> This phenomena is how I've been mostly converted to racism

I'm sightly surprised that someone would just come out and happily admit that they've been radicalised by the internet and are comfortable being a racist.



I was mostly using the term for shock value to emphasize the point and to help drive home the fact that not being able to find the counter-arguments/deradicalization can be a very bad thing!

(Annoyingly, there's so many meanings of "racist" that it can apply to anywhere from 99% to 1% of the population, depending on which of the main definitions are used)
