Radicalisation amobgst all ages over the internet should be tackled . They should offer lessons in school about how to critically evaluate what you read online. ..
It seems to be a donut effect. The millennial generation who came of age as the internet became popular generally seen more able to critically identify information and misinformation. Probably because it was more obvious in the early days of the internet.
Businesses should be incentivised to offer media literacy courses to their workers and schools should be required to give lessons on critically examining what people post online
its wild that once those kids get brainwashed its almost impossible to get it out of their heads.
they would rather trust an anonymous online creep than their parents.
I just watched a documentary on C4 about an 18 year old “adult” shotgun 3 members of his family dead in Luton. Was slightly on the spectrum, but never left the house and was consuming pedo & death material.. the generations cooked.
We need the equivalent of the Prevent scheme for radicalised pensioners. Have a daily meeting in Spoons.
No doubt this will lead to more calls for authoritarian policing of online spaces yet the political center has no idea why these political views are so palatable, authoritarian policing only further strengthen the far right as it degrades democratic and liberal traditions.
I could elaborate but I think it’s well beyond the scope of this post, But on reflection of countries that fell to Facism I think we overlook the dismal failure of liberalism and it’s failure to encourage critical thought in it’s population.
The article is not very good.
Here is a better timeline.
* Her mother, Emily Carter, had a penchant for criminals – she corresponded with them via a prison penpal scheme.
* She met Dax Mallaburn a member of the Aryan Brotherhood from Ohio, who was serving time on drugs and firearm charges, through such a prison paypal scheme
* Mallaburn moved to the UK into their house in 2017, when Rhianan would have been aged about 11. Mallaburn has a swastika tattoo.
* Mallaburn is said to have sexually groomed Rhianan, and also may have been the person who put her in touch with Christopher Cook of the Atomwaffen division
* Her mother reported her daughter to Prevent in September 2020
* The next month she was arrested and charged for terrorism – charges were dropped a year later
* In April 2021 she was taken into a children’s home following self-harm incidents
* In May 2022 she hung herself in that home.
The big social media platforms are extremely far right, especially relating to any youth culture. Read the comments on anything video game related on Instagram and its all racist and sexist bile, and there is no moderation of it. Im not surprised this happens.
This 14 year old autistic girl described as “the most vulnerable” had no chance of escape from the online nazi cult that groomed her.
Well, I suppose she could have had a parent monitoring her online activities. That might have helped a bit.
Edit: Learned from other commentators that the mother invited a criminal Nazi to live with them fresh out of a US prison. So maybe she really didn’t have a fucking chance
Took about 5 seconds for me to go from “where the fuck are her parents” to “oh they were actively making it happen and the real story here is that, but ‘online grooming’ is this quarters catchphrase”
She was “groomed” because she was white. If she was a radicalised brown girl, she would have “known what she was doing” and had her citizenship revoked.
