other.
Please don't be complacent. Once you lose them, it's hard to deprogram.

^^^ Three months later and I am sure you are all seeing the effects of boredom and constant being online with bad faith "people", trolls, and bigots.
I can't stress the importance of actual human contact to those most vulnerable to this. Keep your teens and young adults as engaged with reality as you can.
If you aren't seeing how fast Q Anon can radicalize people, you aren't paying attention.
Those vulnerable are hurting.
